knee guards that will fit under pants
After taking that spill the other night and having overalls and coveralls on, how fast I was going, and what it did to my knees I'm going to get a pair of knee guards to ride at night, but does anyone make any that will fit under blue-jeans? I just need some padding is all.

i got these from cyclegear:
they are nice because the there's a strap for the knee part in addition to straps around your shins. very comfy.
they are made to go under pants, but being a girl, i tend to wear skinny jeans, so i just wear them over my pants. i'm sure i look silly/power-ranger, but that's not really important.

I got the same knee guards that I ride with and I wear them under my jeans. It is quite comfortable. The jeans I wear are pretty typical jeans, but I do try to wear something that is wider so it is not as tight. Also, buy jeans that are a little longer than what you normally wear because the armor will make the jeans a little tighter. During stops, you jeans will tend to ride up. My 2 cents.oryx wrote:i got these from cyclegear:

Just posted a pair of Icons. I wore them on a couple 3- to 4-hour trips. They def boosted my confidence while riding. And they do fit under jeans. Obviously, not the super skinny jeans. But since I graduated, my commute is really short and I just haven't worn them.
