Knee pads

alpros for me

The velcro on my alpros are a pain in the rear lately, i'll have to adapt them a little i think.

Might have to try red backs. Prefer trouser inserts and if they fit my scruffs then should be a winner

Just ordered me a set of redbacks. Wouldn't mind giving them a try

Redbacks came today. There great. Very heavy but does the job well. No more sliding to the side & hurting the knees.

So definitely worth it?

Extremely comfortable to kneel on, even rolling of to the side your still protected. My pockets are normally loaded so don't really notice the extra weight though on there own there rather heavy.

Id give them 10-10 for comfort when using them & 8-10 for practicality on walking about with them & sitting/driving etc

Yeah couldn't agree more, expensive knee pad, was hesitant spending so much money but they have been worth it, velcro does kind os stretch a bit so they can be a bit loose but still a good buy

panopoly for me all day they fit perfect and to stop them moving in pocket use spray adhesive

My only problem with trousers with inserts is I can't find a pair short enough do when I kneel down I have to hitch up my trousers otherwise the pads just protect my shins lol

I'm 6'1" & I have the same problem. With the Panoply pads, I didn't need to pull them up before kneeling but with the Redbacks, I have to pull them up or the top of the pads sit under my knee caps & when I kneel, it pulls my trousers down. Little annoying.

I am the same size but dont have those issues. I use Redbacks and find them great. Maybe its the trousers that cause issues. ?

What do you do when it comes to washing them?

Good chance it is Ramic but ive used various work trousers from Durakit to Panoply & they all seem to hang pretty low. What briefs do you use?

Maybe leg length or a combination of leg size, Jeans and pads ? Who knows, I found a good combination with redbacks and Clik Hexham jeans....works for me .
