When looking to buy a knee compression sleeve or knee wrap, it is important to select one based on your need, whether it is to manage pain caused by an injury or for instability protection during sporting activities. Knee sleeves come in many different forms and materials and can provide the compression and support you need without the added bulk of a larger knee brace.

Neoprene knee compression sleeves are ideal for sports like basketball or weightlifting. Neoprene knee wraps help keep the muscles warm and limber during activity. Donjoy offers knee sleeves made of Drytex, which is a great alternative for those allergic to neoprene. Drytex is durable and breathable which helps keep your knee cool and comfortable. Elastic is another great option for those looking to stay cool and receive the same support. Both Drytex and Elastic knee wraps are great for running and cycling. For additional support, you can look at a knee compression sleeve with Velcro straps, which keeps the sleeve from slipping down and is ideal for high-impact sports.
Knee pain is uncomfortable and inconvenient. When your knees ache it's harder to get around. What causes knee pain? In some cases, repeated stress or overuse. For example, runners who "overdo" it may be sidelined by knee pain. It can also be a chronic problem. One of the most common causes of chronic knee pain is arthritis. Knee pain is usually associated with inflammation. That's why doctors often recommend treatments that decrease inflammation. They may also recommend a knee brace in some cases.
Do your knees hurt when you walk, climb stairs or get up from a chair? Ask your doctor if a knee brace can help. Adjustable knee supports made of neoprene wrap around sore or injured knees to give them added support and protection. Neoprene is a type of rubber that firmly but comfortably cushions and supports painful, inflamed knees. You can customize the degree of knee compression using the easy-to-adjust tension band that hooks above your knee cap for maximum support and comfort. These adjustable supports are easy to care for and can be safely hand washed in cool water.
Knitted knee braces are another option. Made of a soft elastic material, they're easy to take on and off. Simply step into the opening and slide it over your knee. The elastic material gently supports your kneecaps and the muscles above and below. Wearing this comfortable knee brace, you can carry out your normal activities without fear of it sliding off. Whether you have knee discomfort from a sprain or overuse or chronic knee pain due to arthritis, a knitted knee brace may give your achy knees the added support and comfort they need.

The strap applies pressure to the tendon just below the kneecap to reduce inflammation. This lets you carry out your normal activities with less pain and discomfort.
