TMC Tactical Elastic Band Strap Thigh Strap

Product Information

It does face a similar shortcoming in the fact that it does not have a leg retention system, but the rigid plastic at the top as well as the spaced out retention straps help stabilize the bag. Be forewarned, however, that the bag goes fairly low. I’m 5-foot-10, and the bottom of the pouch reaches almost to the top of my knee. A good dump pouch stows away neatly, attaches to your belt securely, and ideally does not flop around all over the place when deployed. These are all determined by retention. You'll want to note a few things before you go ahead and buy these knee pads. Because they’re made with an elastic material, the bands may be prone to stretching over time. We also read reports of the pads sliding down for some users.

There are tons of dump pouches out there; all with their little idiosyncrasies. It would be impossible to accurately divide and categorize them all, but in my market research, I have found that they largely can be divided into three types to best serve the consumer: low-profile, medium-sized, and wide load. Low-profileYou do want to keep in mind that their pull-on design might not accommodate all knee shapes, so how snugly they fit can depend on how big your knees are. There are only two sizes available: small/medium and large.

There is a reason you put items in a dump pouch. Whether you stow a water source, extra magazines, or sensitive items, the idea is to keep whatever it is inside. That is why closure is so important when it comes to dump pouches. If you don’t have some sort of closure system, you can probably just kiss whatever you put away goodbye. Note that the shell may get a little warm, as it’s made from plastic. The metal rivet hinges, which improve your range of motion, may also pinch at the knees.Gear gets dirty. Well, it should. Generally speaking, that is a byproduct of what it is designed for. Unless you are some kind of tactical paleontologist, you probably don’t want a pouch full of dirt and sand. This is why drainage is important. We designated the NoCry Professional Knee Pads for Work as our top choice because they offer comfort, durability, and motion range at a reasonable price point.

Some reports also indicate that the straps may not work for those with big legs, so personal modification may be necessary. With tasks such as planting and weeding, gardening can require lots of kneeling. Typically, knee support in the garden comes in the form of a kneeler pad, but you can also use knee pads so that you don’t have to carry around a kneeler whenever you work in a new spot. For keeping garden chores comfortable, we like the WorkPro Garden Knee Pads. These inexpensive knee pads combine both lightweight and sturdiness, featuring a tear- and abrasion-resistant 300D Oxford fabric with a soft EVA foam liner. Whether you’re working on soft grass or a gravel landscape, you can rest assured that they keep you comfortable.
