I initially bought this neoprene sleeve because I had a McDavid neoprene sleeve and thought it was pretty good for light knee injuries (i.e. light strains or sprains that are mostly recovered) for my good knee since we all know that when one side of our body is jacked up we routinely consciously or subconsciously change how we use the injured part and then it can lead to the other side getting a little out of whack. I tried it on my "better" knee and mostly liked it. At my follow up doctor's appointment I was advised I could try moving to this type of light protection sleeve since I had been in PT for several weeks now and done a nice job of building up strength and stability. NOTE: My appointment with an orthopedist is still pending authorization but my MRI showed a "frayed" meniscus with some tendonosis above the knee. I decided to keep this one on my "good" knee and try a new age modern gel longer sleeve on the "bad" knee. I will focus on this neoprene McDavid below but also mention some things about the other style where relevant.
Here are my observations (based on using it on my "better" knee:
-- I can't recall my number but I used a metal tape measure which wasn't ideal anyway. It put me clearly in the LARGE size and since I owned a similar McDavid in the past and it was a LARGE, I went with large. I bought a vinyl tape measure on Amazon along with this sleeve for easier future measuring. I am 6' 1/2" tall and I weigh 181 pounds. My build is a blend of mesomorph and ectomorph. I ran cross country in junior high and got into baseball and basketball and weight lifting (build muscle pretty easily). It fit fairly snug but I think a medium would likely have been a mistake and too tight because my quads aren't small. If I recall correctly I wasn't barely in the "large" so that is the reason for my logic.
-- It is fairly appealing looking and the thickness of it provides LIGHT support with a "gentle" lean toward moderate.
-- I wish it were longer as that might have helped with the slipping and sliding. As the day wore on I could feel it BUNCHING up behind my knee. I had to occasionally PULL it up on my thigh. It was fine in the calf area and stayed down. With modern "gel" sleeves I think there may be a tendency to have it shift UP off the shin (unless they have gel inserted there also). So this may be an area where it is hard to find a true winner unless you find a double gel product on the top and bottom.
-- In spite of looking fairly tight I think it is only natural with walking and movement for these to move some. It is inevitable. I think the more modern design longer sleeves have a better design idea because they are longer and they often have gel in the top portion so they slide less.
-- It is comfortable when it isn't bunching up but then it is mildly annoying when it gets looser as the day wears on and it bunches up more
All in all, it's pretty decent but I'm thinking I may be in between sizes with this company for an ideal fit. And I am already seeing why most companies have shifted to the modern longer tighter style sleeves with gel inside to help limit "slip sliding away".

Ist aus Neopren, kaum Atmungsaktiv, man schwitzt darunter und es wird schnell unangenehm, würde ich nicht mehr kaufen.
