I spent a lot of time reading about knee pads. I have a kitchen, laundry room, and bathroom to tile. I am a DIY type and have tiled in the past. This led me to wanting knee pads that made it easy to move around on my knees. I didn't want knee pads with two straps. The one on the thigh just gets in the way. I wanted something that I could get up and down in, clomp around on, and in general use to work.<br /><br />I picked the Tough Built based on shape, reviews, and budget. I just wanted knee pads. These seemed a perfect fit.<br /><br />I got them. They are a tough narrow at the outer edges but it wasn't uncomfortable. The straps velcro with plenty of room behind my calf. They sit high enough not to bother my calf and stayed in place. The hard plate but well padded knee made dropping down on them easy and clomping around a joy. I was ready to give them five stars.<br /><br />Then the strap broke the third time I wore them. The strap broke inside of the pad. If you look at the image, teh strap padded into the hard, exterior plastic plate and through. It frayed and broke from what I guess is pressure. However, this happened on the third day of using them with a total of eight hours of use.
