Anyone got these im looking for some opinons on them? (open to an alternative if someone knows something better) 45 quid from crc doesn't seem bad and i had some crashes on the weekend so i think its time to invest. Read a lot about them sizing rather large and trying before I buy isnt an option so im an unsure what size to order for someone thats around 6ft 3?? CRC has measurements for the t top and bottom opening but im also concerned about the length of the shin guards.

Yes i have them, buy them mate there superb. there pretty adjustable with the tension straps so you could get away with a slightly bigger size. mines a Large but i have fairly big legs however im only 5'7'' but the length is perfect. im not sure if there all the same length anyway..

Buy from CRC, if they dont fit send them back via the Collect plus scheme- its free to return the item that way. In the mean time you can order the ones that do. had to do that with a few bits of clothing that seem to think Large is for size 0 models

I've got these, got the biggest size as I have massive legs from years of rugby :p

Can't fault them at all, really comfortable, nice and cool when riding, can get a bit warm when stood around but I don't think there is a pair that wouldnt :p

Also find that the knee cap bit sits really nicely on my knee, which was always been a gripe with cheaper pads like some 661's etc :)
