    This is exactly why I bought a pair of Outlast pants from Smokin' Paintball (http://www.smokinpaintball.com/products/pants.asp). They have pockets built into the knees for the kneepads, so they are always in place but you don't have to strap anything to your knee.

      I've got chickenlegs and always had problems with finding pads small enough, but now have some Trace volleyball pads (knee only, not knee + shin) which fit really well, lycra backed with a velcro strap too, they never move.

            Your number one best option is the smokin outlast paintball pants. The have built in removable knee pads that work flawlessly. They don't bind down on your legs because they fit into pocketts on the pants themselves so they are baggy with the pants. However, when you go to slide or kneel down they are right where you need them when you need them.

            check out this thread for more info
            Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.


            plus they have large patches of hemp sewn into the knee and thigh area. Hemp is the most durrable fabric in existance (except for maybe kevlar).

                I wear WeThePeople knee pads. They are for biking, I don't wear them biking anymore; they are all neoprene with a plastic sandwiched between it. You can wear them all day they are so comfy. They are also really old (durable) but if they still make them check out albes mailorder or danscomp (the first one first).

                  I use Redz pads... Gotta make sure they're tight (just like anything else) but other than that, they hold up great.

                          Naww man! i had DYE pants and forearm/Elbow pads, not knee pads. If i could i would of got football forearm guards, they hold up better and are cheaper.

                              Personally...I've tried the dye, skater knee pads,the jt skinz, and finally settled on the redz shin/knee pads. I love the redz because they don't slide down or move during the day of play. They are also comfortable enough that I don't mind wearing them all day long without taking them off for a bit. I wear them inside my pants, but I wear a pair of thermal underwear that keeps the straps from digging into my skin. I love them, just wish I would have found them sooner to save myself all the money I spent on other knee pads

                                I use a pair of Jt Skinz, I put them on first before I put my pants on.. they are like stocking's.
                                Never fall down and sure help the old knees alot.

                                JT Racing will be a brand grounded in its heritage, but focused on the future. No longer just about the sport, but about the lifestyle.
