Alpinestars Paragon Plus Knee Protector Black

Who's it for? Anyone wanting to make sure they don't have to pick bits of gravel out of their knees.

Protection style: Firm, yet flexible guard for great impact protection, but reasonably unrestricted movement.

Materials: Elastic, mesh, and rip-stop materials strategically placed to give abrasion resistance, mixed with comfort and breathability.

Closure: To keep them lightweight, these are a slip on sleeve style pad.

Length: These cover from mid-thigh to upper calf, with the protector pad covering from just above the knee to partway down the shin.

Protection level: Lightweight construction, but mid-level protection.

Removable padding: No, the pad cannot be removed from its sleeve for washing. However, you can wash the guards with the pad inside.

Pros: Great comfort and weight, with protection that hits above it's class.

Cons: Lack of retention straps can cause some slippage if fit isn't perfect. 

Note: Please take care as to not pull the knee pads up your leg from the top of the pads as you would a pair of socks. The material is not designed for this and may cause tears. Damage to the knee pads of this nature may not be covered by the manufacturer warranty. We recommend pulling up knee pads from the top and bottom of the pad with care, in a way that avoids stretching the mesh or damaging the stitching.
