Default Windy vs. Twins??

I'm ordering thai pads and shinguards tomorrow - so I need the advice from the folks who's been there and done that.

For the shin guards I'm already leaning toward Windy.
For the pads its still a "toss up."

Which should I go with, given they're the same cost?
Lastly, I reckon vecro is safer than the buckle, yes?

Can't wait to oil them suckas up with my sweat!
Your two penny's worth will go a long way...thanks in advance.

I just seem to have an aversion for their stuff, don't know why. Maybe their stuff just seems too "high brow."

Gonna go with Windy.

Windy's Shin pads are same quality as the Fairtex ones.
