Redbacks Lightweight Advanced Slide-In Knee Pad For Workwear Trousers

Product Information

Excess body weight is not surprisingly an added risk factor so maintaining a healthy weight is a good idea all round! If you spend lots of time working on your knees, knee pads with wheels can be of tremendous help. Not only do they protect your knees, they also spare you from having to crawl around on all fours. The Milescraft 1603 knee pads with wheels are by far the most expensive entry on our list, but there’s a good reason for it — comfort.

So how do you test knee pads? Twenty drops in a row-straight onto concrete with your knees. I’m 40 years old, so that’s a high risk move by any standards. Still, anything for the sake of the test! That said, if you spend long periods of time on your knees and need mobility to perform your duties at work, we’d urge you to consider the Milescraft 1603 KneeBlades instead. Globally renowned rescue and performance outdoor clothing specialists Keela International and Ilasco Limited will be on stand number J13 at The Emergency Services Show (NEC Birmingham September 23-24, 2015), to display their comprehensive range of rescue and survival clothing and accessories.

Working on a myriad of feature films, Clint honed his skills as a dialogue editor, foley editor, and sound designer. Years later, he moved into the expanding area of video editing, where he served as the company’s senior AVID video editor for three years. They ride a bit below the knee at the top of the shin which felt strange but actually far better for prolonged comfort. If you’re after a pair of comfortable construction knee pads, the quality of the cushion is as essential as the toughness of the exterior shell. Both of these components must work in concert to shield your knees from stress.

I really wouldn’t stress too much. We’ve used a tonne of different foam knee pad inserts for work trousers, and there’s little difference in price, comfort, or quality. These construction knee pads also come with thigh support(!) and the straps are designed to stay out of your knees’ way when you bend them. To us, these features scream comfort. There are currently over 104,000 annually registered knee replacement operations in the UK 50% of which are accredited to occupational hazards; within the next 10 years the total figure will therefore exceed over a million people in the UK, many of whom may have damaged knees through inadequate protection whilst kneeling. Given we’re talking about our long-term health, knee pain, and our daily income, it’s a small price to pay. is one of the principal economic, educational, and cultural centres of north-eastern Masovia as well as one of the three main cities of Podlaskie Voivodeship (beside Białystok and Suwałki). It lends its name to the protected area of Łomża Landscape Park. The town is also the location of the Łomża Brewery.Comprised of two parts, the inner cushion is made from a rubberised plastic consisting of multiple leaf-springs within an open matrix which gently suspends and cushions the knees, and a breathable, water resistant, removable and washable cover; this has a non-slip and penetration-resistant bottom layer and a soft-stretch top that allows kneeling with bare knees without irritation.

Curved to fit around the knee, placing the knee in the correct position to reduce pressure on the ankle

Here’s what we loved about these construction knee pads — their outer casing is tough and unforgiving, whilst the cushion pampers your knee with a gel pad AND an EPE foam core. This way, the exterior takes all the beating from whichever rough floor surface you happen to be on, and the double cushion distributes your weight evenly to give you ultimate comfort. While trying the pair, we felt that the gel pads did a fantastic job of absorbing the pressure and relieving the stress on the knee caps. The strap securing the pads to the leg were also easy to adjust and take off, and didn’t cause any discomfort, whether the knee was bent or straight. Obviously with the lower-end foam products, once they’ve gone past maximum compression, they stay there, and don’t offer the protection they did when new. Constantly moving around on knees without the correct protection can cause friction which in turn can lead to skin abrasion from internal shear forces within the knee surface. These forces are extremely destructive and damaging to tissue and can lead to impaired blood flow, pain, tissue breakdown and pressure sores.

The patented design and construction of the company’s products are currently based on a special moulded leaf-spring suspended in an arch by a flexible honeycomb matrix. When pressure is applied directly above the spring it levels, dispersing the force and spreading the weight. The matrix provides a holding mechanism for the spring to control its bend and stabilise the entire structure, allowing pressure to be distributed evenly time after time. We tried these knee pads on while doing some plumbing beneath a sink, and were highly impressed with both the cushion and the tough outer shell. The latter proved sufficiently durable and resistant, and the straps did their job without being overly tight. However, depending on your brand of trousers, there might be a specific knee insert from that brand.

If you’ve ever spent much of your work day kneeling, you’ll know that ankle pain can become a problem.
