Thai Pads... which ones to buy???

This is inspired by the thread about "Breaking in a new leg kick pad". I want to order some off eBay, therefore I cannot feel them before I buy them. Tips anyone?

W brand? First Ive heard of them. Are they new? Do they have an online store I could browse?

My personal preference would be to go for Buckles over velcro, as after 6months to a year the Velcro loses its effectiveness. Pain in the hole if they are all you have to work with at the time.

They aren't new, they are a brand from thai land so you don't see them to often. http://www.thaiboxinggear.com/main.p...Cat&cat_id=123 has them. The pads are expensive but very high quality, the belly pad is really good to.
