Knee Support with Open Patella by MCDAVID is a neoprene knee sleeve with an open patella design, intended for wear during sport, training or daily activities when basic mechanical support around the knee is needed.
This sleeve style suits active users who prefer a simple pull-on support that can be put on and taken off as needed.
The sleeve is made from elastic neoprene with an outer layer of nylon fabric. The open section sits over the patella to help keep the support correctly positioned during movement. The materials provide a close fit that delivers compression and warmth around the knee. Size is selected by measuring the largest part of the knee directly over the kneecap while standing with the leg bent at just under 45 degrees.
Place the sleeve so the opening sits over the patella. After use, remove it and air it out; hand-wash if needed and leave to dry naturally.
What is the difference between an open patella and a closed patella knee sleeve?
An open patella sleeve has a cut-out over the kneecap that helps positioning during movement, while a closed patella sleeve covers the kneecap fully.
Can this knee sleeve be worn during heavy squats and gym training?
Yes, this latex-free neoprene knee sleeve is designed for sport and training, so it can be worn during heavy squats and general gym workouts.
How do I prevent the knee sleeve from sliding down during movement?
Choose the correct size by measuring knee circumference as instructed and position the opening directly over the patella to maintain a close, secure fit.
