Sizing

One size. They'll fit.

  • Both straps adjust the full length, so they close down small and open out wide.
  • Worn over your pants, not under them, so your build and your workwear don't change the fit.
  • Fits calves roughly 12 to 22 inches around. If you're outside that, email us before you order.

Not sure? Order them. You've got 60 days and we cover return shipping.

Tiling a whole ground floor last week and got up at the end of the day without that stabbing feeling in my kneecaps. The gel actually spreads it out instead of squashing flat after an hour.

Every pair I have owned slides down to my ankles by lunch. These have a strap above the calf as well, so they just stay put. Sounds small, it is not.

Went from a concrete pour straight onto the client's oak floor and left no marks. Six months on a slab most days and the gel has not packed down like the cheap pairs I kept binning.

🔨 WHAT CHANGES ON SITE

The 4 Things That Change

What happens when your knees stop being the thing you think about halfway through the day

01
DAY 1

Off the Concrete

You kneel down on a slab and it is the pad taking it, not your kneecap. The gel spreads the load down the shin instead of concentrating it on one bone.

"First day on a tile job and I forgot I was kneeling. That never happens."

No shuffling to find a soft spot. No kneeling on a folded towel because your old pads gave up.

02
WEEK 1

They Stop Sliding

The two-strap system is the difference. One above the calf, one below the knee, so the pad stays put when you move between spots.

You stop reaching down to yank them back up every ten minutes. Over a full day that is a hundred small interruptions you no longer have.

03
MONTH 1

The Ache Goes Away

The stiffness getting out of the truck in the morning eases off. You get up off the floor without pushing on your thigh to do it.

Not because you changed how you work, but because your knees stopped absorbing eight hours of hard surface every day.

04
MONTH 6

Still The Same Pair

Cheap pads are foam, and foam is done in a season. The gel is still spreading the load the way it did on day one, and the cap has taken everything the site has thrown at it.

That is the whole idea. One pair that lasts, not a disposable set you replace every few months and never think about.

GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

Three layers, each doing a different job:

  1. Hard outer cap — takes the screw, the stone and the tile chip
  2. Gel core — spreads the load instead of packing down like foam
  3. Ventilated mesh backing — the layer against your leg, so heat can get out
  4. Wide two-point straps — held above the calf and below the knee
Why this matters: cheap pads are foam and a bit of plastic. Foam packs flat in a season and then you are kneeling on the shell. Gel keeps spreading the load, and the hard cap means the thing taking the abuse is not the part against your knee.

It is the same construction the expensive pads use, without the expensive price.

This is the complaint that kills most knee pads by hour three. Two things cause it: thin straps, and a strap sitting behind the knee joint.
MATERIALS
  • Wide webbing spreads the pressure instead of digging a line into your calf
  • One strap above the calf, one below the knee, so nothing crosses the joint itself
  • Both adjust, so you can run them loose and let the shape hold them up
GOOD TO KNOW
  • If your legs are going numb, they are too tight, not too big
  • Both straps adjust, so you can run them loose
  • Built for kneeling work, not impact sports
Still marking floors? the cap is a non-marking polymer, safe on tile, hardwood, vinyl and laminate. Wipe the grit off before you move onto a finished floor, since trapped grit is what scratches, not the pad.
Cleaning: hose the shell down or wipe it with warm water and a mild soap.
Less than solid foam pads, which trap everything. The backing is open mesh, so heat and moisture have somewhere to go instead of sitting against your leg. In summer you will still sweat, but the pads are not the thing making it worse, and the shell wipes down at the end of the day instead of holding it.

The motor system stays under 40dB, quiet enough for shared spaces. It's compact enough to pack in a travel bag, charges via a magnetic port that's carry-on friendly, and has a lock function so it can't switch on by accident. It's designed to work comfortably lying down, seated, or standing.

The Full Kit is the pads plus a pair of cut-resistant work gloves and a carry case. Pair Only is the pads on their own.
