Bike Trouser Protector - Completely Protects Cyclist's Trousers from Grease and Chain Unlike Existing Straps and Clips - Comfortable, Snug Fit, Easy On/Off (1 Unit)

This product works well keeping chain muck off your right trouser leg. I commute 100 miles a week, and this saves a considerable amount of laundry bother, in addition it has prevented the secondary transfer of oil from trouser leg to furnishings etc. It is easy to get on and off and after several months shows no signs of wear. Since chains are on the right, this is designed to fit the right leg. One's trouser leg can get clammy underneath, but it doesnt claim to be breathable, perhaps this is more noticeable if it is worn next to the skin to keep your leg clean. After months of use the oil shows no sign of working its way through the material. It is high vis yellow, and hopefully catches drivers attention. It does not come clean in my washing machine, wiping it down with WD40 and a rag seems the best approach to cleaning where it has rubbed the chain.

Easy to use

Ok, so I've had some funny looks as I've walked into work wearing this but it is great. I no longer have had my trousers getting eaten in my chain, no longer worried I'm damaging my chain/gears/ and no more black grease marks on my trousers either. The reflective strips show up well so hopefully increases my visibility and safety too. Multiple wins.The grease really shows on this so I know exactly how much grease I've protecting my trousers from. I've washed this leg shield by hand once and am pleased that the grease came off easily and the leg shield didn't fall apart at all.Delivery took a little longer than planned and the seller did contact me to apologise and explained. Seemed fair enough and I wasn't in a rush.There isn't anything else so far on the market like this and I think it's better than tucking your trousers into your socks or using clips.The price is a little steeper than I'd expect and once a couple of vendors/suppliers catch onto this product, competition may force the price down a tad.You only need one as the chain is on one side of the bike and only the leg on that side needs the shield.Product DescriptionThe Leg Shield is the perfect solution for protecting your right trouser leg from hard-to-clean grease stains and preventing trousers from getting jammed in the bike gears. With the existing trouser straps & clips, grease gets on your trousers and they can slip down or come apart.With the Leg Shield you don't need to worry about ruining your trousers and can have a safe and enjoyable ride. It's great for bike commuters and recumbent riders.We also sell high-quality reflective ankle bands on Amazon.

these leg guards are great,not only stops my trousers flapping about but stops my legs getting scratched if they catch the pedals which is a problem for as i have thin sensitive skin.note the pack price is for asingle one so order 2 if thats what you want.bit expensive but worth itrichard

This trouser protector works extremely well. I made a mistake thinking they came as a pair but it is a single item, so if you are like me and like things to be even, you will have to pay double! Before buying the black protector I had bought a pair of fluorescent yellow ones for my bike and they are excellent and highly visible. I was so impressed with the comfort and the ease of putting them on that I decided to buy a pair of black ones to use as gaiters for my golf and walking, as normal gaiters are fiddly to put on. As yet, I have not used them for golf or walking as it is Summer and the ground is not sodden. However, that said, when Winter comes I will have a better idea as to how they fare for that use.I have found when cycling, that they can be extremely warm in the hot weather but you don't notice it until you take them off. To sum up, because of my age I do not cycle huge distances but I am extremely happy with the yellow ones as they are highly visible, but I may update this review about the black ones when I use them as gaiters in the Winter when the ground is very wet, but added warmth will be welcome!

The fluorescent yellow version is highly visible, keeps heavy waterproof trousers wrapped up neatly away from chain. Easy to adjust tightness, comfortable, warm and gives your legs a little extra protection (I often scrape the back of my forelegs with the pedals by accident). My only issue is I had to buy 2 (you only get 1 clip) because I didn’t like how my trousers were clipping my bike on the non-chain side. This meant they were quite an expensive buy but depending on trousers you’re tying you may only need one clip. Overall I would reccomend, quality product.

This works, and deserves its good reviews.BUT it is not very breathable, and results in a very weird sweaty lower leg feeling, even when it's not that warm outside.I would say therefore that it is uncomfortable.I would only recommend to buy this if you absolutely MUST avoid any dirt on your trousers, and do not mind being sweaty in one part of your leg.For most people I would say just wear a regular cycling clip and wear inexpensive trousers when you ride.

I bike to work, and suit trousers and bike chains are natural enemies. This leg shield gives my trousers the armor they need to get through the daily bike ride each day without a scratch. Its easy to put on, and perhaps too comfortable (I've worn it around the office on accident a number of times, forgetting it was there). Exactly what I needed, and what I completly reccomend to other suited bike riders.

