ABSTRACT:
A limb guard serves to protect a part of a limb from an external impact force and includes an elongate pad member, an elongate sheet layer mounted on the pad member to form an accommodation space between the elongate sheet layer and the elongate pad member, and a one-piece resilient impact absorbing member. The shock absorbing member is inserted in the accommodation space, and has a longitudinally extending central section of a first thickness adapted to resist and consequently absorb the external impact force applied thereon, and two lateral wing sections which are integrally formed with and which extend laterally from two longitudinal edges of the central section. Each of the lateral wing sections has a second thickness smaller than the first thickness to form a flexing juncture between the central section and each of the lateral wing sections so that each of the lateral wing sections can flex toward the part of the limb relative to the central section along a corresponding one of the flexing junctures to conform with and fit the contour of the part of the limb.
