    A* Track Pants Pain

    After extended use in these leathers my knees begin to hurt because of the stitching/folding in that area. I tried finding a slim knee pad to wear under the suit, but the best ones restrict joint movement too much (uncomfortable keeping my legs folded back). Anyone have a suggestion or know of a knee pad that works?

    Yeah, the folding and stitching where the armor goes in is just a bit lumpy and after say 4+ hours of being in them they hurt and leave red marks on my knees.

    Sounds like a leather shower may be in order.

    I found both soft pading and hard cups in the knees of my 1 pc suit...the cups were digging into just above me knee to the point where they were leaving sore spots, I just took the knee cups out...not as protective, but i couldn't wear it otherwise

    I've broken them in pretty well. I need like a Dr. Scholls gel insert for my knee.
