Unlike a knee brace this compression sleeve gives you easy movement and a full range of motion. /it is thin and lightweight. It has no stays in it to keep your knee from moving like an actual brace. It is breathable but does kind of trap your own body heat in order to loosen up the joint and lets you move easier as well as helping fight pain. I do not sweat overly while wearing it. I would say the support is above minimal, maybe a medium, since it is not restrictive.
There are a gel like strips around the top and bottom bands to keep it from slipping down or riding up. It is comfortable to wear all day or even at night while sleeping. It can be put in the wash machine but hand washing and hanging to dry would probably make it last longer.
There is only one sleeve in the package so if you have pain in both knees you will want to order another one. The one I have is size medium, you will want to order the right size or they wont correctly. If you are very small these may slide down or ride up. If you are large the elastic bands may cut into your legs and lessen the blood flow which would keep this sleeve from doing it's job.
Check it out on Amazon
I received this product for free or at a discounted price in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
