FAQs

What age group are these knee guards intended for?

These knee guards are specifically designed for the 'kids' age group, suitable for young cyclists.

How effective is the Pro-Shape protector?

The Pro-Shape protector is designed to absorb up to 83% of the force from an impact, preventing it from being transmitted to the knee.

Are these knee guards breathable?

Yes, 55% of the protector's surface area is open for ventilation, and the elastic fabric is highly breathable, ensuring good heat exchange.

How do I clean the knee guards?

Hand wash with mild soap and cold water, rinse thoroughly, and air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean.

What materials are used in these knee guards?

The materials include Jersey hole Highly Breathable, Run-resistant mesh, 100% PVC components, and a blend of 90% Polyester and 10% Elastane for the fabric.

Will these guards restrict movement?

No, the Pro-Shape protector's structure is designed for maximum flexibility, adapting to all knee positions and tracing the movements of the rider.

Are these guards suitable for professional racing?

They are excellent for junior riders and general cycling activities. For extreme disciplines requiring maximum armor, other specialized guards might be considered.

Troubleshooting

Knee guards slipping down during use

Ensure you have selected the correct size and that the extra-wide elastic bands with silicone grippers are properly positioned and making contact with the skin. Clean the silicone grippers if they appear dirty, as this can reduce their grip.

Discomfort or chafing

Verify that the size is correct. The guards should be snug but not too tight. Ensure the seams are not causing irritation and consider wearing a thin base layer underneath.

Reduced protection effectiveness

Make sure the Pro-Shape protector is correctly aligned over the knee joint. Check for any damage to the protector or fabric that might compromise its integrity.
