I have them fitted about an inch below the knee but I have bruising half way up my shin. I'm sure it's 50/50 bad fit and technique but I found the distels so much more comfortable. I'm not sure about the "click" ones as I like to really wrench in the foot loops and I can't see me being able to clip those in tight enough? 

 

Maybe I'll order the velcro/leather with American (pole) gaffs and see how I get on! 

It’s honestly not an issue at all. If anything they’re better. Really nice for putting them on up a tree.

Got my first day in the distels yesterday. Overall about 4 hours on spikes and I absolutely love them. So much more comfortable, not just the padding but the foot "hook" doesn't seem to dig into the arch of my foot either. Absolutely spot on 👌

I agree Mark. My reductions have come on leaps and bounds since I got mine

Just for reference it was a removal that I overpriced and had to stretch out the time it took so the customer thought they were getting what they paid for although it does look like a reduction in that photo 😂 I took it as an opportunity to mess about with some new kit 😂 It was over an asbestos roof, an old rotten fence and then the customers garden was stacked full of nick-nacks. Here were the last 3 stems of 5 courtesy of my groundies potato cam. I was able to just about stretch it out to 1pm.
