## Description

Product Description The Sellstrom KneePro Hybrid Ultra Flex III Knee Pads features unique gel packs which are placed inside a triple layer 3/4" closed cell foam compartment. The gel brings maximum comfort for users who need to kneel, crawl, or squat for long periods of time. Because of its secure placement and protection, the gel pads are guaranteed to be leak proof. Our knee pads are specially designed to target the patella (the triangular bone that covers the knee joint). The durable, hard black plastic shell is combined with an orange grip strip that provides security and traction without leaving any marks or residue behind. Metal rivet hinge assures easy movement and flexibility. Elastic woven straps have reinforced sewn ends and are attached well above and below the knee, so there is no binding or pressure behind the knees. Speed clip closure allows for quick attachment and is adjustable for a custom, comfortable fit for both men and women. Manufacturer Contact Information Sellstrom

Review: KP Industries Knee Pro Ultra Flex III Knee Pads - KP Industries Knee Pro Ultra Flex III Knee Pads I just went down to my shop and counted the pairs of kneepads I had on my shelf before these arrived. Three pairs, and I don't really like any of them. I've been searching for good kneepads for years, as have many of you. I would have been willing to spend three or four times the cost of the Knee Pro Ultra Flex III pads in order to get some that worked as well as these do. Here are some specifics: First, they actually protect your knees. Some of those on my shop shelf don't do even this very well. These Ultra Flex III pads are made of tough, mostly hard plastic. The plastic is thin enough, about 1/8 inch, that it will bend a bit to conform to your leg somewhat. Inside the hard plastic shell is a piece of foam rubber padding. The padding is attached only on the lower shell half, and is not needed on the upper one. The rubber looks like it's the closed-cell type, which means that it won't absorb sweat and start stinking, at least not for a while. The padding covers the entire inner surface of the lower shell, thereby padding the sides of your knee, as well as allowing you to snug down on the elastic straps to stabilize the kneepads on your legs. About those straps: They are simply pieces of elastic that are a nominal 1 inch wide by about 14 inches long. My legs measure about 17 inches around just above the knee and outside my blue jeans. When the straps on these kneepads are adjusted the way I like them, there is about 5 inches on the top half and 7 inches on the bottom half of excess strap material beyond the buckle. I'll cut this off sometime soon, but it looks like there's plenty of strap length if your legs are larger than mine. The straps are attached to the shell pieces by passing them through a slot in the shell, folding the strap over upon itself several times, and sewing the resulting lump. The lump prevents the strap from pulling through the slot. The point is that when the straps finally lose their elasticity, or if they break, you can easily replace them with pieces from your local sewing center. The buckles are simple things. They have a protrusion on the inside that hooks into a keyhole shaped hole in the side of the shell. An extra buckle is provided in case you lose one. Isn't that thoughtful? The extra buckle is attached to the pull-cord on the mesh bag that is provided for storage. That bag is a nice touch, but I consider mine to be too good to use for storing kneepads; I'll use it for something else. Obviously, the hard plastic shell isn't going to breathe at all, so the area covered by the kneepads will tend to get hot and sweaty. I used mine on a relatively cool day and my legs still got a bit damp. In hot weather this could become an issue, as it has with all my other kneepads. The lower shell half has a "non-slip" pad attached to the outside, right where your knee contacts the floor. This pad is only mildly non-slip, but it seemed to be enough to do the job on the plywood sub-floor that I was crawling around on. I'm sure that my knees would have skidded all over if the hard plastic shell rested directly on the surface. As shown in the photo, the non-slip pad is curved to match the curvature of the shell. This allows you to lean without fighting your kneepads. I have a different pair of pads (on that shelf) with flat-bottomed non-slip pads. Those worked fairly well for flooring, but were a nuisance on irregular surfaces like a gravel driveway or a garden. I prefer the pad on these Ultra Flex III pads. While there are lots of things that are done right on these pads, I did discover that sometimes the inside rivet on one pad would catch on the shell or inside rivet on the opposite pad, effectively pinning my knees together. The rivets are also made of plastic, so they will yield if you exert just a little pull but it's annoying. The plastic shells fit the size and shape of my legs just fine, but if you have particularly slender or large legs, you may have issues with these pads. The shells are slightly flexible, but probably not enough to make large adjustments in size. The edges of the hard plastic shells are not smoothed, so they can scratch as they rub on bare skin. I can also see how they can pinch or catch leg hair if you wear them with bare