i may have to play around with the strapping because the reeboks have a double elastic strap and while the brian's only a single

Are you sure they're the right size? Or are you falling off the block with the pad shifting forward off of your leg? The latter will be a strapping issue fix. But if you're falling too high or too low, you have a sizing issue.

I think the only thing you're missing there is pro Warrior, which is also made in Canada. Basically all pro pads except Reebok/CCM (unless you're a pro or playing major junior in Canada) are made domestically. Everything else is offshore.
