being from oop north an all I class myself as a bit of hardy breed, however, I have learnt from the last few days of biking that my knee joints are not! So having looked at the prices of knee warmers, I was a bit put off by the cost. So out came the thermals and I hoped for the best. This has been better but not quite good enough.
I can, however, recommend the knee warmers from the Bettaware catalogue. They don't cut into you either. I have put em on over my thermals so they don't have a chance of slippage.
I have to warn you that they are not sexy in any shape way or form but my knees are lovely and warm and not aching.
Thought I would recommend.
A timely post RowanB, thankyou. Even though my pilly ride out on Sunday was lovely, my knees had set solid with the cold, so will have a look at these, and I don't care what they look like either as long as they do the job!.....have got to the age of comfort before fashion.
XK that really depends on how you warm knees up
Ladies (and gents) i will see if I still have the order form at home tonight and if I have I will let you have the code.
I've been using thermal knee warmers for a number of years now there brilliant they keep the knee warm which keeps it loose, apart from on the bike when its cold i also use them when Skiing and cycling obviously mine are comfy or i would not be able to cycling in them. The Magnetic knee supports are a different thing, they are to support the knee and strengthen a week joint, i also have some of these for Skiing
