Knee Pads

There are tons of knee pads designed for paintball. I don't wear them (due to always having other stuff for my money to disapear on), but from what ive heard the Dye core knee pads and the redz comforts are the best. Apperently the JT Skinz slip quite a lot.

The Dye ones have great protection but i found them a bit constrictive round the back of the knees when kneeling. The JT ones always slip down with me until i stitched them on to my slide shorts. Now they stay in place no probs. I've heard good things about the reds pads. Lots of protection, not constrictive, and don't slip down. However these ones are a bit more expensive.
Tell you what might be worth a look, the new Empire knee pads. Don't know anything about them, but they look funky!

old school trace knee shin pads rule as well mate, if you can get a pair (they will be cheap). very thick closed cell foam, have never been hurt on the knees while wearing these- don't quite have the same cool factor as dye pads tho

Id reccommend the redz, I havent tested them but based on how awsome the redz comfort belt is, they know their stuff when it comes to comfort and clothing stuff like that.
Im prolly gettin redz ones, I do alot of droping to 1 knee, sliding, etc, and it hurts.
