At Sportsmart you will find two protections from McDavid that may look relatively similar in pictures but differ in price and function. Therefore, we have first clarified the differences between these two protections: Difference #1 - The side panels of the 429X are made of materials that provide absolute stability, they are even more stable than the 422. Difference No. 2 - With 422 you have a better stability (this is due to the difference in the side panels) This means that 422 is even better for sports activities that require very good stability, such as skiing or ball sports; Difference No. 3 - 429X has a crossed carborundum band over the outer part of the protection. This provides extra stability for those who have an injury in the ACL;
