Pros & Cons
Pros
I wear it under my jumpsuit while skydiving and it really helps to soften the blows when i hit the earth a little harder than expected! Starting to see other jumpers wearing these at the drop zone now. Protective padding is sufficient and not bulky.
Cons
These are advertised as being for youth and adult, but they are sized for little kids. The sizing chart image in the product description is not correct. The pad failed directly along the seam line, separating the pad from the cloth.

Competitiveness
I would also say these probably aren't the greatest for mountain biking or snow sports, where the impact & speed is much greater.

I always scoffed at the fact of wearing any pads but now at 31 these have came in pretty clutch

But when i do it tends to be right on the pointy part of my hip or tailbone from washing out on a trick to either my butt or side or slipping out on concrete quarters

The protection on these is definitely minimal but the padding is in the exact right spots for when you slip out on stuff
