I heard you should order your knee sleeves a size or two down. Is that true?Updated 9 months ago
Generally, no. Compared to other brands SBD knee sleeves don’t stretch much and are therefore much harder to get on. If the sleeves are too small you won’t be able to get them on or even worse they get damaged in the process of trying.
Sleeves that have been damaged by trying to squeeze into a size that is obviously too small will not be exchanged or refunded.
The sizing chart is very accurate so please order according to it. If your calves are much bigger than your knees please use your calf measurement to choose as this is the part the sleeves have to pass to get over your knees. We know that everyone likes a snug fit on their knee sleeves and we want you to get the size that provides your desired support and protection of your knee joint. So if you’re not sure just send us an email, a Facebook message or give us a call and we will sure be able to help you find the right fit!
