Hi, I'm looking for some knee pad recommendations by those of you who are wearing them continuously for long periods. I've been using a pair of cheap Vitrex pads for some time now and although they do the job in terms of being cushioning to kneel on, the big problem is that the rear velcro...

No drop of water this morning and no signs of moisture around the back nut so it looks like that extra 1/2 turn did the trick :-)
