  You guys are kidding yourselves. $70 for a pair of shin pads. I'll take my $10 ones from Rebel any day. Most people who are buying shin pads are adults and children who are far from "Professional Footballers in the English Premier League".

  $10 adidas/nike shin pads from Rebel do the exact same thing.

  $70 for a good pair of carbon fibre shinguards is not bad. I own several pairs of different shinguards and good shinguards do feel different, like lighter weight, fit, anti slip etc.

  I do doubt about whether good players use this brand, since most of them will either use sponsored brands or fully customise their ones to fit the shape.

  Overall seems fair to me, although the cushion is not the best.

    How much would you expect to pay for the best cushion?

      I might be among those niche ones, I paid $150 USD for this:

      https://www.c6agility.com/collections/frontpage/products/shi…

      "PORON® XRD™ w/ Microban - Foam Backing Absorbs up to 90% of Force and Resists Odors - Gen 4 features decreased sweat retention in the foam
      DuraWick™ Foam Covering for Durability and Sweat Wicking - Improved design for Gen 4 greatly improves durability and sweat management"

      But even the cheap $40 AUD Carbon fiber Shinguards I bought in China(pretty much a copy of C6) use similar PORON material, so I feel this has room to improve.
