Nice tight fit. Got a few bounces off the elbow :)
Stay protected without adding unnecessary bulk with the Infamous PRO DNA Minimalist Compression Elbow Pads Gen 2. Designed for paintball players who want lightweight protection, compression, and unrestricted movement, these low profile arm pads provide targeted elbow coverage while maintaining a close, athletic fit.
The Minimalist Gen 2 design combines flexible elbow protection with moisture wicking compression fabric and stretch mesh panels, giving you protection where you need it while keeping your arms free to move naturally. The result is a streamlined alternative to traditional bulky paintball elbow pads.
The PRO DNA Minimalist Gen 2 pads focus protection around the elbow while eliminating unnecessary material and bulk. Their lightweight slip on design makes them ideal for tournament paintball, speedball, practice, or any player who prefers a more natural feel when moving, shooting, crawling, and diving.
Targeted compression zones help lock the pads against your arms, while an integrated silicone grip strip provides additional hold without relying on bulky adjustment straps. This close fitting design helps reduce unwanted movement while you're playing aggressively.
Strategically placed stretch mesh allows the pads to flex naturally with your arms for a bind free range of motion. Whether you're snapping out of a bunker, switching hands, or making a move down the field, the lightweight construction is designed to move with you instead of fighting against you.
Infamous DNA moisture wicking technology helps pull sweat away from your skin and encourages faster evaporation. This helps keep the pads lighter and more comfortable during long practices, tournaments, and hot days at the paintball field.
The elbow area features abrasion resistant material for increased durability in one of the highest wear areas of a paintball arm pad. This added reinforcement helps the Minimalist Gen 2 pads stand up to regular crawling, sliding, and contact with field surfaces.
Integrated thumb loops help keep the arm pads positioned correctly during play. The low profile design is thin enough to work comfortably with paintball gloves, giving you additional security without creating excessive material around your hands and wrists.
These elbow pads are designed with a tight compression fit to help lock them into place. If you do not like tight fitting compression gear or you are between sizes, we recommend going one size up for a more relaxed fit.
If you want lightweight paintball elbow pads that provide protection without restricting your movement, the Infamous PRO DNA Minimalist Compression Elbow Pads Gen 2 deliver a streamlined combination of padding, compression, breathability, and durability built for aggressive play.

The size chart for infamous arm guards is horrible; however, once you get the right size they are great. At 250lbs and 5'9" the 2xl were perfect for me. They are snug like any compression fitting clothing and by far the most comfortable I have worn of any arm protection and without being overly padded

Best arm pads without a doubt. They fit so well, they don’t have you feeling all constrained and restricted.

Store owner replied: Hello Charles and thank you for leaving a review about the Infamous Pro DNA Elbow Pads! We agree completely, these are some of the best elbow pads that you can get! These minimalist pads still provide a ton of protection, they stay in place well, and they breathe well on those hot days!
Run small! I usually run a large with other arm pads but I have to get XL now.
