McDavid Knee Compression Knit Sleeve W/ Gel Buttress and Stays, S/M

Four way stretch. Reinforced with spring steel stays on the sides. Gel buttress gives patella support. Fits left or right. 85% nylon, 15% spandex. If this fit better it would be OK. It rolls down from the top so I had to keep adjusting it. Could not wear it for long as it was causing pain from being so constrictive. I got an XL and it was too tight to be comfortable. Not going to help me, cannot recommend.

This knee compression sleeve provides mother support and relief from pain socialized with authorized brutalities and tendonitis. This knee sleeve doesn't slide down or moves. Also it is very breathable and doesn't hold heat. It has a four way stretch. It has reinforced steel spring for added support and lateral movement. It has a padded knee to protect from bumps. It can be used with right or left knee.

I had a knee surgery a while back and wanted extra support for my knee for the occasional aches. The large/extra large did not make it to my knee. I think it runs a little small or maybe it should be because it adds compression. This brace is good looking and has excellent elements, such as the gel on the inside. For me, it didn't work, but once my knee swelling decreases more, I'll give it another try. It just seems too, too small.

I was amazed on how my knee felt after putting on the McDavid Knee Compression sleeve. It is very comfortable and supportive. I took it out for a test run on my right knee, and couldn't believe the difference it makes. I will most definitely be getting another for my other knee!

I've had 2 Major Reconstructive Knee Surgeries & quite a few Braces/Sleeves. It's difficult to find one that's not only effective, but comfortable. This Sleeve is both, it stays almost perfectly in place & it's actually quite comfortable for a compression Sleeve. The gel buttress inside is a full circle as compared to some others that are only half. It's comfortable to be active in or just sit around doing anything because your in pain. I have thick legs so any brace I wear is going to have a difficult time staying in place, so if you have legs like me just be aware of that. It stays in place much better than the majority of these on the market, which is important for being active. I won't say that I wear it all the time because I don't need it in that way anymore, but I believe that you would enjoy this Sleeve if you did have to wear it more often. Good stretch, good hold, good comfort & not bad looking either. Overall a very good product & I'd definitely recommend this.

I have had knee pain for quite sometime now. I have tried other devices, but the pain never seems to decrease effectively. I've had to curtail my activities many times due to the pain. Now that I am 66 years old, the frequency of pain has increased. I have to say that since getting the McDavid Knee Compression Knit Sleeve, my activity level has gotten higher. I am able to bend up and down more, do more house work, and even do more enjoyable activities. This knee sleeve has a gel butress, which surrounds my knee, and provides wonderful support. This sleeve fits either your right or left knee. My left knee is my problem. Since wearing the knee sleeve, I am now able to stand at the sink longer to do wash my dishes, and bend up and down to load the dishwasher. I am very pleased with this product, as it has afforded me another chance at normal activity. It is a tight supportive fit, and does not slip down or around. So not only can you use this for playing sports, but it is working for me to increase my daily activities. As a senior, for now it is very beneficial to me, we'll see how it does for long term use. 5 STARS ***** for helping me to live my life!!!!

This is a soft breathable compression sleeve that give pretty strong compression. I would almost say it is too tight and my leg is average size even though I am slightly overweight. This would be helpful with soreness from extended walking/hiking or after twisting or over extending knee while out on a trail or playing sports. I am a little concerned that it might make my leg fall asleep after wearing it for very long. If I needed to continue walking after injuring my knee, I would be glad to have it. I will keep this in my hiking backpack for future excursions. It’s thick and soft with thick gel to surround your knee cap.

This is a great knee support. I worked for a Chiropractor for over 15 years. We ordered many that had the donut for extra support. After cooking Thanksgiving dinner and being up all day, my knee was killing me. I put this knee support on and my knee stopped hurting. It fit great and I love that it stayed in place while moving and walking the rest of the day. I love that it has the donut circle. That is what gives it great support. You can wear on the left or right knee. It can be hand washed and hung to dry. It also has a gel in the center of the donut which is very comfortable and feel very supportive.

One of the problems I have found with knee sleeves is they do not stay up or in place. This sleeve has a spring steel piece that runs down each side of the sleeve that worked well to help the sleeve stay in place. The piece of steel is under a run of fabric so it never touches your skin. The sleeve is made of elastic and has areas that provide extra compression. The knew is surrounded by a pad of gel which I found very comfortable. Provides very good compression and support. I will say you need to measure. My calf is 16 inches, but I could still wear it fine. I would say anything over 16" and your not going to be able to get it on and be comfortable.

I got this to use around the house and in the yard. Sure helps out having the padding when working on your knees. I tried it out the other day when I was fishing in my friends boat. Sleeve with the gel pad is perfect when kneeling on the boat deck. It doesn't matter, at home or in the boat, at the end of the day my knee feels much better using this.
