Imlay Canyoneering Knee & Elbow Pads

Imlay Canyoneering Knee & Elbow Pads

from $40.00

Knee and Elbow pads designed just for Colorado Plateau canyoneering. Made with 3mm neoprene with a stretchy polyester knit - “Powertex” - that is reasonably durable. The design features a minimum of stitching, and the stitching is covered with Shoe Goo so it does not abrade off. Just enough stitching to give them shape. These pads are longer than, say, volleyball pads, because WE do not get to adjust our pads after every point; thus these pads do a better job of staying in place.

Useful for keeping the skin on your knees and elbows intact when scuffling through canyons. Also useful when wearing a wetsuit, to delay the point at which your wettie becomes holy.

We (currently) make them in three sizes: Medium, Large and Extra Large. New for summer 2024, so let me know how they fit. Size Chart? I have no idea what to measure - so… are you kinda small to medium; pretty much median adult male; or more Mongo-ish, but not as big as Mongo?

Care and Feeding: I throw mine in with the wash after each trip. Seems to work fine.

You could patch gobis and holes with Shoe Goo, but don’t use too much because it reduces the stretch.
