Uflex Athletics Knee Sleeve

I find these braces to be the BEST ones for me! They are really comfortable, stay in place, and offer gentle support when my knees are acting up. I have bought them several times and size up because I don't want a lot of compression; a gentle warming works wonders for my knees. The braces are a soft very elastic knit with sturdy binding sewn to each edge so they don't fall apart with use. Inside the top edge are two rows of silicone in a zig-zag pattern that I don't care for so I wear the braces inside out and they still work great. The silicone rows are there to keep the brace in place but silicone usually irritates my skin. Using the braces inside out makes no difference in performance and they still stay in place even when I'm really active. I own about 3 pairs of these now and seem to buy another one whenever I see them on sale. The oldest braces are still the same size and work just as well as when they were new but I find that they take a day or two to dry after washing so I like to have several pairs in reserve. I hand wash them using warm water and Dawn dishwashing detergent. Rinse in warm water and roll in a towel to get somewhat dry before hanging them up to finish drying. I found that if I don't roll them in a towel after rinsing they take about 4 days to dry because they are such a thick knit.

UPDATE: Just purchased my 2nd pair and as the first they really do the job. One thing this time though my measurement was right on the cutoff line between small and medium. I first purchased the med and they were fine but not quite as snug as I wanted.. This time went for small and they are nice and snug and work perfectly. Seems like everything I buy I am on a size cutoff line. I have had knee braces and sleeves most of my life for sports and other activities and I am 74 now and still very active. Osteoarthritis can be very painful and unforgiving at times and the old knees need some help. These appear to be a quality product and am very happy with them especially for he price. When needed I use for biking and walking (hiking) and sometimes just during the day for comfort. One thing I must mention and this would be true with any sleeve of this type and that is the sizing. My measurements 4 inches above the knee (17 1/4) are right at the cut off line between the highest for small and lowest for medium. Since I have never gotten anything that said small I went for the medium and glad I did. These are perfectly comfortable with good but not super compression. I really don't want any more compression as I know that may be a little tight and begin to cut off circulation. I also have some braces that use velcro straps to tighten and if I really wanted more compression I would use those but for longer wear times these sleeves seem to work just fine. Haven't washed yet so not sure how they will hold up. Finally, really like the anti slip substance they use to keep in place. Would buy again.

Sleeve arrived on time and looks good. I am happy with the compression aspect. Using it for minor support of an arthritic knee. Material seems to be of reasonable quality. It has helped.

Love these braces. They are everything advertised and more, especially for the price. Im 70 and have a basket full of old knee braces that I can now throw out. They provide phenomenal support without impeding movement at all. Very comfortable and they stay in place. My knees have been balky for years.....feel way better after workouts now than they have in a long time. I did have a tiny imperfection in the one brace which I almost ignored but I returned it and had a new one the next day! I'm 6-3 220 if that helps anyone I measured at 17 and medium fits great.

This product was exactly what I expected. I order 2 different compression knee braces and I returned the other one and kept this one. It is snug without being too tight and provides relief from my knee pain. Good quality for the money. I order 2 (one for each knee) and am glad I did. Highly recommend.

Although this seems to be a very well-made support, there was an issue. I measured 16.5" @ 4" above my knee (which was the lower level of the M), so I got size M; however, the fit was extremely tight above the knee, felt like it was cutting off my circulation. I've already cut out the tags and worn them, so I'll not be returning, but I'm not sure that I'll be wearing these again.

I had to return because it was big size for , quality wise it was good ,

Tengo 3 cirugias en mi rodilla y dolores cronicos .La uso para jugar futbol. Buen producto. Nada que ver con las rodilleras economicas. Buen material. Ajusta perfectamente la rodilla y le da un soporte necesario sin sentirse incomoda. Practicamente no la sientes.

Good

I measured my thigh as suggested, 19 1/4 inches, and bought the Medium Size. This was suggested by another customer who was 19 inches and I agree. The Medium is a good fit (maybe a touch tight at first, but I expect it to loosen up a tad after wearing it for a while) and Large would be too loose. When I first put it on, I felt an increased level of knee support and stability. Prior to wearing this sleeve, I had to decend stairs one step at a time.... now I can go up and down with alternate steps! I am pleased with my order and improved mobility! Update: I am so impressed that I just ordered a second one!
