Leatt Brace Impact Shorts 3DF 5.0 Adult

Update: Important to nite these are not compatible with articulated knee braces/pads. Even if they are Leatt brand, which mine are. The pads over lap the thigh armour pad and create an uncomfortable situation.Original review: I am 5' 8" 175lbs with around a 32-34 waist depending on the garment. The Medium fit me perfect, form fitting enough to stay in place with a pair of boxer briefs on under them to keep they clean. They need to fit snug so the armour doesn't shift out place, but they fabric is soft and breathes great.Very high quality, would order again for sure.

great protection that is actually very low profile and fits athletic people well. One of the best protection peices I have purchased.

The Leatt Brace Impact Shorts 3DF 5.0 Adult offer exceptional protection and comfort. They fit well, providing excellent coverage without restricting movement. The padding absorbs impacts effectively, making them ideal for high-risk activities. Highly recommended for anyone seeking reliable protective gear.

I ordered an XL per the size chart and it's a little small. All of my shorts are XL and fit fine including similar padded snowboard shorts and chamois. When I squatted down into my descending position I could hear stitches breaking. If you have a big rear end and thighs like myself be aware and maybe order one size up if you're at the top of the size spectrum its showing you.Also I hoped the lower padding would cover the side better than it does. I have a big scrape and bruise from a slideout where knee protection doesn't cover. I bought these specifically to protect the sides of my thighs but the injury is not covered by these shorts.With all that being said it's still top notch Leatte quality, but we'll see how it holds up to abuse and I intend to update my review. I have like 10 days before my next ride where these would be needed. If I find something more suitable I may opt for that instead.--UPDATE--It's been comfortable to wear almost all day. Stitches didn't rip anywhere that I can see. Padding for the seat area would be nice but it's not a deal breaker. I'm not exactly sitting while doing downhill MTB. The other day I tore the sidewall of my tire and took a little spill. No bruises on my hip this time!

I am about 6' 185lb, 34x34 pants, atheltic build. Large size fits perfect. Already tested them on the trail and they feel great while riding moto.

These shorts fit well and I almost forgot I’m wearing them. Hopefully they hold up over time. The “don’t wash but drip dry” care instructions are confusing!

These are the best I found if you want hard hip protection, they run true to size but should be worn snug.I can’t even tell I’m riding in them that’s how comfortable they are, I use for motorcycle on dirt trails.

Need a pad to sit on. Returned.
