GN legend pads sizing

Looking at purchasing a pair of GN Legend pads.
Anyone know how they currently come up size wise as 6ft so bordering on large

I am 6'1" with disproportionately long legs and a disproportionately short body and the standard mens legend pads are absolutely fine on me.  I take an inside leg measurement of 34" in suits.

They are excellent pads

I’m 6’1 and a half and needed the large ones, the standard were like shin pads, this was in 2018.

This wasn’t the case a few years before with my old ones, 2015, which are actually larger than the larges ones I got later.

I am 6ft1 and have some gn pads, medium sized. They are fractionally short for me.
I would suggest the medium ones should be OK for you.
Taller than 6ft 1 and you will likely need large.

I'm looking to buy GN legend pads. I'm 5.7 height. Would you recommend Adult (Standard /Medium) size or Small size?

If Small fits well, then only GN UK site shows it's available but here in Australia where I live only Adult / Medium is available. Not sure if Medium would suit for this height? Pls advise

I'm about 5'8, and I use Small Mens Legends. I do have pretty short legs mind you. I think you're better off going for Small Mens. GN tend to be a touch smaller than others - best bet though is to go into a shop and try some on to see!

Thanks. I'm in sydney and unable to find Small Men's size as all stores has Medium (Adult) size only. I can try the adult one which will give understanding if I need Small but what's the best way access the Small size legend pads from Australia.

Wouldn't really know sorry - your best bet is to try out the adult GN ones and see if the fit is okay. If so, then medium Legends should be fine. Otherwise, I'd either check with your retailer to see if they could order any in, or get another set of pads other than Legends if they don't come in Small Mens

Had tried the adult size and it doesn’t fit to knee roll correct. Small men size should be good, trying options how to get one from UK.
