Heavy duty protection.
Mountain biking has evolved considerably in recent years. There is new terrain, new challenging routes, and new styles of riding. To keep all cyclists' young at heart while also safe and protected, POC created the lightweight VPD Air Leg as an extra lightweight yet tough layer of protection.
The unique comfort pads have been preshaped to offer enhanced flexibility and freedom of movement, no need to break in another uncomfortable pair. Added silicon strips at the top and bottom of the pads ensure a precise and secure fit even through rough riding conditions. The pads are lightweight and, thanks to the perforated fabric, designed to increase airflow to the legs while also offering optimized ventilation and moisture control. Ideal for long days on the bike or when you want some padding but without any penalty.
For those riders who are looking for a minimal level of padding and reinforcement, but with highest levels of comfort, take the Poc VPD Air Leg out for a spin. With such incredible compression and ventilation, you'll wonder how you ever rode without them.
Features:
Preshaped low profile knee comfort pads
Reinforced fabric outside knee
Ventilated textile inside leg
Lightweight compression fabric for a secure and pressure free fit
Silicon strip at the top and bottom to secure in place
Perforated for optimized moisture and ventilation control

Great lightweight protection, but put on deliberately or risk tearing seams
Good fit. Not bulky. Wish the non-padded material were more meshlike for increased breathability. The seam has pulled out on one leg sleeve, the construction seems a bit suspect at the stress points of the seams. Need to put on in a deliberate "telescoping" manner don't try to pull on in one steady motion, but repetitively bunch-and-gather-then-extend. Not a deal-breaker, however. Good product overall. Happy with the purchase.

Comfortable and Lightweight Protection
When I decided to buy knee protection I didn't want something that looked beyond the relatively pedestrian singletrack rider that I am. Not doing crazy stuff on the trails, but every so often I push it too far and end up with a gravity check. Point being, these pads covered a good 85% of the damage that was likely to happen without, which is what I was looking for. They hardly feel like they are there most times, and rinse dry without losing shape. Good protection for the money.
