About a week ago, one of the knee wing plates fell completely off the pad during a game. The adhesive does not hold up to the leather. I took all my plates off. I really didn't have that hard of a time removing the velcro off the leather. It left no residue or damage to the leather either

Ultimately I want lace in pads, as c0nquistad0rian's, but my main problem is a lack of attachment with no medial rolls. I am not comfortable sewing one on my own nor do I see how you can on a TPS R8.

I might try taking the pads to the shoe repair guy that fixed my pads when I first bought them, (goalie monkey recommended him), and see if he might be able to sew on a leather medial roll.

My other concern is how I would go about making the holes in the leather once a medial roll is attached.
