Test result preview
The LAUTERSCHUTZ professional knee pads offer an excellent solution for anyone who wants to effectively protect their knees during physical work or sporting activities. These knee pads are equipped with a gel cushion that ensures a high level of comfort and significantly reduces the pressure on the knees when kneeling or working on hard floors. They are available in three different fits, allowing them to be optimally adapted to individual leg shapes. The double industrial Velcro fasten er also ensures a secure fit and prevents the knee pads from slipping. The durability of the product and its non-slip properties are further advantages, as they are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. One disadvantage, however, is that slight shifts can occur during intensive movement, which can slightly impair stability. Nevertheless, the good grip and wearing comfort are maintained even during longer periods of use.
Advantages
- High-quality gel cushions
- Durable and robust
- Suitable for indoor & outdoor use
- Double adjustable Velcro fastener
- Non-slip on all floors
Disadvantages
- Small printed instructions for use

In the practical test, the fit of the LAUTERSCHUTZ Profi knee pads was impressive thanks to their versatility and high level of comfort. The knee pads adapt very well to the shape of the leg, although in some cases there were some isolated instances of loss of comfort when worn for long periods. The slip resistance on various floor coverings is remarkable, as the knee pads adhered excellently to all surfaces tested and slipping was prevented. During intensive movement, we noticed slight shifts, but these only had a minimal impact on stability. The adaptability to different leg shapes is very good, making the knee pads suitable for a wide target group. Particularly noteworthy is the effortless donning and doffing process, which offers a high level of user-friendliness and makes the product a good choice for everyday use.
