Copper Fit Pro Series Knee Compression Sleeve

Fits well and provides excellent support.

So I purchased this item for my right knee due to pain I suffered when I was playing softball. I jammed my knee into the base while sliding and it hurt. After a few days of ice and anti inflamatories, I went to see the doctor and had some imaging done and was told i have some arthritis in the joint. Doc told me to get some therapy and a brace and see how that helps. I received this brace last week and it does a great job supporting the knee while I am wearing it and the pain does decrease but it is still there. This does not appear to be a curative feature for me and I really am not expecting it to do that. It is offering support and it is lessening my pain so that's the good part. I am giving this item a 4 because I am not sure if this item can only help me with the pain and support or would other braces to the same thing. Either way I have worn this for a week now. There is no copper smell from it. The Item itself does not have any body odor to it. But I am perplexed in the "copper tape" that one so prominently sees around the top and bottom of the knee. It feels like a tape, and I do not notice any other copper in the knee brace. The compression brace is a bit thicker then a nylon and has some stretch to it, so I am not sure how or where this copper is. I have yet to wash this brace but when i do it will be hand washed and hung to dry.

Got this because I started to have issues with my other knee. Due to stupidity I fell sideways but my foot was stuck and I bent my knee laterally. Yikes!! Went to ortopedic MD and scans shopped that I had no connective support for the outside of the knee cap and was scheduled for a knee replacement. Enter the age of cover and the surgery is off until there is a vaccine or treatment if I should get infected. Hence, I am trying to get around on a very unstable knee. I had another knee support but it was uncomfortable and by the end of the day my leg was really swollen and I had deep indents where the top band had dug into the swollen leg. So I decided to try a different brand to see if it worked better. I got the copper Fit Compression knee sleeve and the difference is profound!! My knee is so much better supported, my leg has not swollennear as much and I forget that I even have it on. It is as though there is nothing there, yet it provides MUCH superior support. At the end of the day my leg is better and muchless swollen. I am amazed that it works this well and yet is not bulky or as constricting as my previous knee sleeve. If you need a knee support, get this one!

Have been using it for about 2 weeks now . Good product - comfortable to wear . Gives a right mix of support and flexibility.However over last two days I see it slip a little so looks like it is getting a little loose. So durability may be an issue .

I was hit by a truck when I was 17 years old. Among other injuries my right knee cap (patella) was crushed. I have only had 2/3 of knee cap and it reminds me everyday. I was on crutches for most of the 11th grade. I have been living with this pain for the last 25 years. Some days are worse then others, and those who are close to me know i don’t complain about the pain, but if I am then the pain is really bad. Every day, all day I have some sort of pain, lounging around makes it worse and a lot of times I have grab my leg and straighten it out because I can’t move my leg.I am telling you all this story so you know that the pain I have isn’t just “I’m getting old pain” although i am getting old and the pain is getting worse as I get older, I started looking for relief.First, I HATE pills and I refuse to take them and if i can I’ll avoid them. Maybe once a year the pains just so bad that I have to take something. I started looking into things that might help. I’ve done some research on the Copper Fit brace the technology makes sense but I was still skeptical but I got it and been wearing it for about 2 weeks now. I wore it the first day and My knee didn’t bother me, but I wasn’t ready to say it works. Wasn’t sure if it didn’t hurt or if something else hurt more and I just didn’t notice it. Like I said this is an everyday thing so it’s nothing for it to hurt and it’s just another normal part of my life. Over the a week or two I tried wearing it off and on to test it. I’m here to tell you that the days I wore it I didn’t have pain and the days I didn’t I had pain. Then yesterday happened and that was the deal sealer, nobody can deny when it gets cold joints start hurting. I wore the brace all day yesterday, when this cold front moved in I felt pain in hands and my left knee (which was injured when I was 14). There was absolutely NO PAIN in my right knee and I am completely sold on this product. If you are in pain and you are a skeptic like me, I’m telling you it’s worth trying it out. Yesterday was a big deal, having pain everyday of my life for almost half of my life, then to not have pain was amazing to me.I have to say it’s the best $15 I’ve ever spent.Only problem I had with it was getting it to stay in place. I am a guy who has a lot of hair and it seemed to fall down repeatedly. Because I am dedicated to finding relief and it wasn’t fair to just throw it to the side because it won’t stay in place, I shaved my leg where the brace will sit. Problem solved and it stays in place and I am SO GLAD I did that and gave this product a fighting chance. 😂 kids make fun of me for shaving my leg, and even more because I only shaved where the brace lays. Yes it looks funny especially because I have a lot of hair so it stands out like a sore thumb, but I’m not in pain so laugh all you want 😂.

