I wasn't sure what to expect put these turned out to be fantastic, so easy to put on and take off when you warm up. Probably should've got the size smaller as they do stretch during the day. Would very much recommend if cycling on colder days.
Great for biking to work at 5.30am when it's 2 degrees outside as keeps the old squash knees warm with minimal extra weight and then easy to throw in the backpack for the ride home in the afternoon when it's warmed up and not required. Feel a bit strange the first time you wear them but really comfortable when biking and stay up no problem. A great product as we've come to expect from Ground Effect!
Great product that works in keeping the knees toasty warm in sub-zero conditions as a base layer.They did not fall down and stayed in place even after hours on the bike. Highly recommend to others.
ordered size small (given that I recently ordered new witches britches and they were very tight), but perhaps not designed for my shapely pins! very tight around the thigh gripper (sausage leg effect) and pretty loose everywhere else. Also, longer than expected given the name Kneecaps. All in all, not a good fit on me.
Hi Janice. The difference between the Knee Caps and the Half Pipes is the Knee Caps don't cover the lower leg. You do need to hitch them well up the thigh, under your shorts to get them to sit in position. Hope this helps. Pedal on, Ernie
Amazingly warm and versatile. I ride everyday and the Ground Effect Knee Caps have become my new best friend in the cold winter months. They keep you warm and are super fast drying, when one has to contending with rain, sleet, and hail. I have also found them to be an additional source of warmth at work, when early morning starts require an additional layer without having to carry extra clothing. Thank you Ground Effect, perfect for riding, and will be taking these tramping as well.
