View Full Version : Knee Sleeves
Not a specific product review as such, just a general 'you should all buy these' announcement.
I was getting a fair bit of knee pain a while back, doctor came up with nothing, I suspect patellar tendonitis. Hurt especially when cold. Consensus from alot of Strongman folk I spoke to was that knee sleeves were the key to eternal knee health.
Bought some, cheapies, but 4mm neoprene so not bad.
Verdict - Awesome. My knees feel about 300 degrees centigrade in them, and they love it, no pain. No stiffness, nothing.
They're also very useful as padding when doing lunges etc and your knee hits the floor.
Get some.
I'll second this, my knees were pretty clicky so i got some TK knee sleevs and have felt a major improvement even after only wearing them sporadically. Actually make my knees sweat.
Yeah my knees sweat to all mother**** in them, I get rashes if I wear them too long!
wish i could say i didn't, but i forgot to take them off for a while after the gym once and it wasnt pretty...

Have been wondering about investing in these for a while, has anyone got any recommended sites for purchasing?
Remember Mike Robertson recommending them on t-nation.

The below look pretty reasonable

Found loads of knee "support" but I'm not sure if they're actually sleeves!

I got mine here, http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/tom/knee.html they were more expensive than that but feel like good quality, though theres no kinky knee hole.. The $ to £ exchange rate is awesome at the moment so they don't actually work out too expensive, think i paid slightly over 30 quid including postage.

Tried my new Tommy Kono knee sleeves on for my squatting session tonight and I had no twinges or clicks during or after my training :)

This is definatly interesting to know, i was always from the school of thought that supports were bad cos you get dependant on them, but during training the loads your under it would be a good move

Yeah I bought them, was under £25 with delivery (my link was £17 per sleeve!) - no idea what foreign currency charge I'll receive though - but bugger it!

Even tight sleeves really don't offer anything in the way of support. I'm about as anti support gear as you can get remember. Sleevs are not wraps, they're just there to keep the joint warm.
Where did you get yours from, Tim?
Just a shitty local discount store. Everyone goes on about Rehbands but they are ridiculously overpriced imo, long as you get reasonably thick neoprene they will be fine

Only used them once so limited feedback to offer
- were easier than I imagined getting on and off
- my knees were wet with sweat afterwards
- walking was weird in them

my TK's have split, on the inside rubber, quite bad too. i was treating them with such honor too, off the bb.com to get a replacement.

How the hell did you do that? Rip them off (literally) in a very manly fashion?!
i was actually doing exactly as the instructions suggest, the whole fold over things, then when i finish with them dry em off and let em air dry too.
anyway, this is what bb.com had to say, needless to say i am impressed!

Imagine if she was and grew up to be a fat lazy cow.Its like calling your kid "Bella"-recipe for disaster......mind you my name apparently means "flower" in latin or at least that is part of its origin....
What convinced you to buy some Chi ? Have you had your knee problem looked at yet ?
was going to see the physio at the club last night but she couldn't make it, i trained last night as i had not run or squatted for a week, although my knees don't feel perfect they were only 1/4 as sore as last week. So i'm hoping with another couple of weeks of not pushing too much i can get back on it and if the knee sleeve help in the long run i might as well give it ago.
I paid something like £9 for mine :)
I got two for £8.98 from soccer world!! lonsdale ones 4mm neoprene, not squatted or deadlifted in them yet but have worn them a few times seem fine.
lol, I'd check to see if bb.com do refunds!!!
LOL, yep seems you got raped!

Of those who invested in knee sleeves, who has noticed a difference with regards to pain relief?
I'm going to have to follow suit. My knees are clicking, cracking and crunching, with minor shooting pains, dull ache and a general "weak" feeling.
It might be a result of squatting with less than perfect form the past few weeks after switching to thickbar squats with an upped poundage.
There's a knee cartlidge problem that runs in the family, so I need to tread carefully.
you take any joint supps webby?
webcore:
I was getting a dull pain a few months back, took a complete break from lower work as at the time was squatting and deadlifting the same day twice a week so don't think it helped.
I waited till the pain subsided and did some work stretches and exercises for a few weeks. When i went back to squatting/deadlifting didn't go back to what i was doing and now wear knee sleeves and haven't had an issue since, but i don't just think its because of the knee sleeves, take a rest and do some stretches/exercises to help the knee.
Cheers. Maybe I'll do the same. Break, then knee sleeves with strict attention to form.
Cruffle: Nope, but you just reminded me to grab some Glucosamine Sulphate.
My Knees uses to pretty bad that I needed sleeves for any slight activity. But since I moved to squatting and pulling in the same session once a week, knees, hips and back have never been better from the 7 days rest! I feel fresher going into a session. Rather than taking a long break, maybe try squat+ dead together every 10 days and bring it down to 7 days if it getting better.

