I bought a pair of Gerry Davis shinguards a couple weeks ago, based on recommendations from many. I have tried them on and they appear very comfortable and lightweight, but appear to be very good protection. There are only 2 straps, instead of the 4 I have had on my previous shinguards. I can't wait to start the season with them. I still have a pair of Honigs K20 and a pair of Rawlings shinguards. I have never been hurt by a ball off the shinguard so if I had a choice between spending extra money on shinguards or a chest protector I would spend on the chest protector.
