![Top 5 Best Construction Knee Pads You can Buy Right Now [2024]](/img/n.gif)
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
Hi Paul, thanks for the positive feedback, glad you found it useful. Please share know your thoughts once you've made your investment, we'd love to hear what you think.
Thank you for the great review
Thank you, I'm glad you found it useful. Do you know what you'll go for?
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.
How do you find them for comfort?
@@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.
I'm sure you could, might get some strange looks though 😉.
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
A good wholesaler should allow you to try them on in the store.
Appreciate the detailed review! Can I ask what boots you’re wearing here?
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.
Just bought some toughbuilts but got the same problem, I’ve got skinny legs and they just don’t go small enough. Gunna try the Milwaukees
Please let me know how you get on with them.
Are the Milwaukee ones any good ?
@@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.
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.
the tough built ones to my knowledge come in 4 sizes S,M,L,XL (i have XL, and in the video you show L at 3:20 )
I've never seen the other sizes, even when searching for them.
It’s left and right I believe
I spoke to a Tough Built rep at the weekend, they only come in one size.
I just bought the Klein tools, They are very similar to the Toughbuilt ones and I had the same problem, they don't work for my little chicken legs 😢😢
@@saulsalinas6419 McAlpine do a good set that fit into the trouser knee pockets. Check out my Installer video.
Nooice!
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".
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.
Nice watch
Thanks, that's just my cheap Sekonda 😉
Regarding the 2nd knee pad, the does the hinged feature keep the knee pad from sliding down? Because the top section secures well above the knee? I noticed some knee pads have the hinge feature so I wondered if it would hold the knee pad in place. The knee pads I wear are hard shelled and I end up kneeling on the top edge of the knee pad because of slippage.
@@jodie1424Hi Jodie. Unfortunately not, I have yet to find a pair that does not slide, except perhaps the ProKnee (check out more recent videos). You will pay a lot for it, but they're measured to fit each individual.
@@jodie1424 actually the only pads that don't slide are the ones you insert into the trousers, McAlpine do a great version of this, you can see them in my latest Installer video. All the best. Please let me know how you get on.
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.
Take a look at the ProKnee, there's a link at the end of this video 🤘
I’d get roasted to hard at my job if I did that
@@dcapjunk if you did.... What exactly?😉
@@ChampionsOfTheTrade if I wore bungie cords
@@dcapjunk where are the bungee cords?
I've seen many interesting videos on PP. Just not on UA-cam.
Thank you, glad you liked it. Any of them spark your interest?
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)
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.
If you can, find a good wholesaler that'll let you try some on.
Let me know how you get 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
@@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.
Where abouts are you based?
Dude …. What brand of pants allow drop in knee pads
If you're referring to the make of work trousers I'm wearing in the video, they are Scruffs Pro Flex work trousers. I'll put a link in the description box later for you.
I'm wearing these ones, they are my go-to brand: Scruffs Trade Flex Work Trouser Black - amzn.to/3Zbz0iE
Dassy, flexible, softness, multipockets. I've got few of them and I love it
