Great Knee Pads,

I am an older skater (mid 30's) and these are the best pads I have ever owned. As good as the best technology (Pro Design) we had back in the 80s/90s for a very reasonable price.

They are secure, extremely comfortable to skate in (even with crossovers!), comfortable to wear, easy to put on (you can put them on AFTER your skates!), durable, and offer extreme protection. I have never had a knee injury with them and I do *a lot* of aggressive skating. The kneecaps are attached by an indistrial velcro and I have never had one of the caps fall off in my 4 years of the TSG IIs. The TSG IIIs that I recently purchased have an even more secure design. TSG does sell alternative kneecaps in various prints (ex: white, leopard, and checker print) however as soon as they hit the ground the design scrapes off (except for the white kneecaps).
I purchased the large kneepads and they work extremely well for my thicker legs and calves (I wear a size 14). They have a lot of stretch but are reinforced so that they won't...Read more
