Why are your knee pads falling off? I've had the same cheap pair for 15 years and they work fine, they very rarely fall off.

Knee pads - quality doesn't really matter on them (up front) - the fit & feel is what counts the most
Some people work better with cheap foam single strap ones, while others like the hard poly ones with two straps
I would suggest just going to a store, trying on a pair & then kneel down a few times, if they stay put, fit & feel great - grab them

Well I've got good news and bad news.
The good news is that I have a cartalidge deficiency in my right knee and I can tile floors for 5 days strait with these puppies:

the bad news is that you will be addicted and the gel pads are $$$ and don't last as long as you would like.
