The lower strap should be the one that really holds the pad in position, with the upper strap being slightly looser.
The reason being that there is generally much more variation in the profile of your thigh when flexing your leg than there is in your calf. Therefore a snug fit in one position is far more likely to become restricting when in another (with the leg bent for example). |
Never even thought of this!!

No and as my Ma is sh*t hot at patchwork I asked her if she could put some in but she said she couldn't easily without a machine which would show up stitching on the front

I am going to get leather trousers at some point but cant afford the ones I am looking at just now, I have textiles but I bought 2 pairs of Icon jeans in the states and they go well with my Icon leather jacket, I am a victim of fashion!
