well i just bought these weird arm guards (off a friend who doesnt play lax anymore) that a lot of people never heard of called deBeer armordillos. these things are extremely flexible, provide all the protection you can ever want, and feel like under armor! they have a small sleeve inside that is underarmor material and is attached to the gaurd. the padding lays about a centimeter off ur arm and stays in place so u never even feel it. i have never felt an arm guard as good as this. these things are old as hell and are still in almost perfect shape. they have been through five seasons of play and more are expected. if anyone can find these gloves for sale i STRONGLY suggest u buy them :thumbsup: . they are even better than those warrior 6.0 arm guards.
pictures will be posted by tommorow so check in and tell me what you think. but looks can be very desieving!

internal sleeve for warmth and comfert. much like under armor and it is attached to the pads so dont worry about loosing them.

huge pad but it lays off your are so u barely feel that it is there. it is made out of the same material as thigh pads are in football. for those of you who dont play, they are rock hard.

great length so the cover your arm yet still give you great wrist room.
anyway so as i said in the begining these are great, they may not seem it, but trust me when i say these are the most underated arm pads ever. great for any position. very highly recomended. the gloves are nothing special. but these arm pads are worth you while.

The Original CS's were the metal shafts that players (namely box players) would bend on the sides of goals to create an offset stick.

they look alot like a pair of brine arm pads i used to have. those had the most amazing flexibility ever. but alas, they grew too small for my brauny arms. haha jk. but seriously, i wish i had those same ones in a bigger size.

no offense but those arm pads dont really look that great to me. it seems like a pair of warrior mpg 5.0s would work just as good. i dont see how these things can be much better than most modern arm pads

he said, looks can be deceiving, and they are. these arm pads are very nice and the under armor sleeve gives a great fit. not sure about the shoulder pads tho
