401 Knee Sleeve Support

Excellent construction - well made neoprene support for knees - and for swimming. I wasn't sure about the swimming as the description did not mention swimming, but neoprene supports work for swimming, and this did also. I have used it more than five times. Fits very well and unlike others advertised, this has a measurement guide and their grid is accurate, so use it. I ordered a large for a 15 .5 knee measurement and it fits perfectly. It dries easily and keeps it's form. This is a basic grade knee support - no straps and not for heavy injury, but it helped me and I recommend it for anyone starting to get twinges or such in their knees- probably will try it for golf next. Doesn't cure anything but gives an extra measure of support. It also does not slide off in water if you order the correct size.

It really comes down to one thing: the neoprene. McDavid uses a thick—but not too thick—neoprene that simply feels right. When I put it on, it slides into place, warms up my knee, and gives it this supportive “hug” that basically says, go ahead and jump. I’ve tried the Bauerfeind NBA edition, and while it’s a nice sleeve, it felt more like something you’d wear during warmups, not something that actually supports you through real movement. Mueller looked like they were trying to copy McDavid, but the material was barely half as thick and didn’t offer the same confidence or warmth. One more thing worth noting: McDavid was cheaper than the other two. Price wasn’t a deciding factor for me, but it definitely made the win even more clear. Out of everything I’ve tested, McDavid just feels the most secure, the most supportive, and the most ready for actual activity.

I dislocated my patella and have knee pain, and this knee sleeve has been a huge help. It’s comfortable, fits well, and gives me the support I need. I can wear it for hours without it bothering me, even when I’m moving around a lot. It keeps my knee feeling stable and warm, which eases my pain. The material is breathable, so it doesn’t get too hot or sweaty. I’m happy with how much relief I get from this sleeve.

Great compression sleeve for extra support. No gadgets here, straightforward and easy to use/wear. Wash up nicely in the washing machine and hang to dry. Hubby likes them so much we bought him 2 sets. They hold up well too.

I was surprised at how comfotable of a fit this support gives. It took a couple of days to get used to with my swollen knee, but now, I don't feel it at all. The sleeve is true to size. I measured my leg & the guide recommended a medium. I have "thick" thighs and was concerned that the sleeve would be too tight, but the medium works perfectly. It stays on all day & doesn't pinch my skin or get scrunched behind my knee. I've been wearing the sleeve since my knee popped & swelled up, a couple of weeks ago, and this neoprene sleeve gives me great support even when I walk up & down the stairs in my house. I also like that the material molds to my leg and gives the compression I need to help keep the swelling down, without being a big bulky brace that I constantly need to adjust. This was a great choice. I give it a 2 thumbs up.

At first, donning the brace felt fantastic. The neoprene keeps the knee warm (you will sweat underneath, which is a good thing). It provides just the right amount of compression for recovery and healing. The length is also very good (although it could be considerably longer to include the bottom of the quad and calf). However, the seam sewn at the edge overlaps where the vertical seam on the front of the brace folds under the horizontal edge at the bottom, and this causes a severe friction/pressure point. It is so bad that I wore a hole in my calf that began to bleed (like a blister of sorts). I avoid this rubbing by folding the end of the brace up (like the bottom of blue jeans), which keeps that seam from touching my skin. My other gripe is that the brace stretched out a tad bit after the first use. It is still quite serviceable, but it provides a different compression level after the first wear (I wore mine for several hours on first use). Otherwise, this is a very good compression brace for the money and should provide several weeks of use. You may never need to replace it, just be cognizant of the seams and the potential discomfort there.

Summary: Great for swimming and cold weather. Could find an alternative for warmer weather and running. I mostly got this for swimming, which it's amazing for. Absolutely solved my problem (helped prevent lateral movement and insulated my knee from the cold water). Not only did it allow me to continue swimming, but I was able to get to the point where I no longer needed it. This is my main knee brace, which I also use 4 days a week for outdoors workouts that are very dynamic (mostly bootcamp style). Despite the abuse I've put it through (chlorinated water and tough workouts, including knees dragging on ground), it's still in great condition. I absolutely recommend this.

Wrong size for hubby but when I got the right size for him these work really good he has knee problems from construction work he goes up and down stairs and he says it it working for him
