Bear KompleX Compression Knee Sleeves for Men & Women, Fitness & Support for Workouts & Running. Sold in Pairs-Training, Weightlifting, Wrestling, Squats & Gym Use

This is a knee sleeve, not a brace
I like this knee sleeve very much, because that is exactly what I was looking for — light compression, light support. I have numerous strong compression knee “braces” for walking and exercising. They are thick, black and heavy. That’s not what I wanted. I wanted something that provides moderate support in everyday activities without wearing a brace. That’s what I believe this is. Personally, I wouldn’t use it for heavy exercising like running or even distance walking….but for my purposes (cleaning at home, grocery shopping, puttering in the garage), it is just what I wanted. It DOESN’T have those nasty silicone grips at the top, which is wonderful, and the fabric is warm and comforting. And, it washes well too. And for the price, it’s economical. I think I am going to order another pair. I got what I wanted. UPDATED Oct. 2019. I just ordered 4 more of these sleeves! — and changed my rating from 4 stars to 5 stars. I love this knee sleeve because it DOESN’T have nasty silicone grips that assault my skin. That’s a primary reason. But I also use these sleeve for basic around-the-house mild compression, and they do a great job. In addition, recently I had some calf problems and used it overnight for the tiniest bit of compression on my calf, and it was just perfect. Again — it’s not a brace for heavy running or exercising, BUT it absolutely has some wonderful uses in daily living. I recommend it for that purpose. I now have 6 of these!

What are you looking for?
Purchased these knee sleeves to help adjust my knees to new movements (Squats). I was using powerlifting 7mm knee sleeves beforehand, and have recently switched to weightlifting. 7mm knee sleeves (not these) created resistance and had way better support for loaded movements. Upon using these I realized I could wear them as I was warming up which helped improve warming up of my joints and have had more confidence when it comes to working out. I can leave these on for the whole workout and slide them down with ease when resting. Although I had read that they should not be machine washed, they certainly have held up 2 cycles for me lol. I am very frugal when it comes to purchases, but this one has a good investment, and very functional.

just ok
first of all it’s nowhere near 4mm thick, provide 0 support, it is comfortable and soft which is really not what you want a supporting sleeve to beit’s a decent sleeve for general use like for example to wear during the day to keep the knees warm, walking etc..if you planning on using it for any sport or weight lifting activities skip it and get something more appropriate it stretches a lot and offer no real support and i doubt it will have a long life

Cool, Comfortable and Supportive
So glad that I found this on Amazon. My left knee has been bothersome for the last few months. I have tried the knee brace from the drug store, but it was uncomfortable when I wore it to the gym. I also tried the wrap. It worked. But the Bear KomplexX Sleeves are both comfortable and provide enough support for my weak knee. The only learning curve I had was to pull the sleeve higher on the thigh so I don’t have to keep pulling it up and it stayed where it supposed to be at. And it stays cool throughout my exercises. My friend at my gym class asked how I like it, and I told her I highly recommend it. I told her to look it up at Amazon. I waited two weeks before I write this review to make sure I really like it.

Well made product with good support. Soft bamboo is very comfortable.

Compresión suficiente. Hay que tener en cuenta que no son como las de neopreno para estabilizar fuerte, pero a cambio son muy cómodas.Eso sí, la parte que queda encima de la rodilla tiende a bajarse (al menos a mi).
