Knee protection

Choose the right kneepads for handball

When it comes to handball, kneepads are not a luxury but a vital part of your gear. Your knees take a lot of punishment with every attack, fall or sudden turn. Quality kneepads with good shock absorption help cushion the impact and protect you from common injuries such as bruises or even a torn meniscus. Comfort and flexibility are just as important, so you can move freely without compromising your performance.

Kneepads come in various sizes and fits. Some models fit snugly and provide maximum support, while others offer more freedom of movement. When choosing kneepads, pay close attention to how well they fit your knee and whether they stay in place during intense play. The right size not only improves comfort but also ensures that protection stays exactly where it is needed.

Compare the most popular kneepad brands

We offer kneepads from brands like McDavid and Rehband, both known for their handball-specific designs. McDavid, for instance, offers a variety of models that combine protection with freedom of movement. Rehband is especially known for its solid support and durable materials that provide long-lasting protection, even under heavy use.

Prices vary depending on the brand and type. There are basic kneepads that are very affordable, as well as premium models with advanced technology for added stability and durability. Which one is right for you depends on how often you play and the level of protection you need. With normal use and proper care, most kneepads will last a full season or even longer.

Choose kneepads with optimal comfort

Comfort plays a big role in how long you continue to enjoy playing with kneepads. Many models use foam padding that molds to the shape of your knee, offering a soft landing and reducing pressure on the joint. Other kneepads are made from breathable materials that wick away sweat and prevent irritation, even during long matches or training sessions.

A good fit gives you the mobility you need on the court. Ergonomically designed models follow the natural shape of your knee and fit closely without pinching. This eliminates issues like hard edges or sliding protection, helping you stay focused during the game.

Prevent knee injuries with the right protection

Handball puts a lot of strain on your knees. Every jump, landing or twist carries some risk, especially when playing often on hard surfaces. Kneepads help distribute impact and reduce the chances of being sidelined by an unexpected fall. They offer cushioning and support exactly where it is most needed.

To get the most out of your kneepads, it is important to take good care of them. Air them out after each use and wash them occasionally following the care instructions to prevent odor and wear. This helps maintain their fit and ensures ongoing protection.
