I have both and tbh the design doesn't matter at all to me because thye are under your socks anyways. The g form Shin guards are actually very protective
They're really nice shin guards, they're just a bit tough to recommend since it's tough to make a one size fits all style of sleeves. Check out the Mercurial Lite SuperLock shin guards you don't even need the sleeves and they're super comfortable ⚽️🏃♂️
He must not have tried very hard to get them on. I'm 36 and 6ft 2 and I got a G-Form size medium and they are perfect for me. I got 2 pairs and found the large a bit loose. The G-Form website tells you to go more on calf size than height. I find them super comfortable to wear and the coverage of shin area is great as its a bit wider than most hard shell ones as with it being so soft it forms to the leg shape perfectly. This review sounds more like a paid nike ad than an honest review, how can you start to review something that doesn't fit you then blame that product. Plus the G-Form get easier to put on the more you use them.
Thank you Scott I'm definitely going to keep trying to use them and see if they work out. What I wanted to show people here is that the G-form is an awesome product, it just has way too many limitations to recommend, compared to Nike. I had my nephew (16) and wife (23) try them as well to see if it was just me but they both also had a tough time putting them on where they even ripped them a little bit of the stitching. Being attached to the sleeve is it's strength and weakness. I hope you can give the SuperLocks a chance and lmk what you think I'm not paid for any of this I'm really trying to be as honest as I possibly can. I'm excited to see G-form evolve and hope they keep making products so more people can enjoy them.
@@reviewsfc7772 G-Form actually have slip in one's on Amazon out now as I was looking a couple days ago as I'm a keeper and got the Storelli Bodyshield Turf Burn leggings and as they are baselayer tight fit they actually have a slip in shin pad pocket so wanted a pair of slip in guards to wear with them instead of trying to pull them over my G-Form pads as well. I went for the Nike Mercurial Lite slips in so will see how I get on with them although I'm sure I'll be fine as seen some good reviews for them as slip ins. .
Absolutely, lmk how they work out. I love it! I saw them the other day and thought about comparing both styles of G-form. Thank you I'll give them a try and see how it goes 😁👍
You should probably note the specs of products you review. The G-Forms are NOCSAE approved, same as the Nikes. i.e. They've been professionally tested for their impact protection. The G-Forms use a patented foam which instantly hardens on impact. They protect at least as well as the Nikes here. Maybe moreso, because the Nikes use a dubious spider-webbed rubber absorption gimmick, making it a product that's marked up to a price far beyond their overhead cost. Only Nike or Adidas has the gall to pretend that cheap, recycled materials somehow justify 70-80 bucks. Branding and marketing, baby.🙄

Nike! G force looks like its for kids and not protective at all
Totally agree they are for younger players
Nike
