Managed to get some lightly used strettons off eBay for $130 and they arrived today. Has the outer, inner and arm guard included (all seem to be medium in sizing) which makes the $130 a pretty good price. I purchased them mainly to see what the difference between these and the remfry thigh pads are so thought I'd get the strettons as you don't see many of these in Australia.
First impressions are that the Strettons definitely feel more firm than the remfry's. The inner thigh guard on the stretton's seems a better design too as it wraps from front to inside your thigh. Can't try them on properly as I'm at work at the moment but they do look very nice and looking forward to giving them a whirl.
Could anyone help me out on what the sizing actually is based on this - SFS-OTGR-AM and SFS-ITGR-HL? I figure OTGR is Outer Thigh Guard and ITGR is Inner Thigh Guard Right but I am at a loss as to what AM and HL stand for?

I think HL is hip large.
I'm sure the code on mine changed to this when the hip protector was added. Make sure you really bend and shape them to your legs to make them fit properly.

Used them tonight and they were very good. Seem a tad bulkier than my Romsey but that's probably because I've used those for a while and have moulded to me
