    This was a really helpful review on knee pads! I’ve been looking at the toughbuilts for a while now. Might invest in the non-marring ones

      Thank you.
      The boots are Solid Gear (manufactured by Snickers), they have a ratchet system instead of laces and a carbon fiber toe cap. Possibly the most comfortable boots I've ever worn.

    The toughbuild clipon shells are for a different type of toughbuild knee pad. Those ones dont have the knee stabilization hinged thigh strap. Both are very good but i have very dodgie knees, so i stay with the stabilized ones, knid of a cross between a knee brace and a knee pad.

      @@ChampionsOfTheTrade very comfortable when kneeling, a little uncomfortable around the thighs when standing, but I have very large thighs. They do seem to be getting better the longer that I wear them. Seems like it's the plastic part that needs to be opened up for my thighs. But they do stop my knee hurting during walking and standing. One of the best knew braces I've ever had, shame I can't wear them all day every day.

      @@jamielong9963 If you're moving about on your knees without getting up then they're great, but if you get up and walk around, then I find that the do slip down, also not good when wearing shorts, I find the straps cut in the the back of my legs because I have them so tight, but this goes for all knee pads. For some strange reason, them manufactures must think that all trade people are large. I dread to think how the female trades cope.

  • @Pitbulls_and_Plumbing

    i bought some Rexbetty... I been wearing the for years, but they slide down and they have velcro straps, they do the job but could be better but i refuse to spend 50 bucks on something that looks to be better but are actually junk..I guess I will use what i have for the rest of my life

    Sorry mate but im pretty sure that the first pads You putting inside the pockets face backward. Ive got the similar by dassy. On my ones thete is a sign that says " knee this side".

    • @ChampionsOfTheTrade
      @ChampionsOfTheTrade  Před 11 měsíci

      I know exactly what you are saying, I have had several cheap knee pads in the past that say that, and I think they feel wrong putting them in the way the label says. How ever in the case of this video, the Scruffs pads that I inserted into the trousers do have a printing that says 'Inside', so in this case, they are the correct way round. Good spot though 👍, thanks for watching.

    I use the knee pad more often because the pair that straps on rubs the skin where the knee bends.

      I'm still looking for 'that' perfect solution. Being able to find the correct size would help, but only ever found large.

    What would be the best option for when you're constantly kneeling down and walking? My current knee pads always slip down, I'm looking for ones that won't fall down when walking and constantly getting up and down (I'm an electrician and work on big condo buildings, so I've got lot of electrical boxes and receptacle to install across all the units of a floor)

    • @ChampionsOfTheTrade
      @ChampionsOfTheTrade  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Unfortunately I'm yet to find the perfect knee pads, they all slip to some extent. The Tough built ones are my favorite, but more often than not, I tend to use a good kneel pad, it's the trade off of another thing to carry/move versus having to pull them back up every 10 minutes.

    • @ChampionsOfTheTrade

      If you can, find a good wholesaler that'll let you try some on.

      @@ChampionsOfTheTrade does the hinge design of the Toughbuilt help keeping the kneepad into place? I would think it's less prone to slippage when walking, but I might be wrong

    • @ChampionsOfTheTrade

      @@HCkev I find them a little too big so they do slip on me, the braces, I think are more for support and prevent twisting.
      Another option, but one I personally don't like, is using the pads that slide into the pockets on your trousers, they're cheap as chips, but make your knees sweat, and don't offer the same protection as the others.

    My biggest problem with knee pads is that I have chicken legs. i usually fix it by straping the knee pads to my belt with a bungie cord. It works well, but i plan to make something better some time.
