Career Savers Carbon Fiber Knee Caps (Pair)

If you struggle with sore knees, Career Savers can literally save your career.  They effectively manage kneeling pain, allowing you to work and kneel comfortably, even if your knee is already sore!

Kneeling pain is caused by swelling in the knee joint. This swelling happens when soft tissues in the knee become injured. D’s Knees patented design allows you to kneel without compressing or impacting the soft tissues in the front of your knee, which are the primary causes of kneeling pain.

D’s Knees will be most beneficial to a person seeking to manage existing a knee condition.  They are especially helpful for people experiencing kneeling pain and stiff or sore knees resulting from kneeling, but everyone will appreciate the improved kneeling comfort and knee protection they offer. They are ideal for trades like construction workers, mechanics, service technicians, concrete workers, electricians, plumbers, etc.

Career Savers are hand made, designed and manufactured in Minnesota.

Fitting Instructions:

Please note that Career Savers fit differently than regular knee pads, so I highly recommend going through these simple steps the first time you try to wear them.  Career Saver knee caps are designed to be loose fitting for maximum comfort.  

1) Sit down, or crouch with your knee bent 90 degrees or more.

2) Adjust both straps so they are at the maximum length.

3) Hold the knee cap against the front of your knee, so the narrow end is down. The bottom part should always touch your shin.

4) Connect the bottom strap and shorten it until it to prevents the knee cap from slipping down your leg. DO NOT PULL THE STRAP TIGHT!

5) With the upper elastic strap still disconnected, stand up. The D’s Knees cap should stay in place on your leg. The top edge should just barely cover your knee cap.

6) If  they slip down your leg, shorten the lower strap in small increments until they stay in place.  If the top edge is sitting well above your knee cap, lengthen the strap to allow it to settle down until the top edge is about even with the top of your knee cap.

7) To test if they are positioned correctly, try to kneel. If your knee lands inside the cap, and the front edge of the cap is in contact with your knee, they are fitting correctly. If the cap sticks out in front of your knee, please lengthen the lower strap slightly and try again.  It may take a few tries and to get this dialed in.

8) Once the botttom strap is adjusted, connct the upper strap.  KEEP THE UPPER STRAP LOOSE! The bottom strap does all the work of holding up the knee caps. The top strap just prevent it from moving around too much when you walk.
