Hi all,
Has anyone had any experience with fox enduro knee guards?
My thigh is 17.5" putting me directly between the Medium and the Large.
I know in gloves and shorts fox clothing comes up small but does the same go for knee pads?
Thanks
I ordered a load of different pads pre-xmas and straddled the med/large size guides. I tried the Fox Enduro in Medium and found it tight on the thigh. Didn't try a Large Fox but for reference a Dakine Slayer in Large was a little loose. A POC Air sleeve in Med fitted OK but wasn't as comfy... Decided I preferred a velcro adjustment rather than a sleeve type. In the end it was a toss up between POC VPD Air (Medium fit well) and IXS Flows (tried Med + Large) - settled on the IXS Flows in Medium.

Ah, that's a great reply as the IXS flow and the POC VPD were the two others i had my eye on. Out of curiosity, what's your tight measurement? Thanks
I'm about 42cm/16.5". Seem to remember me being about midway on the velcro adjust for the POC VPD Med for a good fit. The IXS Flow in Large fit OK, with the velcro adjust at near full closure, with the Mediums velcro adjust at 1/4 to 1/2 closure. Hopefully that makes sense!
It's a PITA trying all the different ones, but I bought them all via Paypal to get the Free returns they off (12 times a year allowance), and was better wearing them around the house for longer than feeling rushed in a shop. Good luck!
