Mava SportsKnee Compression Sleeve Support for Men and Women | Ideal for Powerlifting, Weightlifting, Running, Gym Workout, Squats, and Pain Relief…

I had two ligaments shredded about 20 years ago, and successfully emerged from surgery and physical therapy. About a month ago, walking to the mailbox, that knee suddenly started hurting in a way reminiscent of the original injury. I used an ACE-brand knee support as well as a few other brands, but as other users have noted, odor quickly becomes an issue, and it simply wasn't practical or comfortable for all-day use. Enter the Mava Sports support. FAR more comfortable, FAR more compatible with clothing, and flat-out superior to any of the others I've worn. Their sizing guide was spot on, no small feat these days, so the size I ordered fits perfectly. It's very rare for me to be thoroughly happy with any product, so when I am, a positive review is a must.

I’m so glad I bought this for support. I do HIIT training and love to do lower body work out. I dead lift 185 lbs and squats 135-155. I had a slight knee injury to my right knee. I was doing RICE treatment (rest, ice, compression and elevation). It worked but needed something to support and prevent further damage or complication, so I decided to buy this one based on the reviews. It worked perfect and well fitted, stayed throughout my training. Not to compressing that it gives you uncomfortable feeling. My brother had a different support I tried using t at my workout but felt discomfort. The material is soft and sustainable. I even used them for WOD and running outdoor. Love them!

My wife and I both need to wear knee sleeves or braces nearly continuously. We are disabled seniors and have pain and weakness in our knees that make things like standing and walking very difficult. Sometimes impossible! These are the best braces I have found for my wife and myself! They are comfortable and provide excellent support. I generally remove my braces when I go to bed. My wife wears hers 24/7. I have evaluated many braces. Futuro, Mueller, DonJoy, and Ultraflex all make good products, but I have ordered and returned many of their knee braces because they just haven't worked for us. These MAVA knee sleeves are wonderful. My wife and I agree. These knee sleeve are made from bamboo and carbon. Wow! Nothing to irritate our skin like latex or spandex. We ordered the large size in black. The compression level is wonderful for all-day wear. For us, these braces are the solution we need. THANK YOU MAVA SPORTS!

Tried em on as soon as I got the mail. The general fit, as well as the length of these knee braces, is what I've been seeking for some time. Like I've read from other reviews, these can be worn under my pants. I've worn braces that have bulky padding, and they can be visible. These braces seem pretty cool. I could also slide my padded braces over them if needed (baseball playing days are in the past, hardcore playing, anyway). Gratitude for the great design👊. This was posted after I received them.Fast-forward to Friday 5/11/2018As of Friday, upon just wearing these support without any other knee support or braces. I was walking to work by the time I got there, after not even a 10-minute walk the top of the support had slid to below my knees. Initially, upon getting to my post I kept pulling them up, but after maybe 20-minutes, I just left them alone. Unfortunately, I'm in the market, AGAIN, for some durable and withstanding knee support/braces. The thing is, I was usually wearing the supports around the house. Now that we are embarking on warmer months, at times I may do 2.5 or 5-mile walks outside, sliding as I walk would do me absolutely no good.I guess thanks while it lasted, even though it DIDN'T last nowhere near long enough, smh!

These things fit perfect and the added warmth they provide sure help my knees on cold winter days. I wear them all day and hardly notice that I even have them on. One of my knee caps seems to want to float around and these keep it right where it's suppose to be which is the added comfort I was looking for. I will be purchasing these again as needed, I love them!

I was looking for knee sleeves for support at the gym, specifically for squats, leg presses, lunges, basketball, and treadmill sprints. I went ahead and bought these even though I saw no reviews recommending them for these specific activities. After over a month of using them on heavy squats, sprints, and playing basketball I can say they are much better than expected. For this price you won’t find a better pair of knee sleeves. I feel more stable and more confident in my lifts. They probably aren't as helpful as knee wraps, but I don't know for sure because I've never used wraps. But wraps are obviously more cumbersome. Playing basketball in them is nice because they’re not too tight so you have a good range of freedom, and they support me really well when landing hard from jumps.Since they are not too tight they do tend to slip down a bit from the top, but since they’re so thin and stretchable they’re easy enough to pull back into place. They won't slip off your knee half way into a set of squats, but expect to readjust them a bit after every set. You should also expect the white “Mava” lettering at the top to immediately start to peel off. It wasn’t an issue for me, I just took all the letters off as soon as I saw peeling. They look cleaner that way anyway. Also washing them was a breeze. The packaging recommends hand washing, so I just got a big metal bowl with some cold water and detergent to let them sit in for a few hours after scrubbing. They come out good as new. So far I’ve experienced no issues with the stitching coming apart. I’ll update this review if that happens though.

I originally ordered a Medium but they rolled down and bunched behind my knees. On contacting Customer Services regarding this I cannot rate them highly enough on the way I was contacted and assisted. I now have the Small and they are perfect!! I had surgery last October which involved the removal of most of my cartilage in my right knee and confirmed my ACL was completely torn but not repairable, this has also resulted in leaving me with osteoarthritis. Although its been a long recovery I am happy to say these knee sleeves are great for helping support me when out running or performing any impact exercise in the gym, still keeping it pretty low impact at the moment! I'm happy to have them in my life anyway!! Thanks again for your first class customer experience! :)

Excellent product, I was really struggling with my knee clicking all the time due to arthritis but the knee supports have been a God Send and would highly recommend this product & many Thanks.

While they don't provide the same amount of support as the neoprene ones I have, they have two distinct advantages which make them well worth having. They don't tend to ruck up behind the knee and they keep your knee warm but not to the point of sweating. Hence they can be worn all day without issue.

Recently getting knee pain from running so I got these to try to offer support in the gym and for some recent hill walking. They hug the knee well and seem to offer good support, though possibly not gripping as firmly as the white heavy duty ones you get from high street chemists. They stayed in place in the gym and while walking up big hills, where the chemist brought ones I have tried slip down in use. They feel like they are supporting my knee during exercise. These are softer and more comfortable to wear than the Open Patella style with Velcro straps, although I've not yet used the Open Patella support for exercise so I cant compare performance. Pros - they are comfortable, seem to offer support, and the black pair look fine in public. Cons - only one I can see is the lettering peels off, but so what.

I purchased these to nurse a knee injury. For the price I paid for them (in a lightning deal) I'm generally very pleased with their quality. My knees remain warm in these and they appear to add support. I wore these during the day whilst at work just to try to keep the joint warm, and despite the prolonged wear these didn't become uncomfortable or too warm (because of the breathable material).At least in my experience, these aren't ideal for running - they slide down my knee too easily. That could easily be explained by poor fitting, and so I'd recommend anyone who plans on using these for running consider measuring your knee carefully beforehand to find the right size and/or dropping a size if you're unsure.The "Mava" printing on these comes off pretty quickly, but I can't claim to be overly upset by that.
