Fox Launch Knee Pads - Black

The primary benefit is superior impact absorption and abrasion resistance, combined with comfort and mobility for trail riding.

These knee pads are designed for trail riding and general mountain biking. For extreme impacts typical of downhill racing, more specialized and heavily reinforced protection might be recommended.

Refer to the manufacturer's sizing chart, which typically involves measuring your knee circumference. Ensure a snug fit without restricting circulation.

Yes, they are designed to be worn either directly on the skin or over thin cycling shorts. However, wearing them over very bulky padded shorts might affect the fit and comfort.

Knee pads should be replaced if they show signs of significant wear, damage to the impact-absorbing materials, or if their protective integrity is compromised from a hard impact.

ARIAPRENE® is a breathable material that enhances airflow, contributing to the overall comfort and keeping the rider cooler during activity.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try adjusting the fit by ensuring the straps (if any) are snug but not overly tight. Proper positioning is key; make sure they are pulled up fully before riding.

Verify the sizing is correct. The pre-curved ergonomic fit should conform naturally. If chafing occurs, ensure the inner lining is clean and consider wearing thinner cycling socks underneath.

While designed with ventilation, intense heat can still make any protective gear feel warm. Ensure the mesh panels are clear of debris. For extreme heat, consider shorter rides or taking breaks.
