So I nabbed a pair if these thigh pads.
A few thoughts, firstly for £11 they are good value.
But the are very big.
They also need a load of shaping (might need to get the hair drier our)
They seem well made and look good.
Not sure they will nudge out my sg pads from my bag though.





P.s. I have missed this thread...! 😂😂


I nabbed these too, well impressed with them for £11

Got myself one of those Klubb thigh pad set, and like what Buzz has said the main pad is very tall but for 11 pounds delivered I dont think you can complain.

The quality seems really decent for the price and I can see myself using them in the future, theyre not too bulky and appear to provide some good protection.

I have a theory as to why they could be so cheap, maybe they are a batch of pads made in error (i.e. the manufactures got the wrong template or made to wrong size spec)

Popped in GCCC East Sydney a few days back and noticed the Off-the-shelf Remfreys. Not cheap but very light and thin, tempted to bring some back

yeah they've sold those for a few years now. I have two (bought one of a fellow forumite and another off eBay) and they are much better than the other offerings, but they are rather expensive. I just love how you can do them as tight as you want due to the whole band being able to attach to the velcro. They have a low profile too, so they never get in the way.

Think they were just in the sale at 50% off, along with pads, gloves, bags etc. I bought a set but they're way too big for me. Even the waist strap is too big. I'll offer them to some teammates before sticking em on eBay. Shame tho as I really like them, actually feel better than than the Aero P2s I reckon.

Most likely made from cheap foam.

Yep, but P2’s seem to constantly fit the bill as a midrange option.

The only ones I’ve tried  that have been as comfy were @petehosk RS thighpads
