Dakine Mayhem Knee Pads

While they are built for gravity-focused riding, the articulating design and breathable construction make them comfortable enough for all-day trail riding. They are specifically engineered to balance impact protection with pedaling efficiency, so you won't feel restricted during long climbs.

The Dakine Mayhem pads feature an articulating structure designed to move with your knee joint. This ergonomic fit helps the armor stay securely positioned throughout your ride, preventing the slipping often found in bulkier pads.

They are built with a lightweight, breathable construction specifically designed to promote airflow. While no knee pad is completely sweat-free, these prioritize moisture management to keep you as dry and comfortable as possible.

These are pro-level pads that utilize a combination of a durable skid plate and high-density foam. This setup provides significantly more impact dispersion than minimal trail sleeves, making them a better choice for aggressive terrain where crashes are more likely.

They are designed to be low-profile relative to their high level of protection. While they are more substantial than a simple sleeve, they are streamlined enough to fit comfortably under most mountain bike-specific riding pants without excessive bulk.
