Twins Synthetic Leather Belly Pads - any good?

[Dave78]

Hi All

I want to get a coaches belly pad, but they are REALLY expensive. The Sandee leather ones are the best I've found pound for pound so far, but...

Body Active do a really reasonable Twins one, but its not leather it's synthetic!

Anyone have any experience of this and is it any good? Generally Twins stuff kicks ass, i can't see why they'd put their name to something shitty, but I've not seen one in the flesh so was after someone who had.

Cheers

Twins one is good, ive had one for about 5-6 years and still use it nearly every day. we have a sandee, fairtex, boon,king and mtg pro ones in the gym also and all are decent quality. If you want somethig a bit cheaper but still decent try the blitz firepower ones, there not as heavy duty but do the job.

EDIT: James, is your Twins one synthetic or leather???
