Your cart is empty.X-Gear is the ultimate set of pads for skating enthusiasts looking for a higher level of protection, convenience and performance. Not all protective gear is created equal and while these may look like basic pads, they are anything but. For protection, the high impact plastic caps are durable and have flex notches to wrap around the elbows and knees for a slimmer profile when they are on. Looking for comfort, they are anatomically designed, right/left specific and feature breathable mesh, shock absorbing inserts and anti-abrasion materials. Convenience goes beyond the typical, easy on and off function. X-Gear has quick release hooks and memory straps so skaters can adjust the strap length once, use the hook closure and have the same consistent fit on the elastic every time. In addition, the soft padded parts of the gear are removable and washable. Four elastic loops keep the padding attached to the caps and when skating gets a little too sweaty, the pads can be removed to wash, air out and reduce odors.

These are a must have to avoid injury. They work great when you fall. They stay in place and are easy to get on and off. I like the option of not having to readjust for size everytime I want to remove and put them back on. These are a sound investment.

If you happen to fall exactly on the point of your elbow, or exactly on your kneecap, I think they will offer good protection. any place much outside of that exact area and you might as well not have a pad. The contact area of my old pads are truly 3 times this size on both the elbows and the knees. The wrist guards don't seem very substantial at all, in fact they are very flimsy. Nowhere as rugged as my older, much cheeper wrist guards. If these new XL wrist guards were as worn as my old pair, which are still quite rugged, they would have a hole worn completely through them and you'd have no wrist reinforcement at all. My goal is protection. I do not feel protected with these flimsy wrist guards and very small knee and elbow pads. FAIL.

I love that the kneepads can be fastened over my clothing without having to slide a giant rubber band over my legs! They wrist guards are super comfortable and not as long as my old roller blade wrist guards. I don't really use the elbow pads. I tried some other brands but I keep coming back to Roller Blade knee and wrist guards! For reference, I am female, 5'5" and 140 lbs.

Rollerblade equip is top of the line. I like the button type attach/detachments. You don't have to undo the velcro every time.I haven't skated for over 20 years and noticed that all the protection offers a bit less coverage than in the past. It still covers the likely impact areas well.

I am 5,9 184lbs. I bought the Xtra large set. Fit pretty well, maybe just slightly too large for myself but with clothing on it is a perfectly snug fit. I wear these with pants and a sweater. Would not trust these without a layer of clothing underneath as they do slide. I have gotten hurt before as the padding slipped away from my elbow when I wasn't wearing my sweater under them. Sweating in these is to be expected but that doesn't bother me.Still these deserve at least a 4 star. Why? If you get a good fit, these will do their job. I have fallen multiple times, and I get back up each time like nothing happened thanks to these pads absorbing the impact. The hooks make putting these pads on with clothing really easy and I usually don't have to adjust the straps at all. Maybe once every week. What's more I do not feel my movement inhibited.Giving these a 5 star because as my first protective gear purchase I am overall very satisfied with my purchase.

I'm glad I spent a little extra to get these pads. They have quick release latches on the sides so you can put them on last instead of having to put them on before skates and they remember the length you had them set to with some velcro straps. Very, very comfortable and soft as well. I Took a minor spill so I was able to test them and they definitely do their job. Other than the action of going down on a knee I didn't even notice or feel it though the pads.Also, if you put them on your shins you can pull them up under jeans or other pants if you like (as long as they aren't super slim fit).

My daughter and I like to rollerblade, but since I took a fall a couple of years ago without wearing protection, I have become more timid getting back out there. These really helped with the mental safety aspect. I knew if I was headed for trouble, I could use my hands to buffer the fall. My one error was that I bought the large size and should have bought the mediums. That is my only reason for 4 stars versus 5, and that's on me. The knee pads had to be fully tightened to stay put. I'm an advocate now to protect beforehand versus afterward. You'll enjoy your experience more just having the added confidence. Plus, these look great!

Quick disconnects make these pads very fast to take on and off, although they don't stay in place as well as a pad with a full sleeve that you have to slide into. I usually have to re-adjust these after a fall but it's not a big deal. I've fallen on these many times and they continue to keep me intact. The construction is solid so far after a month of use.
