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.

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'd get a large. I bought a medium based on being at the bottom of the measurement scale and had to send it back. I love my knee braces and find it helps my old, cartilage shy knees handle deep squats and all the moves of my CrossFit workouts.

I would say definitely go with the extra small. I normally wear medium, so I ended getting size small.

I think I had found the answer originally on the Ace Bandage website. According to the box, though, Small is 12-14.5 inches in diameter around the largest part of the knee, Medium is 14.5-17 inches, Large is 17-19.5 inches, and Extra Large is 19.5-22 inches. My knee is about 16.5 inches and I found that the medium was too tight; the large was a better fit.

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.

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

I'm 5/4 145 I use the small, it's pretty tight so the medium sounds right for you.Marry Xmas and Happy New Year.

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 I was told to measure right above the knee. I pulled this from their website:Available Sizes:Medium (12 - 14 in.)Large (14 - 16 in.)X-Large (16 - 18 in.)XX-Large (18 - 22 in.)

I'm thinking you should get the small.. I am 5'9" and 145 lbs. and ordered a large it was snug so ordered the extra large which was a much better fit.

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.

I'm 14 1/2 around the knee and Medium fits me fine. I suppose you'd need a larger size.
