Review on Bear Grips Shin Guards Sleeves 2.0: 5mm Padded Leg Protection for Crossfit, Rope Climbing, and Deadlifting Activities - No Zipper Design, Multi-Color Options, Available as Single or Pair by Bobby Frazier

Revainrating 2 out of 5

. Climbing and box jumping and they're great for that. What lowers my rating is the quality.

I bought these shin guards primarily for climbing and box jumping and they are great for that. What lowers my score is the quality of the zippers. The zippers are small and weak. I've worn these shields maybe 6-8 times and one zipper doesn't work...maybe it's not a big deal...it doesn't seem to interfere with my workout but for $50 for a medium size I want something that will do my basics Standing up to demands... protecting against rope burns and box hits is easy. These shin guards were hand washed and hung out to dry after training. I like the silicone in the upper; The guards stay where they are. I wish the silly logos were smaller or gone, but all the guards I observed had over-the-top logos all over the place. My calves are 15.5 inches max = Medium fits perfectly.

Pros
  • quality construction
Cons
  • not reliable
