I am so glad I bought these. I started getting back into roller skating after like 10 years, and had my first fall yesterday and I fell hard lol. I have a tendency to put my hands down when I fall doing any balance sport, which you are NOT supposed to do because you can break your wrist (which I've done). I instinctively put my hands down yet again but the wrist guard completely broke my fall and prevented any damage to my wrist! The plastic piece on the palm absorbed a lot of the impact, and because I had it wrapped tight, my wrist didn't bend, and my body weight rolled onto my elbow pads. I sat there for a minute pretty stunned because I was not in any pain. 10/10 worth buying just because of protecting my wrists from that fall.I read mixed reviews about the sizing, so here's how it went for me! I think it's pretty decently true to size. I ordered a medium. I am 5,5 and 1/2, 135lbs, my upper body is a little smaller than my lower (for example, I am a size small up top and medium on the bottom in clothes). The knee pads fit great, however I do not strap them as tight as they'll go because it would squeeze me a little too much. The wrist pads are great too just with the opposite on the straps, I feel like I could stand to strap them a teeeeensy bit tighter if it would let me which tracks with the fact that I have a smaller upper body. But I wouldn't spend the money to get a small set just for smaller wrist bands. Elbow pads fit just right!Overall, cannot complain about a thing -- they are so cute and vibrant, they work fantastic and I feel so safe when skating!

Keeps you safe! Can't even feel it if you fall. Fits me well, although the bands on the elbow pads feel a little awkward. Can take a beating.

I bought the color Sunset on sale for $20 and I think it’s great for that price, although I’m not familiar enough with safety gear to tell you if the RRP of $50 is still good value. I weigh under 120 pounds and I’m about 5’6, and the medium size fits me well. I think I could have sized down to small for the wrist guards (they are the only item that changes size, the knee and elbow guards are “universal” size), but there’s enough velcro for me to get it on snug (make sure it's tight enough to keep your wrists straight!), although I wish there were a little bit more - if you weigh less than 120 pounds and are taller than 5’5, I would go for the small. Some reviewers have posted pics showing that the knee pads were super small and tight on them, so definitely check the user photos to determine if these are right for your body type. Some also say the sizing is inconsistent.I’m a beginner roller skater and have fallen a few times (indoors only), and I’m happy with the performance so far. My wrists feel protected, the straps are comfortable enough to wear for a few hours and don’t make me sweat much because there’s no extra fabric on the elbows or backs of knees, and the colors are cute and vibrant. I’m not planning to do anything super dangerous, but I’ll try to update this review if they fail or fall apart the first time I fall on concrete. Having said that, I was looking for cheap gear and I don’t expect these to last forever. The stitching and material on the wrist guards looks a bit flimsy, but it's lightweight mesh for breathability. If I were a park skater looking for very high durability, I would invest in something more expensive.