Da ich nicht nur in sportlicher Manier in einschlägigen Fahrradhosen unterwegs bin, sondern mitunter auch als gutgekleideter Gentleman auf zwei Rädern pendeln möchte, habe ich nach einer Lösung gesucht, die mir maximalen Schutz für die teuren oder auch weniger teuren Hosenbeine verspricht. In die engere Auswahl sind dabei der DEUTER PANTS PROTECTOR neo (nur in Schwarz) sowie der LEG SHIELD, entweder in Neongelb oder in Schwarz, gekommen - beides Qualitätsprodukte mit entsprechendem Preis. Letztendlich habe ich mich dann für den LEG SHIELD entschieden. Zum einen, weil hier gleich zwei sehr unterschiedliche Farben zur Auswahl standen. Tatsächlich ausschlagebend für mich war jedoch die ebenso elegante wie ergonomische Formgebung des Leg Shield. Er passt sich dem Unterschenkel perfekt an und drei Klettverschlüsse sorgen zudem für sehr guten Halt. Obzwar ich auch dem Deuter-Produkt nicht eine gewisse Qualität absprechen möchte, war mir schon nach dem Vergleich der beiden Produktfotos im Internet eindeutig klar, dass ich hier dem Leg Shield den Vorzug geben werde. Das Deuter-Produkt wirkt nämlich bereits nach der ersten eidetischen Anmutung recht klobig und hat auch nur einen einzigen großen Klett, der - allein logisch gedacht - keineswegs einen derart guten Sitz garantiert wie drei verteilte, anatomisch wohlpositionierte Klettverschlüsse. Farbmäßig habe ich mich übrigens für Neongelb entschieden, obgleich Schwarz sicher stilvoller gewesen wäre. Vor allem, wenn man in städtischen Ballungsräumen unterwegs sein möchte, ist die erhöhte Sichtbarkeit durch eine Signalfarbe das wesentlichere (Sicherheits-) Kriterium!Das Leg Shield-Produkt selbst wurde, obwohl ich es direkt vom Hersteller aus den USA bezogen habe, und zwar zu einem deutlich reduzierten Preis, übrigens in "Windeseile" angeliefert - nämlich innerhalb von vierzehn Tagen, sprich also keineswegs unter Ausnützung der maximalen Lieferfrist von vier Wochen! Der Mail-Kontakt mit dem US-Verkäufer war zudem von Anfang an sehr intensiv und kundenorientiert (Freilich nur dann, wenn man des Englischen mächtig genug ist, was heutzutage jedoch keine größeren Probleme bereiten dürfte).Ich habe das Produkt nach dem Erhalt sogleich anprobiert und es entspricht fürs Erste voll und ganz meinen Erwartungen. Die Hosenbeine sind jedenfalls über den gesamten Unterschenkel bestens vor Verschmutzungen geschützt und das weiche Material schmiegt sich regelrecht ans Bein an. Wie es sich allerdings bei nassen Wetterbedingungen verhält, habe ich noch nicht ausprobiert, denke allerdings, dass es auch hier keine Probleme geben dürfte. EINZIGER KRITIKPUNKT: Den Leg Shield kann man leider nicht in der Hosentasche verstauen, und man sollte ihn aus Gründen der Haltbarkeit auch nicht einfach zusammenknüllen. Ein echter Fahrrad-Commuter hat jedoch ohnehin immer seinen Rucksack, die fahrradgerechte Aktentasche oder wenigstens den Hinterradkorb dabei, dann gibt es überhaupt kein Problem! Ladies sind den Herren der Schöpfung hier ohnedies ständig einen Schritt voraus, sofern sie nämlich Damentaschen (selbstverständlich ebenso fahrradtauglich) mit sich führen. :-)

I bought two of these leg shields and they work beautifully to protect one's pants from bicycle chain grease, and as a type of gaiter to prevent snow from entering the top of a low boot. I use them for snowshoeing.

Nachdem ich die üblichen Hosenklammern und -klemmen immer wieder verloren und verlegt habe oder sie schnell zerbrochen sind habe ich mir dieses Leg Schield gekauft. Ich bin damit vollkommen zufrieden, außer dem Schutz vor der Kette bietet es auch Schutz vor Spritzwasser von unten und leichterem Regen, ist aber im Gegensatz zu Gamaschen schneller und einfach anzuziehen, da man es nicht über den Schuh ziehen muss. Leider gibt es sie nicht im Doppelpack für beide Beine, aber ich bestelle mit nun auch eines für das linke Beim als Regenschutz.

HiiI have already returned this product so why not pick up the product from m my home and why are you not return my account this is very very poor quality product I don't want need this product

Update: I was contacted by the company (Mark), and he sent me a new protector. I really like the product and this kind of outstanding customer service should be rewarded... 5 stars!!! Thanks so much for an excellent product and excellent customer service!My previous four star review: I really like this thing. Especially in colder weather (less than 15 C or so), I prefer to bike in pants (typically jeans). If you can related, you've undoubtedly tried the 'sock tuck' or the 'small bungee wrap' or similar. All of these methods are superior to having your pant cuff munched by the chain, but not by much. This thing is great! It takes slightly more work to get on, but provides an amazing amount of protection, not only from the chain, but from splash and other crap as well. It's also somewhat funny as clearly many people think it's a cast of some sort. I've accidentally left it on a few times and am approached by folks asking what happened to my leg. One negative is the durability. After only a couple of weeks, the reflective stripes have begun to peel off and the top of the velco straps is also showing wear. But overall, I like this thing.Pros: Protects pants, very bright - adds visibility. Comfortable.Cons: Durability - as mentioned above, reflective stripes are coming off, velcro is showing signs of wear. Takes a little extra effort to put on.Summary: if you bike in pants (especially nice ones), you should buy this. And if you really do bike in nice pants, you might want to buy two - one for each leg.
