Knee Guards

One of the first pieces of protective gear that mx riders look for after finding the right helmet, goggles and boots is a good pair of knee protectors for cross / enduro motorcycles.

Whether it's your first time behind the wheel or you're a rider with more than a decade of experience, you'll want to protect yourself with a good set of motocross knee protectors. The reason enduro riders start looking for knee protection early on is that, in addition to the feet and ankles, the knees and shins are the next part of the body closest to the ground. There is a sensitive area around the kneecap that is a kind of protective barricade for the knee joint, which is a key part of the body. A wide range of knee pads and shin guards are available, and riders interested in enduro, motocross are sure to find something to suit their needs.

Knee protectors are manufactured by many popular brands ( ACERBIS , FOX , LEATT , POD , POLISPORT knee protectors) that you will find in our offer.

What kind of cross knee protectors to choose?

There are several types of knee protectors available on the market. They are designed to protect against impact, knee and shin abrasions. However, knee pads do not provide a high level of protection against twisting, jerking or overstretching of the knee. 

Normally, enduro knee protectors are made of hard material and foam padding. Nowadays, 3DF knee protectors have been introduced, which consist of a material that is soft during use and automatically hardens upon impact. 

The motorcycle knee protectors are available in two design versions. The basic version of knee protectors has no hinge. The better enduro knee protectors are equipped with additional hinges, which increase comfort, allow a better grip on the motorcycle and make it easier to get on the motorcycle.

How to choose knee protectors?

To measure knee protectors, take your motorcycle boots. You'll check if the protector goes well into your motorcycle boot and stays well on your knee. Also consider that knee protectors require more space in cross or enduro pants.
