Hourglass Knee Sleeves - IPF APPROVED

A7 Hourglass Knee Sleeves feature an all new Patent Pending design with an hourglass-shaped centre taper fit to help provide centre knee compression while maintaining proper tightness around the calf and quad. Now offered in three unique stiffnesses (Flexi, Stiff and Rigor Mortis) to meet your desired compression both on and off the platform.

We offer the sleeve in our classic stiffness now called Flexi and Stiff that you have come to enjoy in our Cone Knee Sleeves. Hourglass Knee Sleeves also  introduce a new level of stiffness called Rigor Mortis which offer a level of stiffness, density, and squeeze in the calf, quad, and centre knee joint unlike any sleeve before.

How to put on your knee sleeves:

• Fold the top and/or the bottom of the knee sleeve to the outside.
• Put the sleeve on. Once you get to the calf, put your fingers (no thumbs) inside the bottom of the sleeve in a hook-like position. Your fingers should be wedged between your leg and the knee sleeve. Pull the sleeve up until the sleeve is over your knee joint.
• Optional (if the knee sleeve is still too low): Put your fingers (no thumbs) inside the top fold of the sleeve in a hook-like position. Your fingers should be wedged between the two layers of the sleeve. Pull the knee sleeve up.
• Unfold the top and the bottom of the sleeve and straighten the wrinkles.
