7 iDP Sam Hill Knee Pad

These are designed for gravity-focused riding but are surprisingly capable for all-day use. Because they use a lightweight compression fit and a breathable mesh back, they won't feel overly restrictive during long climbs or transitions.

The pads rely on a compression-fit design paired with internal silicone grippers. This combination creates a secure, tacky hold against your skin that prevents the pads from sliding down, even when you're sweating.

CE Level 2 is a high standard for impact protection. It means these pads have been tested to absorb significantly more energy during an impact compared to Level 1 pads, offering a higher level of safety for aggressive trail riding.

Yes. Their low-profile, pre-curved shape is specifically designed to fit comfortably under most mountain bike pants without creating excessive bulk or restricting your movement.

While the pads are durable, we recommend hand washing them in cool water with mild soap and air drying. This preserves the elasticity of the compression fabric and the integrity of the silicone grippers better than a machine cycle.

Since these are a compression-fit pad, getting the right size is critical for both comfort and safety. Measure the circumference of your thigh about 15cm above your kneecap and compare that to the manufacturer's size chart to ensure a snug, secure fit.
