Alpinestars - Reflex Elbow Guards
Little over priced but I'm happy with them. The built-in arm sleeves are a bit tight but I have larger than average biceps.

Yul (Gainesville, FL)
Alpine Elbow Guards
I am 5'10,215 lbs, somewhat athletic. I went with the L/XL. Other reviews say the straps are a little bit long, but I don't think they are designed to be tightened too much (so you don't cut off your circulation), straps are essentially there to hold pads in place and to make it easy to take the guards on and off. I wear these under my riding jacket. The price is more than reasonable and I can't complain. The Velcro is strong, so try not to get it on material or else you could pull some threads. Strongly recommend this product!!

good not perfect
I ordered large, straps were way too long but mesh sleeve fit ok, some of reviews complained about the mesh sleeves being way too small so I think I did the right thing by ordering large. To remedy the strap problem I cut the straps down and re-sewed the velcro back on now it fits right.

Protect your elbows :-)`
I got the Extra-Large, which would be way too big for me normally, the reason I got this size is that I wanted them to go OVER my jacket, on the outside, so they work perfectly. I have elbow protection in my jacket, but with these you can cinch up the straps and make the elbow more stable, keeping the inside protection from moving from side to side. If you have small arms though, I'd go one size smaller for this method.

Ken Kraft (Lake Stevens, WA)
Alpinestars - Reflex Elbow Guards
Pros: Much more durable than expected. Easy on/off. Very comfortable under blue jean jacket or sweatshirt. Most people can’t tell I have them on. Cons: A little bulky, a slight hindrance when trying to extend arms completely straight. Bottom Line: Very good product. They are protecting the elbows as described and easy to wear all day.

Alpinestars-Reflex Elbow guards
Ordered a large for my husband, If you have big arms these are great. His arms are 18 inches around. Well worth the money. My son has a set also, the smaller size, fit is perfect.

Alpinestars
I originally had a pair by six-six-one. They itched a bit so I tried a pair of A-stars. Work great for me...no itch and allows good movement. I don't ride without them. Bought a pair for my son too.

Nice Fit but Net Sleeve is WAY too tight !
Lightweight and are holding up well so far! The only problem is the Net Sleeve ! I’m 5'9" 165lbs and my arms are not huge! The Net sleeve is way too tight to use, I just use the straps alone . Don't think it is as safe in a crash with just straps but the elbow pad itself is a perfect fit.

Great feel and protection
I wish I had bought the small / medium, because the large's straps are a bit to long to tighten the protectors enough. Still these are great protectors and I am looking forward to wearing them in the summer. They seem very light on and are ventilated on the inside.
