I’m looking around for some protective stuff for my 5 year old son. Decent gloves and knee pads, maybe elbows too, but maybe getting a bit much. It’s for every day off road riding, not jumpiness, so wearability is the thing,
I’m not too optimistic on finding decent knee pads for a slim 5 yr old to be honest, but hoped people might have some real world experience to share. When he falls it’s always hi knees that take the bash, and I’d rather he was either less worried about falling off, and/or back up and riding quicker after a spill (although he is pretty good at that).
Similarly with gloves – he’s essentially got size 4 hands, not that I can find size charts etc to match anything up against. Anyone got experience of buying “small” youth gloves and how small they might actually be?
