These are my 1st pair of elbow pads and i have to say they are tough ive played 15- 16 games and not a prob yet they look like they did the day i bought them. also they are very well shaped they fit your arm in a very natural way, the thumb hole is great too it keeps the pad tight on your arm so it doesnt rotate.
Conclusion:
Even though i have only had them a short time from what i have seen i think i will have these a long time quality and durability get these you wont regret it
