Give the Redback lites a try !

They look a bit space age.

Dunno which ones to go for now !!

The red backs are very heavy, a pair of braces will be required rather than your belt cutting your hips to bits

I prefer Fento's when I'm doing only floors and Barwalts when I'm on walls and up and down a lot.

They do scrub through pretty quickly if you're on rough concrete floors like most of us are. I get about 10 months out of mine, 2 pairs on rotation.
I just hate strap ons, so i put up with it.
I also save old pairs and superglue patches into any knee holes. From the inside, they look ok and it works well.[/QUOI

Strap ons? Something your not telling us?

Ah just been watching a couple videos on the red backs and reading reviews and they do look pretty good. But might be an issue if there gonna pull my trousers down!

I've never used either of those Lee, only Alpro and cheapies. Have you tried Alpro ones? If so, how do you compare them to the Fento and Barwalts

Can't stand them. Painful. Really hurts round the back







(Of the knees)

 

[LM]

The problem I have with alpros is the way addy sticks to them and builds up, every month or so I find myself having to try and pick them clean of an inch of addy etc, which isn't easy as addy and grout stick to them really well. They are very bulky also and you have to wear them for weeks before they mould to your shape.

Barwalt are very light and are excellent when wall tiling, they offer great protection and are very light.
For floors I have to take my hat off to the Dutch, Fento have invested heavily in technology here and it shows. All the wood flooring trade I talk to swear by them and the Dutch being amongst the foremost in that trade shouldn't be ignored. I find them to be one of the best I've heard or came across. When kneeling it's actually all about shin support to prevent bad backs etc and Fento have it sussed.
