ELEV8 Knee Sleeves (1 Pair) 5mm Neoprene Brace for Compression & Support - Powerlifting, Fitness, Squats, Cross Training, Circulation, Arthritis, Joint Pain – Men and Women

I am starting to do squats as an exercise and I'm 64 years old. It was recommended that I wear knee sleeves to keep my knees warm and give me just a little support. I followed the procedure to determine the size I needed (measuring my knees with a tape measure). It worked fine and the sleeves fit just fine. Just slightly snug. I wore them during my exercise and I felt the added support (without cutting off my circulation) and my knees were toasty warm. I recommend this product very heartily. I do some mobility work outside in 30 degree weather (running sideways, backwards, etc). I'll put these on for that outside work to keep my knees warm and give them a little support. I'm very pleased with the product and I recommend it heartily. And what a great price !

These knee sleeves are OK. I bought them for weightlifting, and I used the size chart, measuring around my patella per the instructions and ordering accordingly. They are nice and snug where they rest above the knee and below the knee, but around my knee itself they are not as tight as I would like, and the sides even bulge out a little once I start moving around. As a result, they don't provide the kind of compression and support that I am looking for on my knee itself when lifting heavy.They aren't all bad by any means. They do provide at least light knee support. The thick neoprene also keeps my knees nice and warm, which helps me feel super flexible for the squats and olympic lifts, which is nice. My main complaints are that they require regular adjustments and don't provide solid compression on my entire knee.If you are looking for light knee supports these would be fine. If you are looking for more of a compression brace, especially for lifting, these may not be adequate for your needs.

I found these just at the right time. I've been getting more serious about my weighlifting and I would always see people with knee sleeves on. I used to write it off thinking that any advantage to be had was a placebo effect but after trying these I'm convinced of the benefits. Apparently the point of the knee sleeve is to help keep your knees warm, fluid and flexible to get prime movement on your lifts. These definitely do that. Not to mention I just feel different when I'm reaching maximum depth on my squats, lunges and other knee bending exercises. The difference is the feeling of overall protection and support while pushing weight and I feel it the most when I'm getting to the upper and max end of my range.I would definitely buy these again if I ever needed to and I would recommend them to anyone look for a knee sleeve. Also, these are priced well enough where it might be a good idea to buy a few pairs and just leave them in various places so you never forget them (e.g., home, office, car, etc.)I also like the design and logo. Looks sleek.

Ordered two pairs, both in large, black and gray. The gray were true to size and fit like a large. The black were labeled large, but were way too big and looked like an xxl. I placed them on top of one another and they are even cut different sizes. The gray set seems a little better than the black.Update: I was contacted by the company and issued a second set that was much better in sizing. They were more than helpful and are an upstanding company! Will buy from again!

These are good quality knee sleeves, much better than I expected for the price. I also found the seller/manufacturer to be helpful and responsive when I emailed with questions. Unfortunately these knee sleeves weren't a good fit for me, as my knees are slim compared to my calves and thighs, so they were a bit loose in the knees for me, but I often have problems with fit when it comes to knee sleeves.I wouldn't let that deter you if you're considering these. They're not high enders, but the material and stitching are decent, the pair costs a third of a single name-brand sleeve, and if you're interested in getting into sleeves for lifting, these are definitely a good way to try them out without spending a bunch.

I mainly do crossfit and aside from tape for my hands, I've bought these to protect my knees from the hundred million squats our box makes us do. Nothing beats good form and technique, but I find the compression from these sleeves help to keep things in good form. I also like the minor padding, which helps with lunges.Size matters a lot for a product like this so make sure you read the size charts carefully.

I bought these to basically keep my knees warm when working out body parts other than my legs. These are 5mm thick and I ordered a size larger than the sleeves I use when actually doing legs. To that end they work well. If you need moderate support and your knees are good, these may suffice for leg day if you order them to fit fairly tight. For my actual leg workouts I prefer the 7mm sleeves with a tight fit. Just my preference. For my intended use the price is right for these 5mm sleeves. For heavy leg days, invest in a good set of 7mm sleeves. Trust me, when you get to be my age(62) you will understand my reasons for protecting your knees.

These knee sleeves really have been working out great.I have an issue with my right knee, so while I'm working out these have definitely changed the game for me in regards to comfort level at the gym. They do a great job at providing support while also keeping my knee warm throughout the workout. My only issue is not with the sleeves themselves but the fact that I will soon need to order myself a new size. I ordered a small and trying to pull them over my calves have proved to be a struggle, however once up they are great!
