Equipment: Block M thigh pads are real

Submitted by Wolverine Devotee on

Awhile ago, there was a thread posted by a user that found a tweet saying Michigan would be wearing logo'd thigh pads.

No one, including myself, had any idea if this was legit or what these would actually look like on a player.

Well, they're real. Hopefully they won't be worn for games.

I doubt you'll see many of the skill players at receiver or corner have these since most wear smaller thigh boards that the "M" would not fit on at that size. Would mainly be more on lineman, some linebackers, and tight ends.
