Knee Protection.

[Sacarathe]

What are good brands for knee pads and/or trousers (multicam) with integrated knee pads?

I wanted to kneel a lot at my first airsoft game. I am not on a limited budget for this because I have problem with one of my knees and need to give it specific protection. That said, I would prefer to be cost effective.

Also, I know nothing about integrated knee pads, though I've heard can be removable.

(I also don't know where to shop, but I assume I can just google the brands once I have the information.

I use Military 1st for most of my gear. There might be others a bit cheaper but Military 1st have always given me good service.

I have a couple pairs of Emerson trousers with the built in knee pads. I bought one pair new for about £60 then another pair of here for £15. They've been perfect! I've also used the blackhawk kneepads which are good but the backs of my knees after a day's gaming look like mince meat!

if you are testing water or starting out then I can vouch for these:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Osprey-6-Pc-Pad-Combo-Set-Guards-Protection-Quads-Inline-Skateboards-Bike-ADULT-/190995531478?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&var=&hash=item2c783886d6

heck I know they are a full set but suppose you can give adult elbow pads to a younger player perhaps

often it is hard to find large adult osprey - most of time they are large kids or teenagers which ain't the same

they slip on ya jeans/trousers as well as velcro straps top/bottom of pad

the result is they stay up better than some others that end up sliding down round your ankles like a tarts knickers

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll let you know how it works out (saves me dropping £60 on good multicam trousers and the time to research it further).

it was another chap on here : Happy who had used these type

He was using Halford's skateboard/cycling pads and they stayed up

I had bought a paintball/airsoft pair and they just kept coming down all the time - waste of money

couldn't find them exact ones but have bought a few of them adult Osprey's and they are very good but we will need Large Adult set

(get medium and they could be a bit tight unless you are a younger teenager)

ok black but wtf.... if doing a black cqb loadout or its dark who will know

besides dropping to ya knees onto some old bb's is nearly as painful as stepping on kid's lego in bare feet

I use Kombat UTP ones, they are excellent and fit incredibly well: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kombat-UTP-Elasticated-Hard-Wearing-Spec-Ops-Knee-Pads-Paintballing-Protection-/251849566242

Thanks for the rec, but £22 vs £12 cant be beat, i'll be going integrated next but a £12 option gives me lots of time to research.
