FAQ on SIZING and THICKNESS:

Q: Which size knee pad to choose? And how many?

Either size fits most all people. Whether you are tiny/scrawny/spindly 'little guy' or a tree trunk legged big kahuna either will usually fit. That being said, often those two extremes will choose the Mini and the Large respectively, but not always. Plenty of big people wear the Mini, and lots of smaller folks choose the Large. For everyone in between it's really more of a preference.

The knee pads are a wrap around design - thus they are adjustable. You can wrap them tight to your leg and cinch it down, therefore they will fit most sized legs. The size difference is mainly in rubber coverage and number of straps. People who choose the Mini enjoy its unobtrusive, minimal design, with its shorter rubber and faster 2-buckle closure. People who choose the Large enjoy its large rubber coverage, and very secure 3-buckle attachment to the leg.

As far as how many, often people buy one, sometimes one of each size, or a pair! It depends entirely on your use. For sport climbing two are typically bought as you don't always know all the kneebars on a particular climb until you get to it. Many boulderers are also now choosing 2 because more and more kneebars are being found on problems.

Q: Which THICKNESS of knee pad do I choose? (SLIM or CLASSIC?)

The SLIM knee pads are exactly like the Classic except it is made with thinner rubber and thinner neoprene. People who choose the SLIM enjoy the increased sensitivity they get with less bulk between you and the rock. They like to 'feel' the kneebar a little more while still depending on the same extremely sticky rubber we use on the Classic.
