Kempa knee pads

Kempa kneepads for optimal handball protection

During play, the knee joint takes a lot of impact. Kempa kneepads are specially designed for handball players who need reliable protection without sacrificing freedom of movement. Each model is tailored to the intensity of this explosive sport, with a focus on shock absorption, ventilation, and wearing comfort. The material fits snugly against the skin, stays securely in place during quick movements, and offers enough flexibility to perform any action with ease.

Kempa has been a specialist in handball gear for years, and it shows in the details. The kneepads are designed for athletes of all levels and are suitable for both youth and adults. Thanks to smart cushioning zones at the front of the knee, you are well protected against impacts when falling or contacting the floor. Even during intense training or matches, these protectors offer greater confidence and reduce the risk of injury.

Choosing the right Kempa kneepad

Every player has different needs, which requires tailored advice. When selecting the right Kempa kneepad, it is important to consider how often and how intensely you play. If you play several times a week, a kneepad with extra foam padding and breathable material is recommended for lasting comfort. For occasional use or training, a more streamlined model is often sufficient.

Your position on the court and playing style also matter. If you frequently engage in duels or switch gears in defensive actions, it's useful to choose a model with thicker padding and extra grip on the inside. Lighter protectors are better for players who rely on speed and agility. Each model in the Kempa lineup has its own balance of protection, freedom of movement, and ventilation.

Sizing advice for a perfect fit

A well-fitting kneepad stays firmly in place and prevents irritation or shifting during play. To find the right size, measure the circumference of your leg just above and just below the knee. Compare these measurements with the size chart on the product pages to quickly determine the right fit. Make sure the kneepad is tight enough without cutting off circulation.

The kneepad should move smoothly with your legs without sagging or slipping during jumps or slides. Always try bending both knees fully to test how well the model fits. Choosing the right size not only increases comfort but also extends the durability of the product.

Care tips for long-lasting use

Kempa kneepads stay in better shape longer when properly cared for. After a training session or match, always let them air dry completely and store them in a dry place. Avoid the dryer, as high temperatures can damage the elasticity and shape. Wash them at a low temperature, no higher than 30 degrees, using a mild detergent. You can place them in a laundry bag to protect the fabric from rubbing against other garments.

Avoid using fabric softener or harsh cleaning agents, as these can damage the material and reduce the effectiveness of the shock-absorbing sections. Periodically check that the seams and stitches are still intact. It's best to address small damages early to prevent further wear and maintain optimal protection.
