My knee measures 14", should I get a small or a medium?

On this brace, I have a 20" knee and the 2X was too big, the XL was just right. I hope this helps.

I have two braces. This one I use for refereeing basketball games which requires a lot of running and twisting of the knee. I use a less confining brace for just walking. If you are 14" at the semi-bent knee I would go for the medium. I have a 15" knee at purchased a large and it fits fine.

I'd go for a medium as I have found that the supports I have had run a little on the small size and my Velcro closures are meeting near the tips of the straps with little overlap. One of the comments said that with a 15" knee a large fits fine. Because of the previous mentioned tight fit you also might want to consider a large. If you can try to find a sizing chart with McDavid or Mueller supports that grades size in inches and not just S, M, L, etc.

Yes, I think the large would be better as my knees measure 14 1/2 but when I talked to the physician's assistant at my doctor's office, she recommended the larger size as knees do swell during the day. Hope this is helpful.

Measure around the knee cap while standing for proper size: Small 13 1/2 - 15 Inches, Medium 15 1/2 - 17 Inches, Large 17 1/2 - 19 Inches

I think the large would work for you. My husband is 15" knees, 16" thigh and calves and works well for him. Hope this helps you."

Sorry for being soo late.Go to the Nike website, they give you info about the patella band.then buy from amazon.I believe if you measure just below your knee cap and you measure 14 inches or less you need a medium.above 14 inches you will need a large. I hope this helps you, they make a big difference wearing the bands.

Actually CB I believe the XL start at 14.5 and go over 16+ which I assume 17 should be covered. I got the L which cover up 14.5 but I like it to fit tight on my calves and it gvs just right up to 15" . Hope that helps.Good luck

Hello,This item is based off the knee circumference. You would measure the knee by standing and bending your leg just less than 45 degrees. Be sure to measure around the largest part of the knee, directly over the knee cap. Here are the sizes:Small 12-14"Medium 14-15"Large 15-17"X-Large 17-20"XX-Large 20-22"MMAR Sports Medicine

I would recommend a small. The material is stretchy and a medium may not provide as much support.

My husband's knee measured 13" and when he put the Small on it was way too small. I would definitely suggest getting the medium. It's one piece and very difficult to get off the leg.

Since they are adjustable a medium should be OK. A small will be really small.

I would get the size for the 14 leg cause the way these are made and feel the 16 would be too big. My mother has the same problem.

From the Mizuno website: These measurements should be taken 1" above the knee. small (11 & under) - under 13.5" medium (12-15 yrs) - 13.5"-15.5" large (16 & older) - Over 15.5"So, yes, I would order size small.

I ordered the medium for my 14 lb Bichon Frise. I really think you would be better with a small. The medium fits Kerry perfectly.

You'll want the small. My knee is the same measurement and the smalls are perfect. They are tight but not too constrictive, and really, the last thing you want is them to be sliding down your leg!

I have 16" knees and the large fit me well. I'd suggest you get an XL if they are available. RE: padding - I am almost 50 and I hit the floor a lot and I think these knee pads provide adequate protection. Maybe if you hit really hard you would need a bigger pad but I find these work well for me.
