No, you don't have to slip your leg through it. It doesn't connect permanently all the way around. See if this helps...


The strap Y-ing off towards the top here


Actually goes back around behind your leg back to the front and the other strap goes around the front to meet it and they velcro to each other across the front.



Also, none of the straps will go around the biggest part of your calves. They don't on me anyway. The middle strap hits near the back of your knee and the bottom strap hits just below the big calf muscle. My calves are 16" around at the biggest point, and 12" the point where the bottom strap goes. The bottom strap, stretched all the way out is right at 22", if you include the part of the velcro that is actually over the bottom of the guard.

Ah, I see! Thanks for the detailed explanation... I may have to be on the lookout for a set of these....
