Hi to you all - I have had an op on my knee and wondered if any one knows the name / make of a good knee type protectors on the market. Thanks.

[Joe H]

Dont know the name of a good one but there are loads about.
Some have gel in, others foam, or other substance.
I was doing a laminate floor in my house last year and I bought a cheap pair, about £7. proved their worth but the straps that go round the leg above and below the knee were the uncomfy part.
Also used them when I was changing a wheel on my car.

More expensive Gel ones are best do a search for Arco they sell loads of PPE

[Ken Wainwright]

I regulary use knee pads. I have a pair of good quality gel pads which look and feel the Bee's Knees  But I don't wear them. I've also got a pair of cheap, crapy pads from B&Q and I wear them all the time. The reason? The fit. If they don't fit properly/comfortably then they're of little value.

Just try different ones until you find what you like.

safe and happy praying
Ken

I have trousers that allow pads to be inserted in the knee area then removed when not needed

i got some off of QVC they are called the Nailer Knee Pads and are fantastic, cost about £30
used to use the ones that insert inside of the trousers but tended to where the kness out really quickly so had to buy new trousers
hope this helps

I buy Nailers from the local Sunday market  - £6.00! and they are excellent, still using the first pair after over 2 years use.
