Nice pad, solid construction. It will do a good job of absorbing impact, but as someone noted, the straps can't be adjusted, so it is a little loose. Didn't give us much of a problem, alot of our guys have largish forearms anyway, and I don't mind some slack in the strap, but I can see how that might get on someone's nerves. However, it is one of the best prices out there, so its still worth it to me!