Try a high strength glucosamine, msm, chrondramin (sp) formula. So much better than glucosamine IMO.

I'm not deadlifting at the moment.
Squatting in every session 2-3 times per week though...
Almost certainly just simple overuse injury then, which is exactly what sleeves help so much with, as a supple, warm joint receives a good deal less wear and tear

True, but wouldn't a more adequate warm up acheive the same result without having to wear sleeves?
No, not even nearly the same result. You could also argue that the warm up itslef would be causing it's own wear. Indeed that was what caused the most discomfort when I was having my knee problems.

i agree. they rock.
This guy on Ebay is taking the piss delivering my knee sleeves despite the Royal Mail strike and he's not answering emails.
On another note, do you think this will be of any use?
http://www.discount-supplements.co.uk/shopexd.asp?id=6228
thats alot of $ for a small amount mind. if you get it let us know.
Knees are driving me mental now.
£16 is no problem provided it gives the slightest bit of relief to allow me to squat again.
I was going to say; "My knees click more than...." but the Vodka Explodes got the best of me....
Royail mail strikes are pissing me off. I'm waiting of the knee sleeves and a fan for my CPU in my comp. Comp sounds like a ****ing hoover.
Sleeves finally arrived.
Tight as hell. I can feel my circulation cutting off.
Back to squatting though with (hopefully) no more knee troubles...
what sleeves did you get after WC?
I bought these for £6 off ebay.
The pic makes them look nasty, but they are good quality and quite thick...
On a side note, I just found out my dad has been wearing knee sleeves he bought from Boots for the past 4 weeks.
His knees were really bad (including cartlidge op) and he says he hasn't even clicking since so I'm confident that these will prove useful.
so does he wear them for exercise or just when out about.
He wears them all day regardless if he's sitting all day or walking.
Ok, I thought I'd give an update on the the knee sleeve saga.
I've worn them now for about a month during squats, sometimes keeping the, on for the whole workout.
Pain is gone completely, as has the regular loud clicking everytime I extend my leg. The odd click is all I ever witness (with no dull pain following), which is pretty normal...
To top it off my squat poundage is the highest it's been!

I'm needing some new knee sleeves as my TK Knee sleeves (http://www.prowriststraps.com/inc/sdetail/29942) are falling apart. The TK Knee sleeves are just neoprene and are easily ripped and damaged. Any recommendations? So far i've looked at:
APT Sleeves (http://www.prowriststraps.com/inc/sdetail/95496)
and
Rehbrand sleeves (http://www.prowriststraps.com/inc/sdetail/93831)
I use londale ones from Sportsworld, Think they cost me around 6 quid for a pair and they are still going strong.

I've heard that a few times but every time I see one I go inside and they've got a million different football shirts and that's it :mad:
APT ;)
i love mine, gona get some new ones at some point as my legs are getting swoler it would seem, so gona use my current ones for pressing.
you would say that wouldnt you sloth, ****ing sell out :D
noted. cheers pick
We told you that first time around after getting raped on the price lol
To add to what pick said i've had mine from soccer world a while and are holding up fine
I use londale ones from Sportsworld, Think they cost me around 6 quid for a pair and they are still going strong.I got some of these and they got ****ed and fell apart within literally 2 weeks. Doing without just now.
Oh and i think sportsworld do mail order.
Currently got: http://www.firstaid4sport.co.uk/products-Knee-Support-McDavid-401_MC401.htm
V Happy with them
is that price for a single or a pair?
I am in need of some new knee sleeves. I currently have the Argos ones, and tbh they are pretty shit. They won't go over my knees properly. I have to pull them up every 2 minutes, and I doubt they are doing their job keeping my knees nice and warm when they keep falling down.

Ditto that. Their neoprene shorts are pretty good too for the price.

