The Fox Launch Pro D3O Elbow Guards are designed for mountain and trail bikers who prioritize elite-level impact protection without sacrificing mobility. By integrating D3O impact-reducing technology into a breathable, anatomical design, these guards offer high-performance defense during technical riding; however, users may find the fit slightly bulkier than minimalist soft-shell pads due to the added hardshell protection.

It is highly recommended to hand wash these guards to protect the integrity of the D3O material and the neoprene fabric.
Yes, the inserts can be removed to facilitate deeper cleaning of the sleeve fabric.
Yes, they are designed with a low-profile construction that allows them to be worn comfortably underneath most mountain bike jerseys.
The guard should feel snug and secure without causing discomfort or restricting circulation. Refer to the specific sizing guide for measurements of your forearm and bicep.
Yes, the D3O material is water-resistant and will continue to perform as intended even if exposed to sweat or rain.
Ensure you are using the correct size. If the size is correct, check that the silicone grippers are clean of sweat and oils; wiping them with a damp cloth can restore tackiness.
Check the attachment points for any dirt or debris that might prevent the cap from snapping in completely. Press firmly around the edges of the cap to ensure all tabs are engaged.
To achieve the best protection, slide the guards on before your jersey. Ensure the logos are facing up and the joint is centered on your elbow. Because they are unisex, it is essential to consult the size chart before purchase, as the fit should be snug but not restrictive to blood flow.
To maintain the gear, remove the hardshell cap before washing. Hand wash the soft sleeves in cool water with a mild, non-abrasive detergent and allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight, which can degrade the neoprene. Regularly inspect the D3O insert for any signs of cracking or deformation and ensure the hardshell cap is securely snapped into its mounting points before each ride.