legs. I don't, so that's not an issue for me. Looking at the way these kneepads are made makes me wonder why they cost as much as they do. This is not to say that they are junk, but they are clearly very inexpensive to manufacture. The tag says they are made in China, and I'd guess that they don't cost the manufacturer more than $5, delivered in the U.S. The only thing that makes these kneepads worth the money is the design, which is superior to any other pads I have used. Viewed from a different perspective, the price is very reasonable for how well these perform, but a bit excessive considering the cost to produce them. The main issue that sets these kneepads apart from the others is the hinge. Did you ever see a suit of armor from England in 1500? These kneepads use that same 600-year-old technology. That hinge, together with straps both above and below the crease behind your knee, makes these the most comfortable kneepads I have ever worn. I took a break for lunch and to check my e-mail. It wasn't until I got up from the computer that I realized that I had been wearing the kneepads during the entire break. Contrary to the old review from 2008, the photo now shows exactly what I received. I also noticed that another reviewer commented that she didn't think these pads would last very long. I think they will, partially because they are very simple. Anyone with mechanical skills can replace almost anything on them easily and cheaply. Even the pads can be re-glued or replaced. If the shell cracks, buy another pair. Two final issues: 1. When you stand up and walk around, these kneepads stay right where they belong. They do not slide down your leg or turn sideways. Once you put them on you do not have to fiddle with them continually to keep them in place. 2. The straps do not wind up in the crease behind your knee. Many, if not most, of the other kneepads I have used eventually dig into the back of my knees as the straps migrate there. There's something about the design of these Ultra Flex III pads that keeps both the shells and the straps where they belong. I think it's that hinge. Highly recommended.
Review: Best knee pads in the world! - I don't usually write reviews but this item really deserves a few minutes of my time to let other hard workers and laborers know that if they are looking for high quality knee protection, they don't need to look any further. I have owned these for over a year now, and when I say I am extremely rough on all my tools and equipment it is a massive understatement. I am 6'6 and 240 lbs, I have worked jobs where I was kneeling down on dirt, rocks, pavement, and just about any other hard surface you can imagine literally hundreds of times a day, over a year later these things are still going strong, practically bulletproof. The straps haven't given an inch, haven't wilted or torn, the pads are still firm haven't flattened or thinned out at all. Another surprise is that they really aren't uncomfortable in the least, they don't slip or slide down my legs, they don't cut off circulation either, and keep in mind that I average twelve to fourteen hour days. I tried all the highest priced pads from the big box hardware stores and they never lasted longer than a few months. When I first opened the box I had my doubts, they looked cheap and far too light, boy was I wrong. I couldn't imagine needing to replace these any time soon. I can say without reservation that this is the best work related purchase I've ever made.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will they slide down my leg and not stay on my knee?**
A: They won't slide down at all. If you are up and down a lot, your pant legs may bunch up a little underneath the pads. I will order another pair soon as these are great knee pads.

**Q: Has anybody worn these with shorts? It looks like the top part of the pad is just plastic/no padding. No problem with pants but with shorts might dig**
A: Yes, worn with shorts and they do not dig.

**Q: How is the mobility allowance of these pads?**
A: No mobility hindrance, best knee pads ever.

**Q: Is this item fast shipping?**
A: Yes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great set of knee pads!
*by H***Y on April 10, 2013*

After 20+ years installing commercial flooring, I can tell you that these are the best low-price knee pads you can find! The straps hold the pads in place all day long without binding, pinching or coming loose. The buckles hold tight, yet let loose with the snap of a finger when you want to take them off. The rubber padding is soft and comfortable. The orange wear pads don't scuff the flooring. The hinges are metal and don't come loose or break off. I know that there are pads out there that are custom fit and cost around $200, but for comfort, I'll put these ones up against them any day. They're lightweight and for less than $30 you can't go wrong. If I have a complaint about these knee pads, it would be that at the end of a long day, they make your knees stink to high heaven. If you remember to take them off at break time and let your knees air out, it's not so bad. The pair I just ordered are the tenth pair I have owned. From crawling around on rough concrete all day long every day, I tend to wear out the orange wear pads and I know it's time to order new ones when I wear through the hard plastic underneath that.
