Are these sleeves comfortable enough to wear all day, not just for workouts? I have two bad knees and looking for sleeves for all day use.

I only wear while walking or working out and it is quite comfortable. It doesn't breath well due to the neoprene so I wouldn't want to wear all day.

My wife says no because of the compression aspect. If you went a size larger maybe not so bad.

Unfortunately, I have only used for crossfit sessions so not sure if comfortable for all day use. I would think that they should be but cannot say 100%t that they would be comfortable for all day use. I had ACL reconstruction on both knees and so far best knee braces yet for me.

I wear one because my knee was taken out by an accident. I do not wear them everyday, but when I do they help and they do no harm.

Donna, I have fat knees and thighs and those that slip over the knee roll and cut off the circulation in my knee. This one stays in place for me. It has three straps that you can tighten. I wear them for teaching Aqua Zumba and they work great for me.

I would like to know too. I did the first pair in a regular wash, with other clothes, getting the raveling results I sdpoke about. Wish the company (Amazon and/or the company that makes the sleeves) could provide suggestions/answers for us.

From a "functional" perspective, I would say that they can be worn everyday without stretching out -I wear mine usually over night several times per week for recovery and they've kept their shape and elasticity well. I can't speak to whether this is medically appropriate however since these are designed for fitness use, rather than medical use -I would recommend talking with your doctor if you have concerns in this area.

That is why I bought them but then started working 6 days a week and haven't used them regularly. When you have them on, your arms really sweat underneath them. I feel they will would work fine if you use them every day. I intend to test that theory starting next month!

I think so. I have to get on my knees sometimes for my work and these really save my knees. Hope this helps.

yeah they are bit big, but its worth to buy and try out. If it fits you can use these for long time as they seem to be of good quality. Or you can use the elbow pads as the knee pads initially.

Take a look at the sizing chart for the knee sleeves. They go pretty small. If they are still too small you could try the elbow sleeves. But having both, they are slightly different in shape and feel.

Sri, I won't recommend that. They are tight enough but are not meant for active work out.

I wouldn't use a wrap for arthritic knees, I would opt for getting a neoprene type knee sleeve. It will be more comfortable and stay put when you have it on, these aren't for wearing for long periods of time, they are to be worn very tight and only looped around your knees for weightlifting support.

1 sleeve per package, which I believe is your question. Get 2 if you need one for each knee, they do help if you buy them nice 'n snug, so they almost feel too small.

Both. They slide on with a sleeve that has holes/perforations and a small cut to accommodate flexed position of your knees. I personally think the cut behind the knees should be bigger Overall they are great kneepads for protection and being low-profile.

My knee is of similar size and have fairly thick thighs as well as large calves. This sleeve is very comfortable as far as size and I have never had an issue of slipping. My knee brace is the same size and you just need to make sure it is secured as it should be. Too loose and you lose your support anyway.

This product is great for everyone. These are not bulky so not only did I use them working out I wore them under my pants at work. In my job I tend to hit my knees a lot with the nature of my job. I searched high & low could not find product that was not hard and banded for around the knee support.

only if its not put on correctly, mine sits comfortable to give me extra support on my knees. It certainly doesnt compare to the Orthapedic Brace which is designed to imobalise the knee. I want to still bend and walk so this is just fine for everyday.

I use my sleeves for golf. Mornings have high humidity (>80%) and they provide some cooling. My primary reason for wearing them is the UV protection (recommended by my doctor) and the fact that they keep the sweat from running down to my hands. Once they become saturated, they provide cooling with the wind. I enjoy my sleeves and wear them almost daily.
