5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely Needed the Support, November 19, 2010

This review is from: Pro-Tec Athletics Short Sleeve Knee Support (Sports)

I was training for a half marathon and needed support after I injured me knee by having my leg hyper-extend outward (meniscus injury I believe). I couldn't run for weeks and finally succumbed to the notion that I needed a brace if I wanted to run in my race. Luckily, someone else had written a review with her same measurements as I, so I bought what she bought... 5'7", 135lbs, bought a small. Tight squeeze, but comfortable. At first I didn't believe that this brace could actually give me support for running, but it magically did. I was able to run for miles and not feel pain, and I performed my half marathon easily. The only thing I did not like about the construction of this brace was the crease line on the back of the knee...my knee bends and then inevitably rubs against this crease creating some discomfort, but nothing like feeling the pain in my knee. Definitely small and not bulky, which was another main reason I bought this brace. It absorbs a lot of your sweat, so after a 13 mile run it is indeed wet. Right after I am done running and walking to cool down, I flip the brace down to my ankle and eventually take it off. WORTH IT!

3.0 out of 5 stars Provides warmth and compression, but does not provide support for patellar, August 13, 2010

Bought these to run with since I developed osgood schlatters at a young age and have had bad knees since. They worked well for light workouts but didn't provide the patellar stability that I needed as they mostly supported the upper knee region to the thigh. Would recommend for those who need very light support but definitely not for more severe knee problems or for stability when playing lateral movement sports like basketball or tennis.

This review is from: Pro-Tec Athletics Short Sleeve Knee Support (Sports)

I've never used a knee support before this one, but I can't get over how perfectly it works!! I hurt my knee about 3 weeks ago (runner's knee) and quickly ordered this when I still couldnt walk without a limp a week later. The product came sooner than expected and worked wonders; I could walk normally when wearing it and, after a few days of that, I didn't need support anymore! Now I just wear this when running. It's comfortable, easy to put on, and really effective. I would highly reccommend this to anyone looking for help recovering from a knee injury. I'm about 5'7 140 and the size S fit well (really tight, but it needs to be).
