“This is top-notch kit. I am 6'5" and a biscuit shy of 300 lbs. and the 42-44 fit nicely without binding or turning me into a sausage. The pad is thin (the way I like it) and stretches as it should - pads are for friction reduction, not to soften your big but's ride! The materials used are similar to shorts I have costing twice the price. I do so much wish the braces were wider though. I will look forward to ordering more of these when wider bracers are standard.”
