Toughbuilt gel knee pads.

[Dave]

I bought them last week and surprisingly they are very good. The do dig in a little on the side of the leg but the straps are brill as they don't hurt. By far best pads I've bought.

Cheers Sean , interesting point on the digging into the leg... Is the padding to the knee good ?

 

[Dave]

I doubt if the thigh straps are long enough for you David!

I do like a good strapping TJ :lol:

Looking after ones knees is looking after your future...

Second that. Can't put a price on your knees!

Got a pair a couple of weeks ago from Tradetiler they are ok bit pricy but in my opinion the small bulge at the bottom of the pads is a pain it pushes the pad to the side so have decided to cut it of, really dont know what it suppose to do and the wide straps could be a bit longer apart from that they are comfortable, I got them as I suffer with osteoarthritis which is getting worse.

Oh I have just read that the lower nib alleviates pressure to the ankles for me it makes it worse.

 

[Dave]

Mmm not sounding good then .

I've yet to find a pair of knee pads that I can get on with? Tried allsorts, but with my skinny legs, they always end up moving about too much. I have got a pair of red backs somewhere, but never used, as it can't find them........will stick to my foam pad that just gets kicked about......at least till I find the red backs.

 

[Dave]

I did read on Twitter that redbacks are releasing the strap on version of their knee pads in the new year. .. I might wait till then .

 

[afright]

I know an old floor screeder who makes his from tryes .The only good ones I ever had was from the coal pit I always got them from the miners but now thats all gone its been hard to find a good pair.

Yes the padding is very good. I've recently had swelling on the knee and it's been uncomfortable for a few weeks and after using these I couldn't feel any pain. I wasn't looking forward to the straps but again they are brill and don't dig into your legs
