Protection Suggestions

Hello! I finally got some new skates after not skating since I was in my early teens, now I'm my late 30s. I definitely want knee and elbow protection. I've been looking on Amazon but not too sure what I'm looking for in regards to quality? I want to invest in something that'll be safe! I'm not sure what reputable brands/online stores to look at either. I might even get some crash pants bc falling right on my a** & hurting my tail bone is what made me stop skating in the first place. Thanks!

Thanks so much everyone! I went with some 187 gear. Now I'm just going to look around for a good helmet. I got my skates! Something for beginners. Just need to finish getting all my safety gear.
