Thread: Paw Knee pads

PIC_0089.jpgPIC_0090.jpgPIC_0091.jpgbill.jpg

OK I have included some pics of the paws being worn by me on bare legs so you can see how they wear as I wear UA full legs under when I play and you wont be able to see as well as the leggings are all black also.

Any Paw product you order online from Sara will be custom made to your measurements and colour/material selection.

This model is a PAW PKP 1000 Knee Pads SR and this is the specifications;
cordura nylon shell :Black
nash liner colour : grey
leg measurement 5" above knee cap :23"
leg measurement 6" below knee cap :17.5"
no tab needed
You can have a tab added to attach to your pants if wanted.

I paid a total of $65.00 USDA and that included shipping to Vancouver Canada and this took about 2 1/2 weeks from ordering to arriving at my door.

I had a previous pair of the RBK silver knee pads with the plastic knee cap and after awhile hated them, I had sore knees and they moved/slipped and were not a good product for me at all.

I wore the Paws and thought they might be abit bulky in the knee cradle of my pads but they fit well, they did not move at all around my legs and my knees felt protected, as did my thighs. The rotation of the pad with these on was fine, no issues what so ever. I have taken a few hard shots and was hit on the inner thigh area that the Paws curl in and they protected me fine as I barely felt the shots at all. The velcro straps are strong and are holding up and I have never had them slip on me at all. The nash liner helps with it staying in place I think but i have never worn them with bare legs, only with the UA leggings. They wick away sweat but also dry very well and dont smell at all, I use a bacterial/odour spray and hang dry them after each use on my hockey tree so i am sure that helps.

The construction of the Paws are excellent, no frays or wear of any kind are showing yet. The velcro is heavy duty and the strappings shown no wear, not even from stretching them. All the stiching is tight and no signs of fraying or splitting. They have molded HDPE inserts for easy break in and a comfort foam for shock absorption. They are very light weight even though they look abit bulky and i dont even notice I wear them while playing.

As far as what goalie pads work well with these I have a set of Itech X-wings 7.8 and have worn a friends set of RBK PII's and they fit well in them also. I would suspect they work well with most pads.
