2021 Sand Colorway Out of the Box Impressions 10/21/2020 (will update when the monsoons come). Added some pics below to show key features. First let me preface by saying I have been reluctant to spend on a feature specific rain jacket for riding. My current jacket was a high end, lightweight, well vented camping brand that I bought in a size too big to go OVER my backpack. I hate running a rain jacket next to my skin b/c of no liner. I moved to a fanny pack last summer & it made my jacket far more comfortable. But in the winter, I got stock with a Camelbak again to carry knee pads, extra layer...

Leatt 3DF Hybrid Knee Guards
The Good

Comfortable, flexible, stays in place

The Bad

Nwe well ventilated/hot

Overall Review
Really comfortable knee pad. My main complain about other models I had is that they always slip down. I found this one for sale and gave it a try because of the adjustability and shin guard length... never regreted. I feel very safe wearing it and sometimes I forget they are on. The only complain is the temperature... It´s not that well ventilated. Anyway, I would buy it again.
