Do these run true to size?
Yes, these run true to size. Lunalae pole wear is designed with a compressive fit that supports movement and holds its shape through repeated use. If you prefer a less compressive fit, size up one.
How does this perform during pole training?
The slimline profile minimises bulk while the silicone grip surface provides secure contact with the pole. The design sits close to the skin to keep lines clean and elongated, making it popular with dancers who want protection without compromising the aesthetic of a move.
What should I know before wearing the Sticky Slim Look Knee Pad for the first time?
Ensure the knee pad sits centred on the knee with the silicone side facing outward. If adjustable, set the garter straps so the pad sits snugly without restricting circulation. The silicone grip activates on first contact with the pole, so no break-in is needed before training.
What is this made from and how do I care for it?
The fabric backing is soft and stretchy. The grip surface is silicone. Wipe the silicone side clean with a damp cloth after each session to remove skin oils and pole grip products that reduce tack over time. Hand wash the fabric backing in cold water and air dry flat. With regular cleaning the silicone maintains its grip and the pad holds up well through regular training.
What do customers say about this style?
Customers note that the slimline profile keeps lines clean without the bulk of traditional knee pads. The grip performance is praised as effective for pole and floorwork. The stretch fabric is highlighted as comfortable and secure through dynamic movement.
What else should I add to my pole bag alongside the Sticky Slim Look Knee Pad?
The Slim Look Knee Pad pairs cleanly with any Lunalae training set where a low-profile pad is preferred. It works well with the the Bellani Bottom or the Kehlani High Waist Bottom for a sleek studio look. Add Pole Freaks Clear Liquid Chalk (available in the Pole Accessories collection at Shoefreaks) for extra grip to complete the training kit.
