Bought some GP PLus gloves a few weeks ago, maybe even a month. Very nice.

Just added the Icon Field Armor Legs to my collection. Scored them for $40 from another forum.

Wearing them right now, and they're comfortable. Good shin coverage- down to the top of my 8" or 10" leather work boots- and I have long legs. Might not be good for shorter people. The knee protector doesn't cover much above the knee, but the top/front of your thigh isn't very likely to hit the ground. Feel pretty solid, good padding, slim enough to fit under jeans, but I had to put the armor on first. I couldn't just pull my pants legs up and then slide them down over the armor. Overall, they feel more secure than the knee armor that fits into my Mod Jeans. Won't move around and turn useless. They feel good on the bike, and aren't bad for walking around- just a little creaky.
