FELCO 711 - Professional Gel Cushion Knee Pads - Comfort Hinge - Non-Slip Viticulture & Landscaping Protection
Hours spent kneeling between vine rows, garden beds, or paved pathways place serious stress on knees and lower back. The FELCO 711 knee pads use an articulating comfort hinge that flexes with natural leg movement, keeping protection in place without the constant slip common on rigid pads.
Dual-layer gel foam and high-density EVA distribute weight evenly and absorb impact on rough terrain. The 420D nylon and rubber cap face resists punctures and grips wet grass, gravel, and concrete, while breathable neoprene straps with locking buckles and hook-and-loop fasteners prevent bunching behind the knee during warm Australian shifts.
Best For: Professional vine pruners, commercial landscapers, greenkeepers, and dedicated gardeners who need all-day joint support and stable, non-slip knee protection on uneven or damp terrain.
Key Features:
- Comfort Hinge Technology: Articulating hinge aligns with knee biomechanics for uncompromised mobility between walking and kneeling.
- Dual-Layer Gel Foam & EVA Cushioning: Combines gel foam and high-density EVA to distribute weight and absorb floor impact.
- Slip-Resistant 420D Nylon-Rubber Cap: Rugged outer cap resists punctures and grips wet grass, gravel, mud, and concrete.
- Dual-Zone Secure Strap System: Locking buckle and hook-and-loop elastic straps positioned high and low prevent pad shift.
- Breathable Neoprene Strapping: Promotes airflow and ventilation, minimising sweating and chafing in warm conditions.
- Lightweight Ergonomic Footprint: 460 g per pair with 300 mm protective coverage without unnecessary bulk.

Primary Field & Utility Applications
- Vineyard & Grove Pruning: Joint cushioning during low-level vineyard pruning, cane tying, and olive grove maintenance.
- Landscaping & Turf Work: Protection on sharp stones, damp soil, and gravel during turf laying, weeding, and paving prep.
- Nursery & Domestic Maintenance: Extended potting sessions, brick paving, patio tiling, and property upkeep.
Pro Tip & Maintenance: Hand-wash neoprene straps and air-dry away from direct heat to preserve elasticity. Check buckle engagement before each shift; loose straps are the primary cause of pad migration. Rotate pad position slightly during long sessions to redistribute pressure points.
Oversized Item Delivery Options
Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)
Important Notes:
- Shipping costs vary by location and method
- Because of the forklift requirement, delivery to the nearest depot is the default option and will be the method used unless you contact us to request otherwise.
Business Delivery:
- Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
- If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
- If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
- Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.
Lead Times:
- In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
- Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.
While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.
Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions
Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:
- Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
- Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).
Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
