Do not size down, thinking these will stretch!

Sizing:
Sizing on such an aggressive material will be the hardest part about purchasing. You will notice that the sizing guide isn't based on knee circumference, but rather a calf measurement. The reason behind that is due to the fact that it doesn't matter the knee circumference if you cannot get it up over the calf! The quad measurement doesn't matter quite as much either as these sleeves have a good taper on them. I recommend sizing up when a question falls on which size to get.... BUT that is for assurance because these sleeves DO NOT stretch very much.

"It's been 84 years"...... Well not quite but knee sleeves have been on my "to do" list for a LONG time. Well I can finally mark them off that list because our first ever neoprene knee sleeve is here! I searched high and low for an American manufacturer to tackle this project with since we could not get them done internally, but unfortunately could not find one so we expanded the search and was able to find a reputable supplier outside of the USA. They have been a long time buyer of our products actually so the reciprocation made sense. We went back and forth for several months and when I got the first prototype in, I knew we were on to something. Fast forward a few designs and another several months, and here we are! We now have (IMO) the strongest and best 7mm sleeve in the world. The sleeves are NOT a joke... they are seriously stiff and are not intended for a warm compression to walk around in. They are meant more to mimic knee wraps and to get more pounds added to the bar with confidence. These sleeves are sold as a pair.

Great Sleeves

Great sleeves. Thickest/stiffest sleeves I've ever worn, almost comparable to wearing knee wraps. If you have thick calves, I would definitely go a size up. I bought an XL with 15" calves, and they are super difficult to take off. I would recommend going up a size but that's just my opinion.

Game-Changing Knee Sleeves

I received my knee sleeves today and couldn’t wait to test them out—and wow, they did not disappoint! The difference they make is night and day. With the sleeves on, my knees feel incredibly supported, offering fantastic stability during my lifts. They even helped me hit a new personal record today! I’m giving these knee sleeves a well-deserved five-star rating.
One tip: stick to the size chart. I initially struggled to choose the right size and had to exchange for a different one, but the chart was spot-on. For those new to knee sleeves, putting them on can feel tricky. I recommend the “fold-in-half” method: fold the sleeve in half, position it where you want it, then roll it up to fit snugly over your thigh, knee, and calf.
I’ve purchased several items from this brand, and everything has been top-notch. If you’re on the fence about these knee sleeves, trust me—just get them. You won’t regret it!

The ULTIMATE PR kneepad if you have a team to assist

I sized up 2x and I can probably get them on with lifting straps but im not sure how I would get them off once they are saturated with sweat. These things are rock solid and I have no doubt they will allow you to get out of the bottom much easier! They do not fold inside out like "standard" knee sleeves which aids in removal. If I use them, ill save for a PR and bring scissors with me to remove. I highly suggest that you size up 2x at minimum! Don't count on them breaking in to stretch them either. These are the ultimate PR kneepads if you have a team to aid in removing them.

Best knee sleeves

These are the best knee sleeves I’ve ever used! Highly recommend! Just make sure to size up if you’re not sure, cuz they are tight!

Very good knee sleeves

One of the best and my favorite knee sleeves to wear for squatting. Theyre very stiff and fits me perfectly for which i use for heavier squat days. Price is very good for a stiff knee sleeve, which i highly recommend in general.
