EVS Sports Youth Slayco96 Knee Guard - Explosion

EVS × Renen × Axell Hodges Collaboration.

The Youth Slayco96 Knee Guard returns with a bold new look—Explosion, an exclusive colorway created through the ongoing collaboration between EVS Sports, Renen, and freeride icon Axell Hodges. Built on the trusted Slayco96 protection platform, this new graphic delivers high-impact style without sacrificing performance. Designed with splashes of red, green, and yellow over a deep black background, the Explosion colorway captures the raw energy and unpredictable attitude of modern freeriding. Developed under the creative direction of Renen and Pete Fox, this design ignites a fresh visual edge to one of EVS’ most popular knee guards.

The Slayco96 Knee Guard features an ultra-lightweight, impact-resistant shell, extended coverage zones, strategically placed ventilation, and a secure, performance-focused fit designed for comfort during high-intensity riding. Already a favorite among freeriders and motocross athletes, this new graphic option gives riders a fresh way to stand out while staying fully protected.

Since 1985, EVS Sports has led the industry in innovative, rider-focused protective gear. With products engineered for everyone from weekend riders to world-class athletes, EVS remains committed to pushing progression, style, and safety forward.

Features:

• EVS teamed up with Axell Hodges to engineer protection that keeps up with his fast, creative, limit-pushing style. Built around Axell’s need for real impact performance and full freedom of movement, the Slayco96 knee pad delivers CE Level 2 protection in a lightweight, low-profile design. It reduces fatigue, stays cool, secure, and out of your way so you can ride longer with more confidence.
• RMF:
  • Reactive Memory Foam (RMF) gives you the best of both worlds: all-day comfort and serious impact protection. The foam stays soft and flexible while you ride, molding to your knee for a natural, unrestricted feel. The moment you take a hit, it instantly hardens to absorb and disperse impact energy.
  • Reactive Memory Foam is soft and pliable in its natural state but hardens when force is applied to it, providing a protective barrier that meets CE 1621-1 LEVEL 2 protection.
• Trac Grip: Tacky silicone grippers are strategically placed in key areas to help hold the knee pad in place and provide necessary protection for, not if, but when you go down.
• Bio-Foam:
  • Bike hugging molded bio-foam shields your knee and shin from impacts, and the foam wings keep the pad tight to the bike so you can stay locked in. More control. More confidence. No slipping, even when the ride gets sketchy.
  • Molded bio-foam bordering the knee cup and shin provides increased impact protection while the strategically placed bio-foam wing promotes bike hugging inner and outer knee protection.
• Hexprene: Class-leading engineered fabric from the aviation industry, provides zonal support and maximum airflow, while still providing ample protection.
• Breathable: Class-leading engineered Hexprene fabric gives you targeted support while pushing airflow through the pad to keep you cool, dry, and protected on every ride.
• Compression Fit: The additional inner sleeve delivers a snug, supportive fit that boosts knee stability and prevents pad slip, keeping your focus on the ride, not your gear.
• Certifications: Rated to CE 1621-2 Level 2
• Size: Youth
