Comments: Excellent pair of shin guards. I came from Easton Stealth 55S so I can't really compare them to anything since the Eastons were entry level guards and obviously subpar compared to the CCM U+12. That being said, they are rather light and very protective. Although they felt large, they don't inhibit my stride. I've taken a few slappers off of A-leaguers and felt nothing. The strap system is really nice and snug, although I still have to tape them as I have very skinny shins. I would definitely buy these again.

From: Darren, SC

Comments: Good value for the pad.  Relatively slim profile and the combination of the well defined knee donut and Y-strapping system provide a secure fit.  Light enough weight and the removable liner make allows for quicker drying.  If this is your price point for shin guards I'd recommend it. 
From: Michael, CT

Comments: These are the best shin guards I've owned in 5 years of playing roller hockey. I've had them for 6 months and they still look and feel brand new.
PROS:
-great protection: take pucks and slashing and feel nothing
-great fit: fits snugly to leg, and doesn't get hot!
-calf wrap offers great protection
-cross-strap system is THE BEST STRAP SYSTEM I'VE EVER FELT! My shin guards never move or slide no matter how hard I skate or how hard I get slashed!
-very flexible and hardly restrict movement
-removable liner makes airing out easy and effective


NO CONS:

Fantastic shin guards (thank you CCM and IW!) and I would recommend to any roller hockey player!
