Sorry I don't have a picture but I designed a pair of old jeans with large pockets sewn on the exterior at and below knee level. After reading how some folks get circulation problems from knee pad straps I thought just get rid of the strap. Sister in law is a great seamstress and did the sewing. At first I cut up an old hunters seat for padding but it was too thick and rode up as I knelt. Then I tried a couple of computer mouse pads and they work perfectly as they are still good padding but are much more flexible. Hope this helps some of my fellow sore knee detectorists! :occasion14:

Sounds like a great idea, but I still use my 'strap on' knee pads...I don't have to wash my jeans after use.
