I bought these for my son who plays basketball. He was so happy that the pads are where they are because of how the game is played and can be "rough" sometimes! He wears a Adult Med. is about 6' 145lbs. and they fit well. They hold up well in washing machine, however I have them drip dry-which they do quickly! Great buy!Best Deals for McDavid Hexpad Thudd Short With Hexpad Thigh pads

I decided to buy this for snowboarding. I fall pretty often, and you never know how the mountain is going to be, it can be soft powder snow, or just rock hard icy. It protected the majority of my tailbone except for the highest part (closest to lower back). I thought they could've extended the padding just a little bit higher.If you wanna buy this to protect your tailbone, I don't know if this would be best. It'll protect majority of it, but not the higher part.

Written by my husband: I bought this on a whim. I just started playing basketball again after a 5-year hiatus and joined a 3-on-3 league. I've worn the shorts for the league and some weekend pick-up basketball so over the last 2 months, about 12-15 times total. Seams and stitching look good. Elastic waist band is still elastic-y. Pads still feel as new. Not much wear at all.My main reason for purchasing the shorts is because of the hip and tailbone protection. I like to think that I know how to fall on the court but my hips have taken a beating before (ground always wins, right?).
In terms of usage: the pads have been great out on the courts. I've fallen a few times (I'm 6'1" 215lbs and play forward/center on my team for the most part) and the shorts have protected my hips well. They've given me confidence to play aggressively knowing my hips are protected in case I fall.
I also took the shorts out sledding with my young boys. I'll admit that they are not comfortable when sitting. The tailbone pad is awkward but the added confidence makes the padded shorts a necessity in any sport/activity I may fall in. I am not as young as I used to be and I've begun to notice that my recovery times from injuries take longer. I now consider preventing injuries as a significant part of preparation for activities and the McDavid Hexpad Thudd Shorts go a long way towards that end.
If I could recommend any changes to the product, I would like to have elastic at the base of the shorts so that they stay in place better on the legs.
