I actually used mine for the first time tonight!! It’s hard to rate something without seeing it in action! For umpires that are used to having their hands on their knees like I am, you know what it feels like taking a thrown pitch or foul ball off the hands!! It’s not pleasant! It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, you don’t really forget about it for a couple of weeks!! So I love the way these feel and look while working the plate! But it’ll probably be a little further in the season before I know if they really work!! So please, stay tuned!!

Alright, as far as comfort goes, this is alright. It does have a Velcro stretch strap that goes around the arm to help hold it in place. I had full use of my hand, which wasn't much, considering I had hand surgery last month and wanted some extra protection. It will take a few minutes to get use to, but after that, you really do not feel it on your hand and arm. I did not get hit in the hand as of this review, so I cannot say much about the protection the padding gives.
