I LOVE THESE KNEE PADS! I play paintball for the college NCPA team, and I heard from a teammate that these knee pads were great. He wasn't wrong. I ordered a pair the second I got home. The only issue I had was with USPS holding the package in the facility in Texas, but I contacted Hydra, and they sorted it all out for me and threw in a barrel cover and a patch for my troubles! This is top-notch customer service and a great product. I took some challenging dives and slides this weekend and didn't feel any! They do run a tad bit small but that's a plus in my opinion because it stops them from sliding up and down my legs. All in all I love my Hydra knee pads!!!
