NYG Sports Compression Knee Sleeve for Stabilizing and Recovery for Men, Women and Knee Support for Arthritis, Running, Weight Lifting and Jogging, Medium

The media could not be loaded.  I did some research on the different types of knee braces that are on the market, and found this compression knee sleeve to be what I was looking for. After suffering a major injury, not quite needing surgery but weeks of physical therapy, my husband's dr recommended this sleeve for the added support he can use throughout his work day, and also while playing basketball.This sleeve is food for providing moderate levels of support and ideal for:1) Short term use after minor injuries2) Longer term use with ongoing knee conditions causing mild to moderate pain, weakness and instabilityThese knee sleeves are not suitable for severe instability and pain – in those cases you will need an elite level brace.:Reasons we like this particular knee sleeve:1) They fit snugly providing some compression to the knee which helps support the soft tissues (muscles and ligaments)2) They retain heat which increases the circulation to the knee which can help to promote healing, without making you sweat through3) They reduce the forces going through the patella by improving how the kneecap movesHighly recommend this product for anyone who needs some added support, throughout the day, or just for particular activities where you feel more stress on your knee than you should.

Wow, what a relief ....I put this on to go walking, I was going to keep track of how long I could walk before my knee started to give out....(usually 15 minutes is the maximum I can be on my knee before the pain starts and then my knee goes out. I usually have to sit down 2 to 3 times while making dinner). When I got home after walking 25 minutes, I swept the driveway, did 2 loads of laundry, made dinner and vacuumed the living room. (All without pain and without having to sit down even once). It wasn't until I got ready for bed that evening that I realized I was wearing this knee brace. Actually I forgot I was wearing this 5 minutes after putting it on. I do not understand how it can be so comfortable that I forget I am wearing it, and yet it takes the pain away and/or prevents the pain from starting. My knee has not gotten sweaty while wearing this. But then I have not worn it to cut the grass in 85 degree heat yet. But simple outdoor gardening, and walking have not made my knee sweat. LIke I said, I forget I am wearing it, and it makes the pain go away. This may not work 100% all the time for all people, (depending on their pain & the reason behind it), but this brace is wonderful! It's better than pain pills and cheaper than surgery. This is extremely comfortable, very breathable, very lightweight, and very stretchy. I do wish they had this in a neutral beige color, so I could wear it with shorts and not have it show. Did I mention this brace is so comfortable, you will forget you are wearing it 5 minutes after you put it on.

I gave it five stars for the quality and value of the NYG Sports Compression Knee Sleeve(s). I recently purchased another compression knee sleeve and, comparing two together, the NYG is by far superior. The material is thicker and the stitching will properly hold up better. I purchased a medium and the fit was good, not constricting and the support is excellent. Although the description does not indicate that the sleeve comes in a pair, my order came in two sleeves per package. Someone asked if it came in a pair and the manufacturer answered it only comes in a single sleeve. I, therefore, ordered two for a pair, but now I have two pairs. At only ten dollars/pair, I'll keep the extra set for future use.

I ordered this knee sleeve in July 2017 and it's great. So great in fact I ordered it again in May 2018. What I received is not the same outstanding product. The one on the left in the picture is the one I received in 2017. It has an "NYG Sports" logo at the top and rubber inside the top opening to grip the leg to keep it in place. The new one is on the right. No logo, no rubber inside to grip the leg. So it keeps slipping down my leg while I play tennis. It's otherwise similar to the old one with regard to compression, so it's an OK purchase but I will not be buying again.

My first time buying braces/sleeves for the knees, but they did the job they were suppose to. Comfortable and form fitting, I got a medium and it was the tight side for my legs overall. Walking with them was funny (first time remember), so it felt like I had a spring in my step every step I took, haha. The sleeve stayed in place when I was doing leg day, and they didn't irritate my skin after prolonged wearing.Only downside I would say is that this is a package of 1, not 2 Had to order another just to have a full set.

This item does provide support for the knee, but its not as elaborate as some of these other "sleeves" that are out there. It's made of a stretchy cloth like material that reminds me of a premium quality sock. When I used this in conjunction with some other items, it helped my recovery time when I pulled a muscle. It's perfect for what I needed it for, but for more seriously knee injuries or issues, I'm not sure this will do the trick or not. It does help a little with your form when playing sports though. Not too shabby.

This is the best compression knee brace I have ever had. It fits very well. I can feel the difference in between my other one and the one. This one supports my knee much better and tighter in the places it needs to. It's great for anyone with a knee injury or just to use for supporting your knee. It does stretch, but does not stretch out at top or bottom like some I've had. it's thicker than most. I love the colors.

I wore these on the 100 mile wilderness hike in Maine. They were the indispensable for my journey. they do slide down, but not past the knee. All knee supports slide, and I was hiking mountains for 20 miles a day. I was hiking in October and these did trap a lot of heat on my knees, which I believe was a benefit. Very comfortable and supportive. I will use them for Tennis next
