Powerlifting Knee Sleeves
The SBD Powerlifting Knee Sleeves are designed for competitive powerlifters looking for the maximum support from their sleeves.
They allow for significantly greater compression throughout knee flexion to maximize support and confidence during maximal attempts, increasing top end performance.
- Sold as a pair.
- IPF approved and USAPL and IWF compliant with the maximum allowable 30cm length.
- High grade, high density 7mm neoprene offers maximal compression and surface contact area throughout knee flexion.
- Enhanced four-way stretch allows the neoprene to stretch during fitting and maintain compression all around the knee joint throughout the lift with no gapping.
- Heavyweight linings, edging and seams designed to hold up to even the most aggressive fitting.
- Antimicrobial treatment minimizes the build up in bacteria and reduces odor.
- Patented design.
- Made in Sheffield, Great Britain.

If you are new to wearing knee sleeves we recommend going with the recommended fit instead of sizing down, especially if you fall on size medium or smaller.
We recommend hand washing your knee sleeves with water or a mild detergent (or a specialist neoprene/wetsuit detergent), then allow the sleeves to air dry standing up.
The spin cycle of a washing machine can damage the sleeve, as the knee sleeves become quite bulky when wet and can potentially get caught up or damaged by wringing. High heat from a washing machine or a dryer will degrade the rubber in the sleeves (potentially causing shrinkage or brittleness).
good gift
These knee sleeves absolutely the best on market, hold your knee tight and work as sturdy springs. Thanks for your quality!
I’ve tried only 3-4 different kinds of knee sleeves but I was so impressed with the sbd og sleeves that I wanted these as soon as they came out. I sized up from the originals, since they were more stretchy and I went pretty tight even during training (they were also pretty well broken in). I followed the sizing guide which put me between xl and 2xl. I went with xl and they fit great- nice and tight but not competition tight. They stay conformed to my leg/knee very well even at the bottom of a squat. There is a nice feeling of tension over the knee cap that is confidence building. The outer material is very rough on the fingers if you try to just brute strength them on. Overall, I love the extra support with the same great fit throughout the lift as the originals . I’m very glad I got them.
While I am completely satisfied with the product, I am even more pleased with the customer service. I initially ordered the wrong size (long story there). The company immediately issued at return authorization without any trouble. Again, immediately upon receipt of my returned sleeves they sent out the new pair. Even paid for shipping back to me! I will for sure do business with this company in the future.
These are not the lowest price, let's get that out at the beginning. But even at twice the price of other brands, they provide unparalleled support. I am a 50+ competitive powerlifter, and these sleeves keep my knees pain-free (you masters lifters know what I mean) at weights that other sleeves did not. Honestly, it's hard to put a dollar value on injury/pain prevention, and these sleeves delivered that for me.
