After at least 10 years, it was finally time for an upgrade for my knee and shin protection. I’m psyched to be wearing the Dual Axis Knee and Shin Guard by Leatt. They provide ample protection and are comfortable for all-day wear.
I personally like the hard plastic protection, but Leatt makes several variations of knee and shin guards. A great benefit to the Dual Axis design is that the knee pivots with your natural kneed movement which both offers amazing protection and also keeps the guard in place.
For sizing, I went strictly off of Leatt’s size chart. I’m 5’10 and 160 pounds. I would say I have bigger thighs, which can sometimes be an issue for products like this. Again, I went by the size chart and ordered the size large. They fit great, and there’s a lot of adjustability. The only part that feels big is the knee. Not a huge deal, but there is some extra space in the knee cup.
If you’re ready to upgrade your knee and shin protection, check out Leatt. They have many variations so you can get exactly what you want. I’ve never had protection more comfortable than Leatt. I also wear the 3DF Airfit Body Protector which I love. Using our provided link(s) to purchase supports us as we get a small kickback from your purchase. We appreciate the support!
