You fall a lot when learning to snowboard. Like, a lot. I had no knee protection for my first lesson and could barely walk the next day. Bought these and then after every fall I was able to bounce straight back up again and continue. No pain at all the next day. I tested them first by slamming my knees into the wall (as you do) and could tell they'd be good! I wore them over my base layer and under my salopettes and they didn't ride up or down.

Worked well when I was snowboarding in Austria for the first couple days but about 4 days in, I fell and bruised my knee massively and I had to go the hospital due to the pain and swelling, I believe that the knee pad moved sideways during my snowboard session allowing it to happen.Nevertheless, I may have had a massive bruise on my knee and I may have had to move my kneecap back but my other knee was untouched, no bruise in sight.I mean, it helped greatly from my previous trip there :)

Well, they aren't expensive, so chances are these are your first pair of knee protectors, well in that case they are the best bang for buck and I would recommend. Anti slip? Comfortable? No, they are not, the fabric is thick and bunches behind the knee - on long rides - and the pad is made of light weight foam, so they aren't gonna last, BUT, if you, like me are after a first pair, then I would say go get em, personally I didn't like them and took stopped wearing them on my second ride, as I'd rather smash my knee than pedal any further with these, but that's me, you might want to try knee pads, and these are good for that first try. I tried and didn't like knee pads.

to be fair, these were never advertised for the purpose I used them for, but I had a weekend of intensive medical training where the majority was spent on my knees "fixing" a dummy with simulated injuries, i bought these as I learnt my lesson from the time before. By the end of the training I had worn the padding down and it lost all protection, but it held up for the period I needed it for

They fit well and offer a lot of support. I have been using them for MMA - mainly for the grappling side if things. My only one critique is they do slide down a bit but generally this is not a major issue. They keep your knees warm and well supported. Must buy for anyone doing contact sports or any physical activity that puts pressure on the knee area.

these knee pads are excellent i use mine for work mostly especially when asking for a pay rise.

These knee pads are great. I've been laying a block pave driveway and they're just the job. Wear them under some loose fitting trousers. Unlike other pads, there are no straps that cut into your legs. The only thing I would say (and it's by no means a criticism) is that knowing what I do now I'd have probably bought the next size up (Large - X Large). I reckon I've got average leg width for a 90Kg male and whilst I've been happily wearing these all day without a hitch it felt good to get them off.

On the plus side the elastic holds well but as for the padding??The padding seemed really good to start with but after a few weeks use where did that padding go???Give these a miss unless you need them for a couple of days use.

Material is pretty warm, so not good if you're playing indoor sports. I train with volleyball twice a week & used these pads for 4 sessions. The padding is shifting inside and bunching up at the sides, leaving my knee mostly unprotected.I would say these are ok for casual, low intensity use. Beyond that, investing in better quality pads is 100% the better choice.

Love these knee pads. Easy to slip on or off. They hold in place well, dont have to keep adjusting them when wearing them. Comfortable to wear. I have been wearing them for the last week while working.I spend a lot of time in my job on my hands and knees in tight spaces. These pads are a god send. I ordered these are they came in 2 days. Well packaged. Extremely pleased.
