|
|
| With most leg pad sizing charts you are asked to add in your skate size; however, I play roller hockey and play in shoes. How would I factor this into getting the right size leg pads? I am 6'3" with an ankle to knee of 18", a knee to thigh of 8", and a shoe size of 12 or 13. Anyone know what size pads I should get? I'm thinking 35/36. Any comments would be appreciated, thanks. |

does not matter, you need a 36 +2 pad or a 38
I am 6'3" with a 19 1/4 ankle to knee and wear a 38.
ankle to knee gets the measurement done _________________

| Sizing charts are only ok for getting an approximate size. Different people have different body compositions and two people who are both 6'3" can be sized for drastically different pads. The best thing you could do is go to your local goalie shop and get properly fitted by a professional. |
