Slingshot Knee Sleeve 2.0 by Mark Bell

Using these sleeves have helped me tremendously in my squats and have also helped me in my deadlifts. They stay in place and don't bunch up like other pairs I have tried. I have been using these same sleeves for quite a few months now and I squat and deadlift at least twice a week and they are still holding up strong.

I had to return these as they were too small even after measuring my leg. Could not get them up past my calves. I don't have ginormous calved wither. Bummer...

Been powerlifting since i was 17, now 27. I've used elitefts knee sleeves and rehbands and all sorts of knee wrap brands. These slingshot knee sleeves are incredible. Not too stuff at all, bery comfortable actually but i did order an XL even thiugh my knee circumference was in the "L" range. I would order a size up for daily use and maybe the exact size for a contest or big PR day. I hit an easy PR the forst time i wore these and couldve easily jumped another 20lbs on that pr. Highly, highly recommend these, both to help with tendonitis and to prevent it as well.

I was really enjoying these sleeves until they ripped at the seam. I purchased these to replace a pair of 5mm Rehbands that I had for nearly 3 years. These only lasted a few months. I really liked the way they fit and felt. I like the additional length but cannot justify buying another pair if they just cant hold up. I will most likely go with a 7mm Rehband to replace these.

Great knee sleeves. A little thick and can develop quite a bit of sweat, but overall these knee sleeves will provide enough support to your exercises.

Bought these for my training partner. He's 6'5" and 257#. The XXL fit him perfectly! Prior to getting these, he was wrapping his knees with ace bandages! When these arrived, he was in awe on how good his knees felt, and how much support they give during his heavy (500#) squats!I have a pair, myself, and I suggested that he get these! He wasn't disappointed!I highly recommend these knee sleeves to anyone who's competing, or just wants extra support and warmth in their knees while working legs!

I started a program where I squat 5x a week. I noticed my quads just above the knees started feeling like jelly after 3 months. A friend of mine suggested I try his Rehbands for a set. Wow, it was day and night. I definitely felt support, and, after reading around the internet, bought myself a pair of these Slingshots. It comes in a pair, and feel like quality material. Some reviews mention a smell, but it was nothing that was overpowering or bothersome for me.What it did give me was more confidence to add more weight, and that extra rep in subsequent workouts. I wouldn't say you *need* these to squats, much like you don't need lifting shoes or a belt, but these items have all definitely allowed me to "go for it" because of the support I felt.Please mind your form at all times, though. I can see how people may start relying on their gym gear (no not that kinda "gear"). That being said, I don't think I can go back to not wearing these for any lower body workouts. Drank the Kool-Aid on this one

I think for the average person this would be a 4 or 5 star product, It should be more 3.5 stars. I do recommend it for those that don't have muscular legs or more average builds. The problem I had is the same problem I've always had with any knee sleeve, the diameter of the top part that goes over the bottom of your quadriceps and middle of your vastus medialis isn't much larger than the diameter of the part around your knee. My knee measures about a 33.5-34cm, where as my lower quad measurement is about 55-56cm. So when I move around in this sleeve it scrunches down pushing the knee part towards my calve. The bottom is nice and snug on the top of my calve so it does continue to apply knee pressure but not as much as when I first put it on. If used while lifting you can pull it up between sets and it works great. But i use it more throughout the day under dress pants. It does work and help, but I have to keep pulling the top back up, or just roll it down over the top part of my knee. I'd love if they sold different types of these knee sleeves, a set for people with muscular legs would be great.
