I went to the manufactures website to see how they sized their knee braces. Scroll down a little on the link for a chart and full information. http://www.mcdavidusa.com/Product/510R/MCDAVID_Level_1_Knee_Sleeve_elastic.aspxMy knee measured 14 so I got a size small.

I got a playmaker which reponded to my leg measurements. It ended up being too small. My knee was in such pain that I strapped it on and wore it one day anyway. MISTAKE!! I called trying to send this one back to exchange for a larger one. They would not exchange it since I'd worn it once. So if you get one be sure to try it on and if it doesn't fit, put it right back in the bag no matter how badly your knee hurts.

I have the large and my knee and 2' above are more in the order of 15.5" and 18". I definitely would get the Medium.

I measured at the middle of the kneecap and around the knee. Per the knee measurement and my weight the XXL was my size. It fits good. Just right. Not too tight. Just the right amount of compression. The more you wear the brace, the more the bamboo seems to retain the natural bend of the knee. I've found the brace stays up better for me if I pull it up a bit farther than the picture shows. Hope it works well for you. DRA

It was too plush for me. I traded with a friend who purchased a different brand that was too firm for her. Great question and extremely important. The sellers should provide more info...even have a firmness scale that provides this key measurement. Who cares about 13 or 15 inches if its too plush or firm?

Go to McDavid 402 Knee . They will give you what part of your leg you have to measure to determine the size of the pad you need to order.

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.

Yes, it will be big enough for your knee. I love this pad! I've bought three of them, one for my mom, and two for me!!

Not really sure. I purchased these based on the measurement at the fattest (where I'm retaining fluid) section of my knee which was a medium and fit perfect. When I purchase of other ace knee supports my size is medium yet most seem to be small/medium. When I tried a medium at the doctors office I could not get up to fit the knee. So I purchase large which seems to be large/extra large. Most are not really extra large. Each type and style is as different as anything else you have try it on.

I'm afraid the circumference under your knee might be too small. I have a medium (they don't make small) and have to pull it all the way tight to get it to stay. I have another brand--McDavid--which is easier to adjust. You might want to try another brand.

It was not big enough for my knee and was useless for my knee. I weigh 200. Might work for smaller size weight.

I have also had problems with size. Medium and one size fits all are too tight. I have a 15 " knee and weigh 160 at 5'8". I recently purchased "Mizuno" Large and am pleased with these.

mines about 8" and I chose the medium. It's not too tight on me so I would suggest a Medium for you as well. Your best bet is to go to Sports Authority or somewhere local where they have this item and try it on first. That's what I did before making my purchase at Amazon to save a couple of dollars...LOL :-)
