Hi I have a quick question.
Do people wear knee pads under their paintball trousers or are they that padded now there is no need?

Knee pads

Yes! I still wear decent heavy duty knee pads whenever I play, and our team trousers are very padded in the legs...
Yes you should wear knee pads, Even if your pants have some form of knee padding
Playing gear is trying to get lighter and lighter these days and manufactures are cutting down padding in there pants
Because an actual knee pad is more than enough
Don't forget your elbow pads as well

There are different kinds of knee pads.
JT and some others used to make knee/shin pads that were supposed to be worn over the trousers.
These days, most people use them under the trousers. You might also want to consider volleyball pads - very comfy

I Don't know 100% what volleyball knee pads are made for or Motocross
but I would stick to paintball protection if your playing paintball they are designed for the type of impact you might get when diving around kneeling on stones etc
Like I said I don't know exactly what volleyball and motocross are made for without researching it, I would imagine Motocross pads would be very hard padding to try take the impacts of a fall

Thank you all for your advice, to be honest elbow pads never crossed my mind.
Something else to hide from my wife.

The new GI knee protection is great and works well even when your legs get sweaty and wet heads up for those ones.
And YES a knee and elbow pads are a must have!
