I’m in a similar boat to the OP I’ll need a new set of knee pads soon, my 661 Evos have done a grand job but they’re starting to fall apart and as I managed to pay just £25 for them a fair old while back, I won’t be able to get another pair for under £50 now it seems, Most of the other recommended pads seem to be ~£45 or more.
So looking at all the others out there the KS start to seem like the best priced pads available, is there any compelling reason to spend twice as much for a D30 pad or other features Vs paying a shade under £30 for some plain old Kyle Straights?
I do like my EVOs but I’m just not sure its £50+ worth of like, despite having used them for a shade over 2 years now and found the D30 does seem to work in a tumble, it’s not like the KS are Bad pads… Right?