First the good part: This brace is well constructed and the kinesio bands do provide some good support. Now the bad: It is a straight sleeve and does not accommodate for the knee bending, so it gets bunched up behind your knee. Plus the seam is rather stiff and runs down the back so it gets crunched up in there, too. Not comfortable at all. Then, the measurement guide is off. Whatever size you think you are based on how they tell you to measure your leg, add about 2 inches and then you'll be closer to the proper size range. Based on their guide I bought a medium and it barely fit. I probably would have been better with a large, and I am a thin person - 5'9" 145#. Last, the product packaging says if it's too loose or too tight you should "adjust it up or down a few inches." If you do this the kinesio bands are not even close to being in the proper position for the intended support and could actually aggravate your knee issue(s).. Overall I am very disappointed. In reality if the product doesn't function the way it is supposed to then it is of no value. I will be returning this. Found a great ACE adjustable knee brace for less than $20 and it is waaaay better.

UPDATE: Most men will seldom admit when they are wrong, but I am not in that category. I ordered a similar compression sleeve from a different source following the same directions for measuring my leg. When it arrived, same problem: I could not get it above my knee. So now I am confused. Measure the knee and it still comes out to 17.5 inches. So then I got a flash. I had been measuring sitting down. Would there be a difference standing up? You bet there was. Standing up it measured a little over 19 inches. (Can anyone explain why it is different?) So now I have ordered the XL and will update again when it arrives. BTW my son loves it and I have upgraded it to 5 stars.*****I was having problems with my knee and figured I could use a compression sleeve. I ordered this one off Amazon. I used my wife’s flexible sewing tape measure and my thigh measured out at 17.5 inches. The photo of the different sizes said 17-19 inches was a large, so that’s what I ordered. While waiting for it to be delivered, I decided to wear my wife’s Tommie Copper compression sleeve. Hers is a large and fit perfectly. When mine arrived, I discovered that I could not pull it up past my knee. I checked the package and it was supposed to fit 17-19 inches, so something is wrong somewhere. Had the wife measure the thigh this time and she got 17.5 inches. And yes we are doing it at the prescribed 5 inches above the knee.I started the return process. The sleeve was lying on the table when my son came over. He saw it and asked if I was using it. I told him no it was too small and I was sending it back. He’s in college to be a physical therapist and a part-time jujitsu instructor. He asked if he could have it. I told him if it fits he can have it. He’s a skinny athletic young man that normally wears a medium. It fit him perfectly.I cancelled the return to Amazon. I was going to order me an XL but saw there was (at that time) an almost $10 price difference. (It’s a little less at the time of this review. Amazon has a habit of adjusting prices.) I’ll just wear the wife’s sleeve for a while.It appeared to be well construction and would probably do the job in the right size. It looks a lot better than some others I have seen. If it had fit I am sure I would have been happy with it. I don't know if their sizing is off or they put the wrong size in the packaging. Either way it kept them from getting a five star review.

I definitely do not recommend these. I have been wearing them through the day just doing regular chores around the house. They constantly slide down my thigh. I have the XXL size. They grip my thighs pretty tightly, but just walking around they work their way down. I am constantly having to pull them back up. I could not imagine using these for working out. I have several other knee sleeves, and they all require much less readjustment even when jogging. If you are just doing regular daily activities and are wearing shorts or something else that gives you constant access, they seem to do a serviceable job of stabilizing the knee as long as they are pulled tight. That is the only reason I am giving them two stars instead of one. BTW, mine are not the counter fits others have posted. These came in the manufacturer branded box and have all appropriate labels inside the sleeve. They also have the silicone on the top and bottom elastic band. I think the issue with these is the material is too thin and the bands do not have enough silicone or other material to grip during movement. The sleeves with thicker material are partially held up by the material as the material gives them some method of keeping their shape. If your sleeve can roll up like a sock, the material is probably too thin. If it retains shape when not on your leg, that is better material for a knee sleeve.

Cariiiisima y las supuestas bandas ya se despegaron! La regresaría pero tiré la caja

This product provides very little lateral or rotational support. It is a very thin material made of polyester, that is more similar to wearing yoga pants on your knee. Do not buy this product.

seems to work. Jury still out

Don't usually expect much out of these scams but this one was a pleasant surprise. I'm 60 years old and was a power lifter in my younger days. Moved over 1500lbs on the leg press machine and did deep squats with 600 lbs. My knees pain on a daily basis. Bought a 2000$ leg brace which didn't help. Tried a lot of knee supports in the last 10 years. Minimal pain relief. Read reviews on this one and thought to myself "what a pile of manure" bought one anyway and have been wearing it on my right leg for the past week or two. It's definitely helping a bit, some pain reduction and can bend my knee a little further without pain. I'm ordering my second one for my left knee today. Can't wait to start wearing it. I know I could just wear the one I already have on my left leg one day and on my right leg the next, alternate back and forth but I want to wear on both knees everyday. The pain relief is worth the 40$

What a great product. I wear it daily and it works well