Well, in the few sportworlds(or whatever it's called these days) that I've been in, the neoprene stuff has always been a few metres away from the checkout counter.
is that price for a single or a pair?
Each!
Despite the price i'm more than happy, good quality and thick. Similiar price to Rehband and ATP.
go for APT. delivery is cheap and you can get some other kit at the same time!
GIFT of 2" Wide Heavy Basic Lifting Straps and 15% subtracted from your entire order
just for taking a look if you decide to purchase something (no minimum).
Use the code of SINGLET when checking out for your 15% and no charge Lifting Straps.
(don't add the lifting straps to your cart,....we'll simply send them with your order)
so buy anything you want get 15% off and free pair of straps. delivery when ive used them is very quick, within the week normally.

I love the fact you refer top Phil as "APT REP" so true!!! The dollar is cheap atm though so not such a bad option...
no seriously. when i did an order it cost £30 all in for sleeves, wraps, straps and a tshirt. no import tax either. marked as gift.

that was before.
didnt pay a thing for my first batch of kit :029:
Guys don't forget despite Phil being an ATP Bitch, he's also a top bloke. I doubt he would suggest something that was shit. I'd imagine if ATP did something he considered shitty he’d probably tell us so.
Despite being happy with my McDavids i'd go for Rehband. They're without a doubt king of the neoprene world.
he's also a top bloke.quite probably true, but wheres the fun in that?
he's still welsh, bald, and has a poor excuse of a ginger beard thing.
Ah... feel better already.
at least i can grow it though hey. still using the same one you had for your 16th?
Do ATP only do the 'Thick Heavy' sleeves now? The site is highly confusing.
The site is highly confusing.
I agree, not very well thought out.
hmm, looks like it actually. they aint that thick though mate. i dont get any help from mine, if thats what you mean.

I`ve got a pair the same as narc,some pro sports &
a set of Rhebands.
I dont notice much difference between any of em <buff>

Belt arrived yesterday, so ordered Monday received thursday. £39 for an APT single prong 10mm belt with recorded delivery included in the price, can't say fairer than that and a lot easy than ordering from the states.
(Although Phil tells me the knee wraps are a bit pricey)
I ordered some knee sleeves and nose tork off that site yeterday and received them today. Fantastic service :)
I love my new APT knee sleeves! The don't slip down at all like those argos crap I had, and they kept my knees nice and warm throughout my whole session tonight.
what size you got steve? my ones atm are getting a bit uncomfortable.
are yours snug or tight cause i know your similar weight to me?

I've got the XL ones mate. They're quite tight tbh, tighter than i'd like, but heaps better than the loose argos shite I had, which kept falling down. I'm happy with my new ones, and I'd choose tight over loose any day of the week, and I'm not just talking about knee sleeves here either:112: ;)
hmmm, yes.. teenlove.
dont mean to sound gay, but do me a favour, full flex your quads and hams and measure about an inch or 2 above your knee for me. i got the L and they seem to be slipping alot, so maybe a bigger size needed.
if it helps, i got XL sleeves but a L belt

Ok, but only because it's you!:050:
2 inch above my knee is 22", and my knee cap is 18".
When you say yours are slipping, do you mean because they are so tight it won't even go over your knee cap properly? The argos one's are like that at the bottom, and very loose at the top.
thanks mate. yeah, they go on but during training ahve to pull them up... will get an xl pair pronto.
Pkpit- Roughly how much is shipping from ATP, and is that 'SINGLET' code still valid? Think it may actually be cheaper to order stuff i want from the states. Cheers.
For anyone that's interested ^^^ that code is still valid and even with postage it was about a tenner cheaper for me to order, sleeves, wrist wraps and straps straight from ATP.
sorry jb, only just seen this, guess you dont need an answer anyway.
cant remember how much that discount was for, but theres another one for 10%, which is 10DISCOUNT, ..for those interested, shipping for the list below was $40, so bout £20.
XL Thick Heavy Knee Sleeves
XL Double Ply Convict Knee Sleeves
XXL APT Powerlifting Singlet
2" APT Plate Holder
APT Atlas Stone Sleeves Large
XXL APT T-Shirt
XXL Lockout T-Shirt
XXL Good Lift T-Shirt
good value shipping imo.
Based on the advise above. I purchased a large apt knee sleeves from extremesupplements.co.uk. It came next day in the post, so no complaints there!!
Very impressed on the apt sleeves though, it is very heavy duty to say the least, I got a large ( my bw is around 210lbs btw) and they're quite tight and good for weights, but too tight for cardio I reckon, I'm thinking of getting an xl large for cardio use or is that an overkill, do they stretch much??
No worries man, I was gonna PM but got the newsletter thing mailed to me. Yeah worked out at 15 quid postage for me so the entire order was £30.
You reckon you get anything outta thos double ply sleeves out of interest?
ill let you know when they arrive. from previous experience i rekon they'll be alot different. ive got two pair of wrist wraps one a regular sort of material the other is the top of the range model, the difference is rediculous.
pick- ive been using the large for ages and also find them tight especially around lower quad area, ill let you know what my xl are like in comparison when they arrive.
thanks mate, I ordered the xl bout 15 mins ago :029:
Also, wtf, doubly ply knee sleeves is just silly.
possibly, but hey i ain't paying ;)
haha, bastard. I'm not too sure how I feel about them either, but i'm still interested to see if they make a difference.

