Overall, the knee pads are large, quite well made, as is typical for classic Alta. They fulfill their function, but for me personally they are a bit too bulky. They hold well and do not slip off.
Knee pads offering a combination of exceptional comfort and advanced knee protection. Produced by the renowned American company Alta Industries.
The AltaContour AltaLok model features three independently functioning sections, ensuring the knee pads remain securely positioned and deliver superior wearing comfort. A flexible shell effectively shields the knees from impact, while the cushioned area is reinforced with highly resilient Cordura fabric.
The AltaLok mechanism, utilizing unique rotating hooks alongside two adjustable straps, facilitates effortless application and removal of the knee pads. Strategically spaced straps stop the pads from shifting or rolling, enhancing overall comfort.

MultiCam Camouflage
MultiCam represents an advanced camouflage design, engineered in 2002 by the US-based Crye Precision in collaboration with the United States Army Soldier Systems Center (Natick Labs) under the Objective Force Warrior initiative. The primary objective was to craft a highly adaptable camouflage pattern, offering effective concealment across diverse terrains and shifting environmental scenarios. The MultiCam design integrates a palette of seven distinct colors, forming smooth gradients that transition between greens, browns, and beiges. This composition enables the pattern to blend seamlessly with its surroundings—adopting green hues in woodland settings and shifting to browns and beiges in arid or desert landscapes; it delivers optimum performance in Central and Eastern Europe during autumn or amid dried vegetation. MultiCam has earned international acclaim and is standard issue for a wide range of military forces and special operations groups. In 2010, the US Army officially selected this camouflage for deployed personnel in Afghanistan, replacing the previous Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP). Availability to civilian consumers has further increased its popularity among military enthusiasts and airsoft players.

For years I have used only ALTA knee pads. Even after hours of field work, they do not cause discomfort. The knee pads do not shift after being put on and properly adjusted. High quality product.

I tested the product in all weather conditions. Very comfortable. It is unrivaled compared to the weaker multicam versions I have in stock. It does not restrict movement during maneuvers. It perfectly protects the knee joints from injuries, as well as from the hardness/irregularities of the ground in the kneeling position. The material withstands washing well, and the plastic is resistant to deep scratches. I recommend it.
