Sparthos Knee Compression Sleeves by (Pair) – Joint Protection and Support for Running, Sports, Knee Pain Relief (Desert Beige, Large)

Best compression sleeve I’ve ever purchased.Makes my knee feel so much better and the fit is perfect. I’m on the smaller side and it fits properly around my knee without slipping but not too tight to cause discomfort.

Great support. Material last years even if used 7 days a week

Having used a bulkier knee brace before, I was looking for something less binding and less noticeable under clothing. Because the product is lighter weight and flesh toned, these have been worn under long pants as well as shorts and a summer dress. They come in a variety of sizes with a sizing guide to follow. I ordered the size recommended. They were comfortable and not bulky, affording enough help over several days to minimize the knee problem. However, the photos show irritation from the silicone (?) Used to keep it in place. I normally am not allergic, and was surprised to have this irritation happen, and even after several days the demarcations were still visible (see photos). I am pleased with the product’s performance as far as helping the knee pain relief (other than the skin irritation) and serviceability with all clothing. The product is reasonably priced, and two compression pads are included. They cannot be machine washed, but can be washed by hand. I have not had them long enough to speak of durability.

These are amazing. They are comfortable, stay put on my leg, neutral in color. It’s hard to believe they have the compression they have. Two come in the box. One major complaint— they are currently out of stock. I wish I would have bought 2 pairs initially. I will definitely buy again!

This would be a great knee sleeve for a sprain, strain or just to give some knee suppport. But it did not provide anywhere near enough support or stabilization for the osteoarthritis in my knee.Plus the size is weird. I have very slim legs and in all other knee braces I wear a small. With this, I measured and it came out an extra large! I ordered an XL and a Large. The Large was way too tight around my thigh and didn’t give enough support to my knee. The XL was comfortable around my thigh but really didn’t provide much support at all. As I said - probably good for a sprain or strain but not serious knee problems.

I'm a 6'0", 196lbs, male, very active runner. Purchased the large knee sleeve in beige. I've tried almost all of the knee sleeves out there and I have a sock drawer dedicated to all kinds of sleeves/braces to prove it. Ever since the marathon season kicked off (about 2 months ago) my knee has been bothering me. On a whim (think impulse shopping) I clicked on this particular knee sleeve. The initial first two impressions (this has everything to do with aesthetics and nothing to do with performance) of the knee sleeve was off putting but everything after that (performance and feel) was absolutely outstanding.First two impressions --The color selection of the sleeves was blah ... the beige color was more orange in color. I know that sounds weird but like I stated earlier it's only aesthetics.-After taking it out of the package the sleeve looked like it was too big for my leg. Again this was only my initial impression.Everything else --The texture feels like a typical knee sleeve (nice), breathable and not hot.-Like I stated in the cons section ... After taking it out of the package I immediately slipped off my go to knee sleeve and slipped this one on. The immediate reaction was it fits like an absolute glove.Normally, I won't go gaga over a product I've purchased. But my knee has not felt this good in a long time... so good in fact that yesterday afternoon I did sprints with no irritation. Afterwards, I showered and slipped on the other knee sleeve (this comes in a pair) and have not taken this sleeve off in 24hrs.I cannot endorse this knee sleeve enough.Not only will I purchase this again but I am about to purchase another pair (this time in black) after I write this review.

over a ditch, unintentionally, when I was young and dumb. My Harley and I remained aloft about a second. I landed first, on the ground. The Harley landed on my left knee. See where I'm going with this? More recently, I attempted to break up a fight between my neighbor's dog and my sweet Sadie. When the fight was over, both dogs were unwounded, but I was once again on the ground. As I attempted to stand, that old left knee failed to cooperate. Torn meniscus.I now wear Sparthos Knee Compression Sleeves on both knees throughout the day. (The right knee aches, too. Arthritis and a pesky hamstring pull.) I'm an active old codger. I work out, I walk the dog, I do yard work. The Sparthos sleeves are great! I wear a size "large" and extend the sleeve high on my right leg (see pic above--wish my legs looked like that) to cover the spot where the hamstring connects to whatever it connects to. The sleeves allow me to climb, slowly, sixteen flights of stairs as part of my exercise routine. (Not trying to be Mr. Olympia--just trying to stay even.)This is my 2nd pair. I would still be wearing the first after more than a year but somebody (maybe me?) put the Sparthos in the dryer. Anything that will stretch and support so well will also shrink when subjected to the extreme heat of a clothes dryer. Don't do it. Follow directions. Handwash. Air dry.I've worn probably a half-dozen brands of knee sleeve, and also tried three or four brands of knee wraps. The Sparthos beats them all, hands down. They do what they're supposed to do--provide excellent support and extend from upper calf to lower hams. They're durable, and they look great, even on my skinny old legs. I'll buy another pair soon as I forget and stoke the new ones in the dryer. In fact, I may buy another pair today to wear while the new pair are air-drying at room temperature after a gentle 2-minute wash in the kitchen sink.

This was too tight at the thigh & not tight and supportive enough on my knee, where it needs to be. I liked the material and color but I had to return this.
