Mava SportsKnee Sleeves Weightlifting Men & Women, 7mm Neoprene Knee Sleeves for Women and Men, Ideal for Cross Training WOD, Squats, Powerlifting

I'm back to living the gym life after a few years away, and my knees haven't appreciated the wear and tear of putting on a few extra pounds on top of old injuries. I have used wraps in the past, but this is my first pair of sleeves. I found the price point of some of the bigger brands a bit daunting where I wasn't 100% sure what I wanted, so I gave these a shot. I leave them on start to finish for my squat sessions, and my knees love them. Good compression and heat retention, and the support works great moving into heavier sets in the ~1.5x bodyweight range. Fit was true to measurement instructions, and the price point is nice. I think I would personally prefer them to be a little longer, but that's a minor complaint. I turn them inside out to dry outside of my bag after training sessions, and I have had no odor issues so far. Good purchase 👍

These Mava Sports knee compression sleeves are like a hug for my knees – but without the awkwardness of hugging an actual person! I put them on, and suddenly I’m squatting like I'm auditioning for the Olympics. Whether I’m lifting weights, running, or just trying to look cool walking up the stairs, these sleeves keep my knees feeling young and spry.Honestly, they’ve taken my workouts to the next level – I’m practically waiting for someone to ask me if I’m a professional athlete (or at least a part-time superhero). Plus, they don’t slide down like other sleeves, so I don’t have to do that embarrassing ‘pull them up’ dance at the gym. Highly recommend – your knees will thank you, and your friends will wonder if you’ve been secretly training with a pro!

I love the padding and the quality. Unfortunately I will be sending back I couldn’t pull them over my knee.

Update:Part 1-I recently purchased these Mava knee sleeves. I made sure to measure my knee with the directions on the product page. When my sleeves arrived the fitment was perfect, just enough stretch to need to roll them on but onece in place they were perfect. The issue I have that makes the product only one star is during the second set of squats the sleeve got very loose. When I looked at it, the stitching down the back of the sleeve had completely pulled apart. I’d hope this was a fluke but after several years of powerlifting I finally bought a set on recommendation and couldn’t even get through a set before they broke.Part 2-Customer Service:Mava customer service is one of the best experiences I have had with any customer service in as long as I can recall! Once they heard I had an issue, they contacted me the next day! The replacement sleeves were on their way to my house before the ink was dry on my return label. They showed genuine concern for the issue with their product as well as my opinion. I sit right in between sizes based on their sizing chart and they recommend moving up a size if you are on the high end. They made sure I was aware of the correct method of measuring and replaced the defective sleeves without question.Product:My Mava knee sleeves fit well, not quite as snug as I’d prefer but they don’t slip up or down with use so I am pleased with the fit. The feel of the sleeve is solid and stitching is more durable this time. The sleeves do exactly what they are made for during a lift, my knees stayed warm and loose with no discomfort whatsoever.Thank you Mava Team for your prompt attention and genuine concern for your product and your customer! I look forward to many more lifts with these sleeves! My only regret is that I left them home when I went snowboarding for the first time, I could have used the extra warmth and cushion!

Fits snug but you have to measure exactly. These are the best knee pads I’ve ever used for working out. They are a little thick and snug but don’t slide down or curl down at the top of the knee. They feel comfortable while supporting the knees during a workout. I would recommend.

These knee support braces are absolutely outstanding with great customer care. And, the price is $30 less than other identical braces from other top companies. In fact, I loved them so much I bought a second pair! I wear one on my right knee all day and simply add the second when lifting heavy at the gym. By the way, my knees measure large size (14.6”) yet bought medium. I love the way they fit—not too tight at all! The customer service is so good that they even included a tape measure so we can measure before buying other items! Wow, I’m impressed with the little details. I will definitely shop for their other products. Buy them you won’t be sorry!

I purchased these sleeves about 5 months ago and they are great! They provide fantastic compression and support while lifting. I have had 3 surgeries on my left knee and these allow me to squat heavy with no pain. I use the sleeves 4-5 times a week and I do a mix of powerlifting and crossfit. I usually squat heavy about twice a week so these get used very often.Two major issues:1) The sleeves have started to come apart at the back seem. Reading through the comments, this seems to be a common trend. I have never machine washed them (just as the directions prescribe) and only hand wash them with hot water and gentle detergent about once a week. It's unfortunate that they have already started to come apart, because they really are great sleeves.2) This one might be my own fault for not measuring correctly, but the sleeves have a tendency to ride down my thigh and I am constantly pulling them back up. The lower part of the sleeve stays in place, so the sleeve kind of "scrunches" down over time. Not a huge deal, but the sleeve loses compression as it moves down, so after a sustained amount of movement I am constantly tugging them back up. Again, it's possible that I didn't get the correct size, but I can't imagine going much smaller in size and being comfortable.In the end, I'm glad I bought these as "starter" sleeves, but ultimately I am going to upgrade and get a higher quality sleeve once these completely come apart. I don't want to have to buy new sleeves every 6 months.
