Mava Sports Knee Compression Sleeve Support for Men and Women - Perfect for Powerlifting, Weightlifting, Running, Gym Workout, Squats and Pain Relief

Great sleeves for anyone who works out or exercises. Stays in place during workout, gives very good support and provides the heat retention that you want during your workout. They do not roll down and are not movement constrictive. The measuring chart and instructions work perfect. These are not knee wraps and will not give your the support of a wrap. As others have reported I have not had any issues with these either rolling down, itching my skin not staying in place. I've used my first pair for about 4 months and had to go to the next bigger size, and the first pair look brand new. I used them 2-3 times a week for about 1- 1.5 hrs at a time. Everyone that I have turned on to these love them and have no issues at all. Remember, these are not knee wraps, they give you very comfortable support during your exercise and help keep the knee warm will you are exercising. Using this product for other uses and then saying they don't work is not fair, get the knee wrap for your application.

Update:I've had these for over two years, and they still work well. Not as tight as some, light compression on the knee that is comfortable, and they don't slide down easily. I hand wash them, and they have surprised me by lasting this long.Original review:Because I have thick thighs and muscular calves, I find it hard to find knee sleeves that fit. Some absolutely strangle my calves and thighs while they fit my knees just right, others are too loose on my knees. I emailed Mava support to ask which knee sleeve they recommended for light squats and knee rehab for someone with larger legs but smaller knees, and they suggested these, so I gave 'em a shot.While I don't find the knee area tight enough for squatting heavy, overall I really like these - they're warm, they do apply some compression on my knees and are flexible enough to fit my legs, too. For squats, I'm using a wrap over the sleeve for a little more compression for my trouble knee, and they're great for the rest of my workout and recovery - leaving them on for a little while has stopped the swelling that used to follow my leg workouts.Since everyone's legs are different, these may or may not work for you. For me, I really like them, and if you have bigger legs and smaller knees and need moderate compression, these are well worth trying, especially considering that many knee sleeves are over $30 for one while these are $20 for a pair.

I've used their products before and love the quality and fit but had to readjusting the brace throughout the day. The added strap is comfortable and keeps the brace in place. I brought a second one.

Excellent Product!! I recently started a new job with excellent benefits and pay, the downside- 12 hour shifts And with my wife's great cooking, I have managed to add on a few pounds over the years. I have had 3 surgeries on my knees, next stop total knee replacement. After a week at the new job, I was taking 4 tylenol and 4 ibuprofen before starting work and every 2 hours at work(way over the RDU I know). and still was in so much pain I was thinking about quitting the job. Since my wife is the smart one in the family, she suggested a knee brace or sleeve. I have used several kinds before,but they were always uncomfortable, especially after only a couple hours with the perspiration making the skin itch on the firm kneebrace types. And the sleeve types were always rolling down after a short time as my thighs are a lot larger than the knee and lower leg. But I looked on Amazon and saw these compression sleeves for a great price and decided to give them a try. The first day, I started getting itchy around the edge seam of the sleeve, and thought "well, this is a waste". I went home and told the wife how it went. We looked at the sleeve seams and thought maybe the silicone? beading on it to keep the sleeve from sliding down was causing a reaction. So the next day I put the sleeves on inside out and went to work. Took medicine to start shift. Got to breaktime and Hey, Its not hurting as much!!.And at the end of the shift there they hadn't rolled down and there was no skin itching. A couple weeks have passed. They still stay up all shift and no irritation. And I now only take pain meds once or maybe twice a day instead on the usual 5, 6 or 7 times a day. I highly recommend this product to anyone with knee pain or problems.

These sleeves were very comfortable to wear for long periods, and provided really good support, but didn't last very long. The top stitching on one started to come apart after 2 weeks, and the top of the other started to curl at the same time. I alternated wearing one at a time to avoid over stressing them, but they still didn't last long. I'm still able to wear the one that's curling a bit after a couple of months, but looking for something better. The one where the stitching came undone was unwearable.Update 14Jun2018: Well I have to give Mava credit for good customer service, as someone there read my initial review and offered to send a replacement. They were confident that I just happened to get a pair with a production glitch. Well unfortunately, the first replacement I tried blew its stitching after just one wearing as shown in the picture. I've worn the other one a few times now and the stitching at least is holding up. Will have to wait to see if the elastic avoids curling, but I think I'm going to look for something better.
