A little unorthodox
Believe or not I use floatation cushions. I buy the solid core with long strap(Bradley). I tie one side in a knot to get half the length so I can go with any height. This has worked out for years and the cushions last a few years. I've had no issues with strap breaking or tears. Eventually it does wear out. Reason I use these they tend to not roll or move around dock post since its flat. I've doubled up in some cases using Velcro strap to tie together. Using the cushions does double duty, one for docks and one for safety in case person overboard which is required. This saves me space since I have a 20' boat.
My own docks has its own bumpers since I got that option when buying dock.
