Most soldiers with 2-12 INF I asked about knee protection preference fell into 2 camps: soft inserts in the ACU pants or Arc’teryx Kneecaps. There was actually a small third group of guys that shoved the Kneecaps into the ACU kneepad sleeves.
They don’t look like much, but that seems to be the attraction with the Kneecaps. They are very light, stay put and hold up to daily patrol abuse.
