ABSTRACT:
A knee pad (16) for cushioning a knee of a person (18) wearing a pair of pants (20), when the person (18) is in a kneeling position. The knee pad (16) comprises a cushion member (22) being a flexible semi-cylindrical body section (24) having a flat outer surface contact area (26) with tapered sides (28) and an integral flexible quadrispherical cut back top section (30). A facility (32) is for attaching the cushion member (22) in a removable manner to a pants leg (34) of the pair of pants (20) at a knee area. When the person (18) goes into the kneeling position on a floor/ground (36), the cushion member (22) will better conform to the knee of the person (18). The flat outer surface contact area (26) will distribute weight more evenly over a wider surface area on the floor/ground (36).
