Review:
       During training I observed people continuously reaching down to adjust their shin guards because they would turn or slip down. After observing this I decided I wanted to get a pair of shin guards I could rely on to stay in place. It just so happened at that time I found these rash guards on sale online for $19.99 which is a great deal since the suggested retail price of $49.99 seems out of line and expensive.
         These rash guards have a great design, the neoprene provides a nice fit that wont slip or turn. Another benefit of the neoprene is it will also warm up your calf area to help loosen you muscles. While training I usually end up with cramps in my calves during or after training but when I wear these thanks to the neoprene I no longer have that problem. There is also a Velcro strap on the tops of these shin guards to keep them up so whether its kicking a shield, Thai pads or checking a kick I know these shin guards will stay where I need them and protect my shins.
         Some negative aspects of these shin guards are due to the style it does take a little more effort to put on and take off as they are slip on and slip off. After 1 year of use these rash guards have a small rip along where the padding is sewn to the neoprene, I am still however using them during training. Based off my experience with these Contender Fight Sports Rashguards I give them 3.5 fists out of 5
