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 silicone grip side grips the pole during tricks, climbs and floorwork, while the fabric side sits comfortably against the skin. The adjustable garter straps keep the pad in position through dynamic movement without sliding.
What should I know before wearing the Sticky Silicone Garter 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 consistently highlight the grip performance and the stylish garter aesthetic as the two main positives. The adjustable straps are praised for keeping the pad securely in place through dynamic movement. The silicone grip is noted as effective for both pole contact and floorwork.
What else should I add to my pole bag alongside the Sticky Silicone Garter Knee Pad?
The Sticky Silicone Garter Knee Pad pairs naturally with the Lure You High Waisted Garter Shorts or the Lure You Low Waist Garter Shorts for a cohesive garter-forward training set. Any Lunalae top completes the look. For extra grip during training, add Pole Freaks Clear Liquid Chalk (available in the Pole Accessories collection at Shoefreaks).
