Just curious.
How do you prevent the commonly used elastic cord from cutting into your arm when using an arm guard.
If I leave it too loose, the arm guard just slides down my wrist.
When I tighten it up so that it stays in place, it leaves grooves in my arm that last for hours.
What's a better system?

Jus -
Loose weight?
I've seen arm guards with and elastic panel the ran the length of the arm guard and slipped over your forearm. Then there's the type with rivets and a leather thong that laces up. When it's not too hot, a sweatshirt or long sleeve t-shirt helps.
Viper out.

Larger cord or flat elastic straps. Then there is the old Velcro,buckles, or lace up. You can rig one any way that suits you. >>>>-----> Ken

I get the grooves too. The hair on my forearm kinda hides them so they don’t really bother me. Better than having a big purple lump that is very visible, which is what happens occasionally when I don’t use the arm guard.

Most of the time I use a kids soccer shin guard. They have a soft material glued inside that keeps the guard from moving. One velcro strap. two for $5 Even my grandkids think that I'm nuts...
