A weight-displacing knee pad comprising:

• an outer cushion member, the outer cushion member having an exterior surface defining a knee-receiving cavity and a shin-receiving surface;
• and
• an inner member of a substantially rigid material, the inner member:
• having a shin-support body disposed beneath the shin-receiving surface of the outer cushion member so as to define a shin support zone and at least a portion of the shin-support body includes a triangular cross-section with a first apex extending upwardly toward the shin-receiving surface;
• and

A weight-displacing knee pad comprising:

• an outer cushion member, the outer cushion member having an exterior surface defining a knee-receiving cavity and a shin-receiving surface;
• and
• an inner member substantially enclosed by the outer cushion member, at least a portion of the inner member having a shin-support body disposed beneath the shin-receiving surface, at least a portion of the shin-support body including a triangular cross-section with a first apex extending upwardly toward the shin-receiving surface;
• and
• a forward knee-movement barrier disposed on a side of the knee-receiving cavity that is opposite a side of the knee-receiving cavity where the shin-receiving surface is disposed, the forward knee-movement barrier including a forward knee-barrier support body defined by at least a portion of the inner member and including a triangular cross-section with a second apex extending upwardly toward a ridge of the forward knee-movement barrier.
