How to Make Wrestling Kneepads

So instead of paying 90 bucks plus postage I decided to buy a sewing machine and learn how to make my own kneepads.
Now you too can learn to how to make kneepads or if you'd rather not, order a custom set from me, I will be massively undercutting highspots by like 50%.

Just for everyone's information I've made some changes to how I make kneepads since this video and I will at some point between now and the end of the universe update it

Would you do a video on making knee pad covers Please.

@@ajmacintyre they are outside my current skillet, also I don't like covers, they always move

Mullets are a-ok though

[@S.M.Jean-Mahmoud_Ier]

I guess it's just two rectangles of spandex sewn together, with a couple elastics on top & bottom

Can you do one on making knee pad covers for the trace Adams knee pads. Please?

Thank You!!!!

Some point between now and the end of time I'll do a kickpad one too

@@GentlemansCombatives are you using the same size template for the foam that use use on the fabric or are you scaling it down a bit?

[@GentlemansCombatives]

@@doomw2 scaled down by like 1cm on each side

Please do one on making knee pad covers 🙏🏽

[@GentlemansCombatives]

I actually don't like kneepad covers, they come loose and just awkwardly look like a neon sock falling off the inevitable mismatched trace kneepad underneath. I understand their utility but I just prefer to have kneepads made to match my gear

@@GentlemansCombatives I dig it

[@kelsey9182]

What's the thickness of the foam?

[@GentlemansCombatives]

This right here is 10mm Eva80 foam , currently I'm using 20mm eva45 and am finding it much more comfortable

[@kelsey9182]

@@GentlemansCombatives thanks for the quick response. Do you use heat to help shape the pad at all?

[@GentlemansCombatives]

@@kelsey9182 nup, i do on kickpads however as the dense thick foam needs help to conform to the leg

[@arnieherrera3935]

Do you sell the pattern for the knee pads?

[@GentlemansCombatives]

If you send me an email to the one listed at the end of the video, we can work something out
