Review on 💪 Ultimate Protection: Venum 'Kontact' Lycra/Gel Knee Pads - Unmatched Quality and Comfort by Brent Gurney

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I've had an Asics Super Sleeve for over a year and am starting.

I've had my Asics Super Sleeve for over a year now and they're starting to wear out. Thought to try this. I made a mistake. Due to the cheap design, the Venum puts extra pressure on the patella and flexes behind the knee. The best knee pads, including Asics, have a separate oval shape, often a thinner, compressed piece that's sewn to the back, allowing the knee pads to flex and fold easily when the knee is fully flexed. The Venum is made from a single piece with a vertical seam at the back that adds volume right where you don't want it when you bend your knee. Oddly enough, the back of the Venum has oval faux stitching to make it look like a piece has been tucked in, but the stitches don't actually sew anything. Also, the Venum has few vents on the back to allow sweat to escape. This is a cheap overpriced product.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad but...
