Is it a wrap around waist one or do you attach it to outer thigh pad band

attach it to the outer thigh pad string, although i have tried wrapping it around with its own string, that still doesnt make any difference

Is it an elasticated waistband that does up with velcro?

Glue it to your inner thigh. Around the clock protection, plus a bit of convenience

Is it a string in outer thigh if so if that's becomes a little slack inner will slip as used to have it before using ones with thicker Velcro straps

What pads are they

the string on the outer thigh pad is the velcro sort, but the inner thigh pad waistband is just a piece of string.

I'm sure Buzz "The walking thigh pad" Rockport will turn up soon! He's the man to ask about them!

The only thing I can think of is to try and line the inside of it with something that doesn't slip? Maybe lycra? If you have an old compression top, that material might work....seems like a bit of a faff though.....

Hahaha.

in answer to your question, not sure why it doesn't fit, have you tried to tie it to your outer thigh pad?
sounds like it just doesn't fit you.

Depends on the protection level you want as hawk ones I had last season were not up to much

Plus what size you want
