Trousers with soft knee pads that don't have a 10+ pockets?
I'm trying to find a simple pair of durable trousers that have either built in soft squishy foam padding arounds the knee cap and just below the knee cap, but every pair I look at are like full scale tradesman cargo work trousers that have like 10 pockets.
I just want a basic pair of trousers with the normal 2 pockets but just with padded knees, or insert slots for my own pads.

What do you want the trousers for?

- 2 x Front Hip, 1 x Free Swing Thigh, 1 x Phone, 2 x Back & 2 x Knee Pad Pockets
that's 8 pockets… I know I said 10+ but 8 is too many.
Pockets add weight and layers which I don't want.

Unstich the ones you don't want?

This.
You could buy the strap-on type of gel pads and add them to your trouser of choice

but that's going to look pretty silly if it's just for the Easter Sunday church service kneeling bits.

Interesting:
- 2 x Front Hip - same as any trousers
- 1 x Free Swing Thigh, - Hammer loop? Weight is in the hammer not the loop
- 1 x Phone - Very limited potential extra weight. Where would you keep your phone?
- 2 x Back - same as any jeans.
- 2 x Knee Pad Pockets - Necessary for the pads. How heavy are the pads?
Layers are required to provide the void for the pads to slot into but hey a closed mind is a closed mind.

I suspect these are almost exactly what you're after, but alas, they don't seem to be made now.

The OP could do that with the knee pads under the trousers, which will work if they're suitably loose.
