Fallschirmjäger Knee Pads

These Luftwaffe paratrooper knee pads are a faithful reproduction of the protective gear issued to German Fallschirmjäger during the Second World War. This wartime pattern, designed to be worn externally over trousers, reflects the practical requirements of airborne troops, who relied on knee protection during landings, field movement over rough terrain, and combat. As with original examples, they are both functional, densely packed and visually consistent with wartime variants.

Constructed from durable canvas, the pads feature internal padding to provide a soft barrier and protection when kneeling or operating on rough terrain. The elastic cross-strap system ensures a secure fit while allowing flexibility of movement, making them suitable for extended wear during events or field use.

An essential addition to any Fallschirmjäger impression, these knee pads help complete the overall look while maintaining a level of authenticity expected by reenactors and collectors alike.

Colours available: Field-grey, Blue-grey and late-war tan (khaki).

New improved model, launched in April 2026.
