The NoCry Professional Gel Knee Pads have been indispensable during my DIY projects around the house.What stands out most is their comfort and durability. The soft foam and gel cushioning provide excellent support, even during prolonged kneeling sessions. The adjustable straps ensure a snug fit without feeling too tight, which is crucial for preventing discomfort or slipping during use.I appreciate the heavy-duty cap and military-grade rivets, which enhance the pads' durability. They withstand rough surfaces and provide reliable protection against impacts and abrasions, making them ideal for various tasks from flooring installations to gardening.One minor downside is that they can be a bit bulky, which might take some getting used to, especially if you're accustomed to lighter knee pads. However, the trade-off in protection and comfort more than makes up for this slight inconvenience.In conclusion, the NoCry Knee Pads have exceeded my expectations. They combine comfort, durability, and practicality, making them an essential tool for anyone tackling DIY projects that involve kneeling.

If you do any kind of work on your hands and knees, these are worth buying. The straps clip on with ease and adjustability is great. Overall an outstanding protection product and far better than my previous knee pads. I like that once these are on, they stay put. If they do move, there is a handy loop on the top that you can pull to get the pads back in the perfect position. Highly recommended.

I was injured at my job. Following that, I have had a great deal of difficulty / pain when bending (etc.).I purchased the NoCry Knee Guard Pro Knee Pads; thinking that kneeling down may be a better alternative to bending. Unfortunately, that did not prove to be the case. As it was actually much more difficult / painful having to get down and then back up; than what it had been when just bending down.With regard to the actual knee pads; they seemed to be very well made, they were quite comfortable to wear, provided ample padding for my knees and looked nice (if that is of any concern). My one, very minor, quibble with the product would be that they did have to be readjusted quite a bit. Though, just for the record, this was really not much of a bother; when they would slide around it was, basically, nothing to move them back in place.When I contacted NoCry regarding this matter; they responded promptly, seemed to be genuinely concerned and very graciously provided me with a refund on the item.So, even though the knee pads did not work for me, in my particular circumstance, for all of the reasons stated; I am very happy to give NoCry a five-star review. I will also definitely recommend both the product and the company to my friends and family, going forward.

Like to thank the company for my new life because without I have to pay people to do painting and now I can work in the vegetable garden again come spring. I got on my porch roof and painted the house. No pain yeah!

Ordered a set of these due to being on my knees a lot for work on sheet metal, I-beams, and concrete. Padding is nice, pads are comfortable, and the straps don’t dig in unless you tighten them too much. Had to replace a set and the customer support was incredible.

I have tried quite a few different brands of knee pads, these are my favorite. They are comfortable to wear, even all day like I do. The clip to latch them on is my favorite part. It is very easy to put on and just as easy to take off, unlike some brands that are very difficult to remove. Highly recommend these knee pads.

NoCry Professional Gel Knee Pads for Work with Soft Foam and Gel Cushion — Heavy Duty Cap, Adjustable Straps & Military Grade Rivets — Perfect Construction Knee Pads for Men or Knee Pads for WomenPurchased the original version because the newer version seemed like it had too much color in it that it would make it stand out when wearing so I went for the original "all black" version. They are pretty thin making it portable and doesn't take up too much room in a duffle bag. The straps on my left knee seem like they are jamming into my knee and it's uncomfortable. I had to adjust it several times and I can't seem to get it right. The kneepads are stable enough in the belly of a Boeing 737 Max and 757; general protection and on asphalt/pavement. So far so good, usage on the ramp. Recommended as a replacement pair of kneepads or if you need kneepads, this is the best no frills pads w/o thigh support.

The quality looks ok. The description doesn’t show the inside of the knee pads. I work wearing shorts most of the time and there is two large seams on the inside. They dig into my knees and are uncomfortable.

So I'm a ~170lbs woman, I'm 5'5", with normal knees - I guess, and no matter how tight I made these straps, they kept loosening. It's very annoying. They are comfortable, but wow the slipping is so unfortunate. I'm installing hardwood flooring. My last pair, the Rexbetis, which I've had since 2018, held up well, but the Velcro no longer fastened them. But, I think what those old pair had which these could REALLY USE, is that extra piece going across the top, above the knee. I THINK, that would make these perfect and keep them from falling, I think. Anyway, as is, I'm not impressed. I would not buy another pair, and would not recommend them to anyone.

