Ultimate Latte Nude Pole Dance Knee Pads
Why these knee pads are worth it
We have used D3O® material for the padding which is like a foam but tougher and longer lasting. Upon impact, the foam hardens to protect you from the point of impact by distributing the force throughout the rest of the material and quickly softens up again. Current knee pads on the market use EVA foam (generally deflates quite quickly) or gel (no impact protection).
The knee pad cover is made from SuperFabric®, an abrasion and cut resistant technical fabric. SuperFabric® is created with a base fabric overlaid with tiny hard guard plates organised in a specific and intentional pattern. Due to the spacing, the pattern allows a degree of flexibility and breathability, however, is small enough to keep most sharp objects from penetrating. Current knee pads on the market use s stretchy elastane or knitted fabric - in which both are prone to tearing over time when subject to abrasion against dance floorboards.
No other dance or volleyball knee pad currently offers this level of protection or durability and we're so proud to deliver something innovative to our pole and dance industry.
- Patented D3O® padding that is soft in is natural state and hardens upon impact to protect your knees
- Patented SuperFabric® outer fabric covering the padding for durability and abrasion resistance against tough floorboards
- The surface area of the padding is carefully calculated for each side to provide coverage for both the knee cap and the top of your shin
- Extended shin bone coverage
- The width of the padding is wider than your standard** knee pad to cater to floorwork that requires twerking with the inside of your knees
- The top inner circumference of the knee pad contains a silicone strip to minimise slipping and movement during training
- Firm 2cm wide elastic placed on the top inside circumference to also minimise slipping (please note we cannot 100% guarantee non slip but these features certainly help)
- Large cut out placed at the back to aid pole tricks that require skin contact
- Sleeve is made with a thick nylon elastane fabric for breathability and the ability to dry quickly
- Sleek, minimal and low profile design
- The padding is split into three sections to better contour to the shape of your knee
- Available in size XS, S, M and L
- The length of the knee pad ranges from 20.5cm to 23.5cm. It increases by 1cm for each size
- We strongly recommend purchasing our Boost+ Protection Additional Padding if you have sensitive knees, are prone to bruising or wish to repetitively train high impact tricks. Watch this video here to determine if you need it.
**We based this on existing dance and pole dance knee pads currently on the market.
How to choose your size?
Everyone is generally able to fit into two sizes due to the fabric we have chosen.
- Firstly, measure 6cm above your knee cap and then wrap the tape measurement around your lower thigh to work out your ‘lower thigh circumference’
- Match with our size chart to find your perfect size
| SIZE |
LOWER THIGH CIRCUMFERENCE (CM) |
LOWER THIGH CIRCUMFERENCE (INCHES) |
| XS | 34 – 39 | 13.4 – 15.3 |
| S | 40 – 45 | 15.7 – 17.7 |
| M | 46 – 51 | 18.1 – 20.1 |
| L | 52 – 57 | 20.5 – 22.4 |
What if I’m in between sizes?
We have tailored a guide below based on feedback gather since the launch of the black knee pads back in March 2023 however, the final decision will come down to your personal preference and your usage requirements.
Choose the SMALLER size if:
- You don’t mind a tight fit when it comes to protective gear, clothing, pole wear etc
- You are training kips, drops and flips on a regular basis, and you do not want to risk the knee pad slipping out of place at the wrong time
- You generally use the knee pad for hard impact training
Choose the LARGER size if:
- You only do choreography classes, floorwork classes or heels dance classes that don’t require high impact tricks
- You do not like the feeling of being ‘constricted’, wearing tight fitted items or if you have hypersensitivity issues
- If your calf muscle is larger than average
How should they fit?
- DO NOT remove the tags until you are confident with your size. We recommend wearing the knee pad for at least 20 mins on one leg to first gauge comfort and whether you have any hypersensitivity issues to tightness
- The knee pad should feel firm and secure when sliding along the floor
- They may feel very ‘tight’ at first however, you will need to ‘break’ into them as they will mould to the shape of your knee with at least 15-20 wears
- In a standing position, bend your knees until they touch the ground (and the back of your thigh touches your calf) a few times. If you feel that your blood circulation is cutting off or if it is severely uncomfortable, please size up.

- You may feel some stitches 'popping' when you first put them on but please don't be alarmed as they are the 'first line of stitching' that is sewn down before we add in the main line of stitching. There should be no visible seams coming undone but if you do see any, just reach out to us.

We're expensive because we've gained exclusive access to technology no other dance knee pad brand has.
We have set the bar for what quality and protection means in our pole and dance industy.

FROM THE FOUNDER
Hi, I'm Tatiana! I've been a pole dancing since 2013 (12 years) and I'm a lover of floorwork, basework, splits, kips, flips and drops.
I've been through my fair share of knee pads and I knew I could design something that was better than these EVA or gel knee pads on the market that only lasted a few months.
Check out my video below and you will understand why these knee pads are a personal love letter to your/our knees.
BURSITIS? SENSITIVE KNEES? SURGERY?
don't wait until it's too late
"I've danced for up to 3-ish hours without a single bruise coming up the next day."
"I have developed bursitis on both knees and I haven't had a single flare up since I purchased these knee pads."
"These are the ONLY knee pads that don't aggravate my nerve issues."
"I had a burst Baker's Cyst in my knee and I can now dance pain free in these knee pads."
"After my surgery, I did not think I could do the things I do now"
