The Work Trouser and Kneepad System to Fit Your Job
It ’ s said that hardworking craftsmen and women put more pressure on their knees than many top athletes . That ’ s why the risk of knee injuries is far higher among trade professionals and manual workers than other occupations . 1
One of the best ways to avoid knee problems is to wear Snickers Workwear Trousers with their innovative knee protection – Knee- Guard™ - a world-leading , fully certified , trademarked system .
Snickers Workwear has 86 different types of Work trousers in multiple sizes to suit a host different trades and jobs on site - plus 8 different types of Kneepads . Together they deliver hundreds of Work Trouser and Kneepad combinations to effectively deal with different types of knee impacts ; the amount of time working on knees ; and individual needs for personal protection .
The unique design features of both the Work Trousers and Kneepads deliver flexibility when you walk , yet they close around your knees when you kneel down – to prevent your knees from sliding off the kneepad when moving around on the floor .
