Product Information
Full details
These B&Q Professional Knee Pads are designed for construction workers, tradespeople, and athletes who require reliable joint protection during repetitive tasks. By utilizing three-dimensional weaving technology, these pads offer consistent compression and stability, helping to mitigate the risk of strain during long hours on the job or sports field. While they provide excellent comfort and breathability, they are primarily optimized for joint support and may not offer the extreme impact resistance of heavy-duty, hard-shell tactical knee pads.

FAQs
Can I wear these under my work trousers?
Yes, their low-profile design allows them to be worn comfortably under most work trousers.
Are these suitable for heavy-duty concrete kneeling?
While they provide excellent joint support and comfort, they are soft-shell pads and are best suited for use on softer surfaces or when combined with additional padding for hard, abrasive concrete.
How do I determine the right size?
Measure the circumference of your thigh approximately 10cm above your kneecap to match the sizing guidelines.
Do these help with existing knee pain?
The compression provided can help alleviate discomfort from fatigue, but they are not a medical device. Consult a healthcare professional for persistent pain.
How often should I wash them?
Wash as needed, ideally after heavy usage to remove sweat and prevent the buildup of bacteria in the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Knee pad sliding down during movement
Ensure the pad is placed directly over the knee joint and that the skin is dry; avoid wearing over loose-fitting trousers if possible.
Feeling of restricted blood flow
Ensure the size is correct for your leg circumference; if the restriction persists, take frequent breaks to allow for circulation.
Fabric irritation on the back of the knee
Check to ensure the fabric is pulled taut and smooth without any folds or bunches behind the joint.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality knit provides reliable stability
- Breathable fabric prevents overheating during physical labor
- Helps reduce the risk of joint over-stretching
- Versatile design suitable for both professional trade use and sports
- Comfortable fit for all-day wear
Cons
- Lacks external hard-shell protection for heavy debris
- Compression level may feel tight for some users initially
- Not intended for protection against sharp, piercing industrial hazards
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum effectiveness, slide the knee pads over your legs with the wider, woven section positioned directly over the kneecap. Ensure the material is smooth and not bunched behind the knee to prevent irritation during movement.
Care Instructions:
- Hand wash in cold water using a mild detergent to preserve the elastic properties of the weave.
- Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can break down the specialized fibers.
- Lay flat to air dry; do not tumble dry as heat can shrink the material and compromise the compression integrity.
