Joe, yes, that is correct, great for basketball or other light to incidental contact sports, you would need something more for football..,

Mid-thigh on my leg is 17 inches (circumference) and 5 fits fine so 5 should be good for you as well. This stuff STRETCHES a great deal and is not real tight like a compression stocking. Good luck with it.

It would provide some additional cushioning, but is only about a 1/4" thick, so it wouldn't provide a great deal of protection. I use a piece on a leg brace to keep the brace from digging into my leg, and it does a great job for that.

I wouldn't call it "padding" necessarily but it definitely protects from blisters. I use mine for Body Pump with weights up to about 55 lbs. and haven't had any issues.

I use it and I'm not a large person at all and it works fine. I also use it on my thighs 1 at a time putting one pad on each side, quad, hamstring, inner and outer, then I wrap an ace bandage around it so it fits snugly and I get good traction, without which, it'll shock big time. I believe that if I had a smaller one for women only it may not be big enuf to go around my thighs. Just saying... For me

It's relatively thick felt, but there is no extra padding besides that. It seems to protect pretty well, though.

Yes, it should fit for the purpose of having the pad kept close to the lower back, not for mobile activities.

No, not really, since you got a knee protector that goes higher then the knee cap, and just walking around with them will make it uncomfortable. those knee shin pads protector are made for cycling and motorbike riding since you have your legs bent and the knee shin pads protector will fit perfectly over your knee cap whille protecting the higher part of your knee cap. i use those knee shin protector while riding my electric mountain bike going up to 60 km/h in the trails and since i've had them, they protected my knees and shins quite well after those wipe outs. hope those info helped you.

I would sum up the answer by saying that this is the best armor to protect your shin and your knee that I found on the market at this time. The rubbing spots that I found when I first started using these pads has gone away. It appears that this armor has adjusted to my legs shape so that I do not get any more areas that rub or irritate my skin. I do find it helps to wear high socks so there's less of a chance of any rubbing at the lower strap area.

No, not padded. Need to wear the underware if wanting cycle padding. BUT, GREAT 3/4 pants. We own 3 pair and love them...not just biking but all around comfy shorts. Definitely worth the money.

Yes the seat is very confortable on the tailbone, it dissipates de impacts very well. Its one of my favorites seats , the dual density serfas is awesome too. The seat has a good width to give very nice support!! I can take some shots and take somes measures to you if you want!

As best I can measure, it looks to be 5 or 6 inches of padding. I can tell you for sure, mine is quite comfortable.

It's a soft padding. It'll do fine fine for sparing practice but it isn't body armor or a substitute for elbow or shin guard type rigid plastics.

We use it as just a guard. It's pretty thin, but we have a big memory foam mattress, so there is no need for a pad. I personally would use it as a pad.

There is padding, I particularly like it for its light weight. I sometimes go all day with it on, and only after hours do I find it slightly uncomfortable.

Yes, that semi circle in the middle is separated from the sides of this particular pad. So it can be used flat or wrapped around a joint. It comes with an elastic band with Velcro ends to hold in place. It would only cover one shoulder, the lower back or upper back it's about 12" x 12". I bought the universal pad for use on my hip after surgery. I couldn't find the hip pad at the time but I am glad I got this one because it can be used anywhere. I would recommend this product to anyone for swelling and pain control.
