Leatt

Knee Guard 6.0 Evo

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I rely on the 6.0 Evo for rides where I need real protection but don’t want a bulky DH-style guard. The segmented sliders move naturally and handle slides really well, and the ventilation helps on long climbs. It’s one of the best blends of mobility and impact performance I’ve used."

We lean on the Knee Guard 6.0 Evo for reliable protection on high-speed and technical terrain, where a blend of mobility, breathability, and impact performance matters. Leatt builds this model around its 3DF impact foam—a ventilated, multi-impact material that conforms to the knee during movement but stiffens under force for CE Level 2 protection. This gives riders the soft-pad comfort they want on long pedals with the high-energy absorption they need on sketchier descents.

The inclusion of perforated hard-shell sliders elevates the guard’s durability and performance on slides. These segmented caps maintain flexibility in pedaling motion while providing a smooth surface that reduces snagging on rocks or loose surfaces. The hybrid sleeve uses MoistureCool wicking fabrics, Lycra, and ventilated neoprene for consistent airflow and a molded fit that stays secure regardless of leg position.

Fit stability is further reinforced by an anti-slip calf band designed to keep the guard from drifting during heavy braking, low-post descending, or aggressive body shifts. With its combination of soft-foam feel, sliding hard-shell protection, and robust ventilation, the Knee Guard 6.0 Evo is tailored for riders who balance long-distance trail work with committed technical riding.
