CaptainDumbass Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Recently invested in a lovely pair of knee pads and they look great with my Loadout, the only problem I'm having with them is that they keep slipping whenever I run, I've tryed crossing the straps but they still fall down, has anyone got any advice on how to stop this?

Supporters Nutster Posted May 5, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 5, 2013 You can take 4 belt loops (or other small strips of matching material) and sew them so that they hold the top straps on either side of your knee pad. Should hold them in place nicely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainDumbass Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 Do you mean sewing the pads onto my bdu trousers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheriffHD Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 i think he means sew on loops for the knee pad straps to go through, that way you can still remove them for washing purpose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zak Da Mack Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 one guy at the site I go to uses duct tape around the top and bottom to stop them from slipping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should hold them in place nicely As the Cap'n says, Genius! Mine never slip down so far that they cause me problems, but over the course of a day I have to hitch them up several times and sometimes the top of my knee gets stabbed with something I've knelt on. I'm not convinced that velcro is the way forward - it's not exactly comfy stuff to have at the back of your knee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