Update: NoCry reached out to me after seeing my review and has been extremely helpful in resolving the issue and immediately sent me a replacement! It’s great to see a vendor who cares about their product and are willing to take care of the consumer. Buy with confidence. Also, i have put the original pads through some heavy use kneeling on rocks(not a rock here and there, but landscaped rock trim-see pics)as I’ve been digging holes and planting trees and bushes. They’ve held up extremely well and my knees feel great! Been doing yard work and upgrades this season, and destroying my knees while working on the rock that perimeters our yard. Decided to give these pads a try and prolong my usefulness to my wife’s long list of to-do’s haha. The bad-Out of the box i was disappointed, one of the pull straps for releasing the Velcro was not stiched correctly and fell off with a gentle touch, clearly a miss on quality control. This gave me concerns about reliability and longevity from the start. The good-these go on easily and stay put, they are very comfortable and i don’t feel anything from the rocks I’m kneeling on-see pics. I am about 4 hours into using these and am pleased, so far they serve their purpose well but it remains to be seen on how long they last. I will add an additional star if they don’t fall apart after a few more days of work.

these were by far the best knee pads i have ever owned, they stay in place all day and are extremely comfortable and durable will buy them again if i ever have too.

Read More

The straps are much more comfortable than the rubber straps and because of the hinged design they seem to stay up better than any others I have worn. It has been a few months now and I have used them on a half dozen flooring jobs. The hard plastic outer layer is definitely showing wear and tear and a crack is developing in the top of one of them but they have performed well. The only negative I have is that the cushions are not as soft as my previous gel pads so my knees end up sore after a couple days of heavy use.

I am a concrete contractor. These knee pads are awesome. I had used the troxell pads and liked them but they slide around and dont last long. These No Cry pads are so comfortable and durable. The neoprene straps dont hurt the back of my legs and they rarely slip out of position. 5 stars.

I don't normally leave reviews, but this one definitely warranted it. The knee pads are super comfortable and work well. The one issue I had is after a couple of times using them I had a seam start to split.I contacted the customer service to see if there was a way to warranty the knee pads. I will say I had a reply back in a couple of hours and then they had a new pair shipped out the next day. The customer service experience was top notch and there was very little in the way of hoops to jump through.I will definitely be using them for any future knee pads and recommend them to anyone I talk to that is looking for good solid knee pads with a solid company.

I work construction and for the price I wish these would have held up longer. Only lasted about 2 months but they are comfortable at least. Not worth the price when I can pay less for other products that will last as long

This things sure do help keep my knees from getting skint up on the job I'm a big guy and these things fit great and the straps are snug. They tend to roll a little becuase of the hardtop but it's a minor inconvenience the ankle stop really does give you that extra support. Very good quality can drop stright from My knees to the ground to get under house to lag or drop axles.

a little harder to put on but once on they don't slip at all. I lay tile for a living and they are working perfectly. ordering another set for my apprentice.

Same as the picture even more better in person, the Velcro are super strong, the silicone part for the strap over the knee is genius ! I didn’t tried yet at work, but will be for sure better then nothing like before, the only thing I could say is the stitching got me worried but I’ve burn the extra tread’s off, and it look perfect and not weakened. I ordered another pair for my friend ! 💯 would definitely recommend this product !

Would definitely recommend!!! Very nice and very comfortable!

The velcro bands are soft and wide. Thinner bands leave marks and pinch, so these were a nice feature.The plastic shell felt flimsy at first, but it is not. It definitely does the job.Fantastic knee pads for a good price

Buying Guide

When gardening, it is important to have a supportive pair of knee pads to provide a barrier between your knees and the ground to take the pressure off of your joints. Knee pads are made from a combination of foam, gel and rubber materials. The foam layer of the knee pad works with the gel layer to provide both cushioning and support for your knees while the rubber surface on the outer layer resists tears and adds durability. Since gardening and water go together often, you will want your knee pads to have a non-slip, contoured front to avoid any injury from the pad slipping on wet surfaces. Making sure you choose the right size of knee pads will make a difference in how comfortable they are as well. You will want to choose a size that fits snugly around your knees without being too tight. Strap-on knee pads are easily adjustable so that you can personalize your fit while slip-on knee pads are much easier to take on and off but are not adjustable, and therefore, may not provide as much support. Gardening knee pads range in price from around $10 to $100. If you garden sparingly but still require knee protection, you can get a pair of basic knee pads for around $10. If you garden often or already experience pain due to a knee condition, spending more for a higher quality pair would be worth the cost. Keep in mind your investment can eliminate unnecessary pain and fatigue while gardening, so make sure you get knee pads with the highest level of comfort and safety you can find within your budget.
