Alpinestars SX-1 Knee Guards

Was looking for shin guard replacement. Didn’t want knee brace, and wanted CE rated protection. This brace was the last one I tried. Fits great, with knee brace socks you won’t have any issues. The tare set and forget adjustments, with the button clasp. adjust your straps and use the clips after that. They don’t take up too much room in the boot / shin area and feel great on the thigh. Lots of protection coupled with excellent fit and feel.

however, uppuer band is not comfortable

I bought these because I ride on very rocky hill climbs and cliffs and as far as protection goes there pretty good well made fit really good the only draw backs are that I couldnt really bend my knee very well to kick start my bike and the straps on the back dig into my legs and rub the skin raw other then that there great. A pair of knee sleves to go with will be well worth it

I bought this like 5 months ago and they are perfect

Two rides with these, about 60 miles. Comfort and quality is top notch, which I expect from Alpinestars. I was in search of a brace type knee guard, not a full knee brace, and under $200. Fit nice inside my tech 7 boots. These are great! Highly recommend.

This is a great knee guard. It is by no means a brace, but it's as close to one as you might get. I had the EVS version and regretted ten laps later, had black and blue bruses on the inside of my knees where my legs grip the tank from the hinge bolts on the pads. These however have excellent padding. All sitched to the plastic so it doesn't move around inside the guard. My only complaint so far are the straps are somewhat uncomfortable. So I recommend knee sleeves. Overall great knee gaurd.

Awesome knee guard and can’t even tell they are on. Only downfall I had was the top strap rubbing the back of my leg but I was wearing them too tight. Loosened them up and they still stay up and feel great

These are very durable and protective knee braces. They are good for any kind of riding. They have great protection for your knee. 100% would totally recommend these.
