Knee Pads?

[j.storm]

Can anyone recommend a good set of knee pads. Looking for something to go under my C4's for a little more protection. I'm looking at the new Dye pads atm.... Anyone know if these are any good on bare leg? Any brand is good really, but need to A: Go under my pants, and B: be snug yet movable and breathable. Suggestions?

Empire, I wear both empire knee and elbow pads. And as a replacement for slidershorts I wear a pair of cut-off sweat pants, which go slightly below the knee, then I put the knee pads over that, most pads are constricting, the way I do it I barely feel they're on, it's pretty tight.

Other bonus with empire pads is they're pretty big, and won't fall down like others.

I recommend their elbow pads too, VERY comfy and padded.

the j.t. skinz is good stuff. fits nice and stays in place and is very comfortable.

The dye pads have some material all the away around the knee. It has been uncomfortable and twaked things out back there before. Once I was running to bunker someone and a tendon or something got jolted out of place and my leg gave out under me... I got shot.

would that be the new 05 pads or the older models?

I play almost entirely scenario now, so I use the hard shell tactical knee pads. They are easier on the knees.
When playing tourney ball I don't use any knee pads.

Jstorm, next time you go up to CDR's field ask them if you can check out some kneepads, then head to the store, they'll probably let you check them out/try them on.

Not the cheapest, but definately the best.

I use the JT Skinz as well. They work great.

The flurry knee pads are pretty cool. I always wear shorts and they work great. http://www.flurryindustries.com/protectivegear.html

Those were 2004's but I think the 2005's only differences are cosmetic.
