The usual choice
A plain sleeve or a brace full of straps.
A plain knit sleeve is easy to pull on, but it has one fit: the same on the stairs as on the sofa, and it only gets looser with wear. A strap brace holds, but it takes a minute of fiddling and Velcro every time.
So we picked a sleeve that does both. Soft knit you pull on in a second, and a dial on the side for the moments you want more hold.
How it works
Pull it on. Turn the dial. Go.
Pull it on
Slide the sleeve up over your knee, with the dial on the outer side and the ring around the kneecap.
Turn the dial
The lacing draws the sleeve in around the knee. Stop when it feels snug and comfortable.
Get on with your day
Stairs, the walk with the dog, nine holes or a long shift. Set it firmer or softer whenever you like.
No straps, no Velcro.
What is in the sleeve
One sleeve, four parts.
The dial
It sits on the outer side of the knee and draws the lacing in, a little with every turn.
The silicone ring
A soft silicone ring frames the kneecap.
The side stay
A flexible spring runs down the side of the sleeve and bends with the knee.
The knit
Nylon and spandex knit that stretches as you move. Left and right are made as mirror images.
Steady on the stairs.
Who it is for
For people who would rather keep moving.
Stairs and long walks
The trip up to bed, the loop around the lake, the beach path. Set it snug before you go.
Long days on your feet
Nurses, teachers, the shop floor, the kitchen on Thanksgiving. It fits under loose pants.
Golf and the garden
Nine holes, a few games of pickleball, an afternoon in the garden bed. The dial lets you pick how firm.
The pair
One for each knee, in one size and color, for $59. Two pairs are $99.

Questions
Straight answers.
What does the sleeve do?
It wraps the knee in a snug knit sleeve. The dial on the side tightens the lacing, so you choose how firm it sits; a silicone ring frames the kneecap and a spring stay runs down the side. It is support, and 90 days to try it tell you more than any promise.
Is it a medical device?
No. A sleeve is support, not treatment. For an injury, swelling or pain that lasts, see a doctor.
Which size do I need?
The size guide has the maker's measurements: each size laid flat, unstretched. To compare, lay a knee sleeve that fits you well flat and measure across. Between two sizes or not sure? Email [email protected] before you order and we help you pick. If the size turns out wrong, the 90-day guarantee covers you.
Left, right or the pair?
Left and right are mirror images, so the dial sits on the outer side of each knee. One sleeve is $39: pick the knee. The pair is a left and a right sleeve in one size and color for $59.
Can I wear it under pants?
Under loose pants or leggings, yes. The dial sits on the side, so slim jeans may show it.
How do I wash it?
By hand in cold water with a mild detergent, then let it dry flat in a cool place, out of the sun. No washing machine, no dryer, no iron.
When will it arrive?
It ships within 3‑10 business days and arrives within 7‑19 business days of your order, with tracking the whole way. For Christmas, order by November 25 for the best chance.
Why does it ship from China?
Our fulfillment partner's warehouse is in China, close to where the sleeve is made. That keeps the price down. Every parcel is tracked the whole way.
Will I pay customs or duties on delivery?
No. Import costs are paid with the shipping, which is on us. The price at checkout is all you pay.
What if it is not for me?
Email us within 90 days of delivery with your order number. We refund the full price and you keep the sleeve. If it arrives faulty or damaged, we replace it or refund you. See the returns and guarantee policy.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Yes, until it ships. Email [email protected] with your order number and we cancel it for a full refund.
How can I pay?
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal and Link, through Stripe's secure checkout. We never see your card number.
