I've dealt with these folks several times and found them top notch:

That said, most sporting goods store will have what you need (skate boarding, street hockey gear)

Having worked in construction for many years as a Carpenter I'd say if you can possibly stay way from the ones with the starps that go behind you knee do so. I much prefer the one piece ones that you have to slip on. They seem to me anyway to stay in place better. Just My .02

I dunno, I'd think twice about taking any course that required knee pads. :)

You know, immediately after she got news of being selected to work as a page at the White House, Monica Lewinsky was quoted by her friends as saying she would need to get a new set of knee pads! No kidding! That little tramp had plans!

well one can say she certainly "sucked" her way to the top!!

I suspect the carpeting in the "oval" office is well padded. probably the truth be never known, not the first gal that has been on her knees with "wild bill".

certainly not Hillary!!!

oh my can't believe I said all that!! Its that damn JFootin's fault, he made me do it, ban him not me3:D

Get 5.11 pants and some models have built in pockets for the pads.
Check here for everything you need. Great company. Retail sales in some states.

+1 for Walmart. Resist the urge to be TactiCool. Get the slip on spandex ones like volleyball pads. If it's a handgun course then you'll only need them for banging against the ground, not slamming in to steel doors or smashing windows etc. Don't waste your money.
