have you got a link for them ? thanks

Are they same size as snickers floor layer ones?

Hi all I was a marble floor layer for 22 years and the best knee pad are the big red ones designed by a German knee surgeon! They cost £50 and are bright red!! But when you put them on you will know they will last and are a top class bit of kit.

Just ordered a pair of those Redbacks. They look like they will be brill.

Just ordered those new snickers kneepads. My snickers 9118 are goosed after 2 years

Mine too. Wondered why my left knee has been a bit swollen and sore recently. Stupid thing is I didn't even think to check my kneepads. They are punctured and the foam beans inside have come out in the middle. Problem explained then!

The Snickers trousers I bought 4 months back already have a massive rip in them too. Not very impressed with Snickers these days, will look around next time.

I prefer the es style stuff.

on a note i said about toughbuilt, used them all day, they have cut into my legs.

so despite what they said, defo need to go over trousers.

If you order two sizes you get free return in every item. Also if they rip or come in stitched free replacements. One of my braces was ripped off and pulled threads, sent bCk and got new pair even though they were 3 months old!

I am not being funny lads but 6 yes six pages of plumbers waxing lyrical about sodding knee pads & yes I know how important protection is if you want a long installing career in this business.
Why can't you lot manage with what us oldens used, if we lucky, i.e. two bits of 50mm Armoflex lagging split down its length opened out & held in place with single strand wire.
Youngsters of today I don't know, everything has become a fashion statement. :smile5: :yawn:
