Elastic Knee Sleeve
DonJoy
Engineered for athletes who demand lightweight support.
The sewn-in silicone donut and spiral stays deliver targeted patellar stabilization and medial/lateral support, ideal for mild knee discomfort, chondromalacia, or patellar tendonitis.
Its breathable, elastic cotton construction ensures comfort during daily activities, making it suitable for both rehabilitation and preventive use.
The Elastic Knee Sleeve can be used to treat or prevent the following knee injuries:
- Targeted Patella Stabilization
- Tendonitis
- Chondromalacia
- Lateral Support
✕
Find the Right Fit:
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, leg muscles gently flexed.
- Place measuring tape flat against the skin (not tight). Measure leg circumference at:
- 6 inches above kneecap
- Center of kneecap
- 6 inches below kneecap
- Use chart to find your size. If you land between sizes—or if thigh and calf measurements suggest different sizes—choose the larger option.
A correctly sized brace will feel comfortably snug and supportive without being excessively tight.

Product Questions
I've been diagnosed with bursitis in my knee due to a fall. What would be the best type of brace to use?
Question by: Sonia on Apr 26, 2016, 8:20 AM
You should get a knee sleeve for compression to the area. The AnaForm Warming Sleeve would be appropriate

I had ACL, medial lateral menicus surgery almost 4 years ago. I hardly wear a brace because its always felt good but lately its been swollen and clicking a bit. I have a brace with hinges but its kind of bulky. Will a sleeve brace help or should I use the bulky brace. I'm a UPS driver so i walk a lot. Thanks

Hello Michael,
Do you have Osteoarthritis? Typically someone who has had a meniscus injury will develop OA. What has your Physician suggested?
We have some options for you. I recommend a Hinge Brace to support the Meniscus, you can chose from a Soft Hinge or a Rigid Hinge Brace. Or you have the option of an OA rigid brace. Below find the links.

My daughter is a level 9/10 gymnast. Her left knee began hurting during her state meet last year. Referral to an orthopedic specialist who had an MRI ordered showed that there was no structural damage to her knee, just a buildup of fluid beneath the patella as well as to the side. Rx strength Naproxen, rest, ice, knee sleeve (not the DonJoy), glucosamine/chondroitin supplement, and increase in leg conditioning to build up the front of her quadraceps were ordered. When that did not signifcantly decrease the swelling, she received injections of Depo Medrol and lidocaine directly into the fluid filled areas which seemed to do the trick. Pain returned 4 months later and she still does not have structural damage to the knee. She is no longer wearing her knee sleeve as she says it doesn't work. My guess is that after 6 months, the sleeve may have stretched to the point it isn't supporting the knee. Would the DonJoy knee sleeve be a better solution for a knee sleeve? While her knee has improved, it isn't 100% yet and may not be as we are starting another gymnastics season. My goal is to find a way to use a sleeve along with her other routines prescribed to her (see above) to allow her to add support to her knee. As a junior in high school, she doesn't want to ruin chances of upcoming college scholarships or give up all she has worked for in the past 10+ years.

Diane,
The DonJoy is the leading brand among orthopedic bracing, it is a good option when choosing any brace. All the knee sleeve on Betterbraces.com have a 6 month warranty, so if you choose a sleeve that doesn’t holdup over that period, it will be replaced at no cost to you. That being said, the DonJoy Spiral Elastic Knee Sleeve may be a good option for your daughter, as it has an open patella. The DonJoy Performer Knee Support Brace is a neoprene option that would work well also. Thank you for your question and best of luck in the upcoming gymnastics season!

I am considering a DonJoy Elastic Knee Sleeve. My knee measurement does not fit the range for thigh and calf measurements. Thigh 18 3/4", Knee 16 1/2", Calf 13 3/4". What size do I need? Or would this not work for me?
Question by: Ro on May 18, 2014, 8:19 PM
According to your measurments you should try the medium

I need knee support and also knee padding to protect from kneeling on a hard floor. Will this support do the trick?
Question by: Efrain on Mar 24, 2016, 10:09 AM
Try the Spider knee pad instead
