Knee pads

What's the latest and greatest knee pad? I did a search, but most of the threads were a bit old, so I want to do a re-check. I've been getting banged up a bit, so I want to find a really good pair that are protective, low profile, and comfortable.

Asics is the only brand I have ever had, I'm on my second pair. I like them, and there are a lot to choose from.

They have a pretty good assortment. I have a cheapo pair from a local sporting goods store and they are not comfortable at all.

Did anyone ever try these vollyball kneepads?

http://www.asicsamerica.com/product....Y_ID=250001234

I like them because they're 100% cotton, but I don't know if they're any good for jiu-jitsu, I need good protection because I was taken down on my left knee and I missed over two weeks so far because of this injury, but at the same time I hate wearing nylon, I have sensitive skin. Any suggestions?
