    No idea, I have never worn pads, bought a pair of snikers years ago with built in pads and found them too uncomfortable, I took the pads out and folded some underlay and used that for the padding, worked ok for a while. Brought up in Liverpool where they breed 'em tough so no need for Knee pads!!!!
