The size chart is confusing. If the sleeves seem looser than expected, even after measuring the knee, should I have ordered the next size down?

Yes, these are compression sleeves and should be snug. You should not have to adjust them after you have put them on or keep having to pull them up.

The way it's made looks different from the picture. This product does NOT work as expected

That is what I had to do. It is hard to know for sure but the smaller size fit me.

Go A Size Smaller Than Recommended By The Sizing Chart. The Sleeves Will Stretch A Bit.

I think that is what I measured as well Dorene... I went with the medium with this. You want it to be tight not overly so though. It's supposed to sort of keep the knee in the proper position and that it does. The only way to completely do that would be a neoprene sleeve but I have not worn that for quite sometime. Only right after miniscus surgery and I wanted to play tennis 6 weeks after surgery. Then I needed the sleeve. But after about 2 months of wearing the sleeve I went to this and it keeps the knee very steady and I have had no more issues with my knee. Hope that this helps. I think that you can always send this item back if it does not work for you but i did go with the medium not the large. I think that is what I measured as well Dorene...

Hi, Look at their website. I was between sizes and went with the smaller size for snug fit. But look at their size chart.

You would think that sizing charts would be listed somewhere on Amazon for the products it sells, wouldn't you? I guess that's too much to ask. Here's a link to the sizing chart on the Meuller site: http://www.muellersportsmed.com/sizing_knee.htm

Get the size above what the chart says. If u get exactly like the chart it might be too tight.

I am an average 5'11" 185lb male with decent size thighs and I got mediums. I would say if you feel like you have larger than average thighs then go with mediums, if not then small. FYI, my sleeves are falling apart after 3 months of use, alot of use. Moving on to TK sleeves, or rehbands if I can convince myself to spend that much.

What I did is previous experience with the brand. I usually buy Nike products in size medium, therefore, I used this as size for the knee sleeve and worked just perfect! I hope this helps

I would say these sleeves may be too tight on your legs. The best answer would come from the company itself.

I agree with the others...I would go for the smaller size. I was between sizes, went with a medium and it was too big.

Linda, I found the chart to be accurate. I'm 5'9" and 195 and got the XL (largest size). I agree that large doesn't sound right to me, for you. Did you use a flexible measuring tape to measure your calf circumference? A piece of string will work.

Measure roughly 6 inches below your knee joint while your knee is bent at a thirty degree angle. Convert it from inches to centimeters and I recommend going one size down from the chart. Might be a little snug at first, but you will immediately feel the support.

Here's a little more info to help you make a decision. My husband is the same sleeve but a 15, sometimes 15 1/2 in the neck. I ordered him a medium in the short sleeve style for Christmas and it was really big. It was so big I almost returned it but since I picked it up cheap on a Lightning Deal I decided to keep it and trying washing it. It's polyester though, so it didn't really help. These shirts are standard wear in our neck of the woods (or should I say water?) ;-). They are not meant to be fitted but they shouldn't be too billowy either. The medium on my husband (who could stand to loose a few) definitely bordered on too billowy. They are very(very) wide and run big through the shoulders. The shoulder seam actually came down about and inch or two into his upper arm. For what its worth, I am going to try a small this time around and hope for a better fit.

Sizing chart is a little confusing, but here is how to read it: size ----- XS - S - M - L - XL - 2XL - 3XL waist --- 23 - 25 - 29 - 33 - 37 - 39 - 41 hip ------ 33 - 35 - 39 - 43 - 47 - 49 - 51 inseam - 29 - 29.5 - 30.5 - 31.5 - 32.5 - 33.5 - 33.5 Hope this helps. Looks like my spacing got messed up after I filed it, but I hope you can still figure it out.

One of the photos on the order page is of a size chart. I have found the size chart to be very good to determine size. I ordered mine from the size chart and it fit perfectly

Don't have quantitative info for you however I had to have the back sewn to take up slack around the knee. I bought XXL to fit thighs/calves, but could have used probably L to fit my knee snugly - if you have a large differential between joints and your musculature, you'll need to taper them or they'll move around a lot more than usual.