Coolio. Might just have to put an order in with APT then.
I'm after;
Wrist Wraps
Lifting Belt
No idea of which are decent....?
Might get one of those ab slings too:040:.
Damn, wish I wouldn't have looked in this thread it's got me spending money again...
I ordered the 'Thug' wrist wraps cos i just wanted a bit of extra support for snatches and jerks, nothing too heavy duty. Will let you know when i get them.
range is here in order LA
http://www.prowriststraps.com/wrap_use_chart
i got the black mambas and the strangluators. as i said previously, loads of difference between the two. but then i think the top 2 on that chart (strang and XH) are really heavy duty. i only use 12" wraps.
Only just about managed to get the XLs on! Knees felt quite good in them, a million miles better than the dross you get in chemists and such.
Hmmmm, i got the mediums, hopefully they're not too small, I'm well within the recommended weight bracket for them.
I've still not recieved the stuff from ATP i ordered on the 11th, aparantly there were some problems along the line. It only got dispatched on the 23rd which i'm not overly impressed with.
same as me mate. not the norm if im being honest, have you had the usps email, normally comes in a matter of days after that.
Got them now. Sleeves are TIGHT, they feel solid though and should be fine with a bit of stretching. Wraps are the 'THUG' 12' and they are pretty heavy duty too, probably more than i need, but should keep wrist pain at bay with snatches and jerks. I used the 'singlet' discount code and expected a set of straps too which i didn't get.
M sized knee sleeves are too tight for me, not too bad for squats but the are pretty uncomfortable and hurt when in a bottom clean position, also one is harder and significantly less stretchy than the other :017:
thought they'd be too small. sizing is a bit odd i find with alot of american stuff. my xl belt from inzer is used on the last 3 notches, obviously a large wouldve been better.
My sleeves were very tight when I first got them, but the have now loosened up a little, and that is just from wearing them each session.

Yea M would definately be crazy tight The thing about these sleeves is that they are just too damm tight, even the next size up for me xlarge is almost just as tight as large haha, usually people try and go for the smaller size with normal shitty knee sleeves so you can get them snug. You won't get away with that here. I would even suggest going one size up.

I mailed them about the lack of straps and thry're sending some out.

Agree mine have loosened up loads
Mine too now, after alot of stretching they've gone from giving me pins and needles in my calves to being slightly tighter than perfect. Hope they last as I really can't be arsed breaking in another set.
got my kit today, so pending todays wellbeing of my back (bad sleep last night) i will let you know how the single ply sleeves go.
New kit checked out.
Stone Sleeves - these are a no go, dont go on easy and are poorly designed. got a tub of tacky though.
Singlet - i assume as al singlets, tuck your head in its shell and squeezes your balls. def wearing a t-shirt under this.
New Lockout gear T shirt - looks smart.
Sleeves - feel tighter than my L pair so need to break them in, the single ply ones are hella thicker, and just as tight, will give em a try and report back.
2" loading pin - top stuff.
super super heavy sleeves - awsome, much better than the super heavy and imo offer no extra oomph, which i thought they would. so imo a good thing, ive got wraps for oomph. my knees feel warmer and way more safe, i think they allow more bloodflow too, it feels like that anyway. def be wearing these more i think.
Are they noticeably thicker? I'm pretty chuffed with my sleeves now, they've stretched out nicely, are they as hard to break in?
noticeably thicker yes, but id say equal to break in. i wouldnt go buy a pair if you got the others though.
Nah i'm not about to, was just interested tbh.
