What part of arm should you measure to determine size?

I do not believe there is a way to actually measure the arm to gauge a fit of this product. It is a compression sleeve. The product is supposed to fit "snug" around the arm/elbow in order to provide warmth and compression to aid somewhat in pain relief and protection from injury. I would basically go by a shirt size mentality. My son, a baseball player, wears an adult medium t-shirt and I bought the adult medium compression sleeve. That seems to have worked well. Hope this helps!!!

I can give you the actual measurements for the S/M size. I never used mine but still have them in new condition. They're too tight for my arms, should've gone with M lol. When laid out flat: the sleeves are 17 inches long, the top part at the bicep is 4 inches, and the bottom part at the wrist is 3 inches. So that would be 8 inches around the bicep and 6 inches around the wrist. Hope this helps!

What's the circumference of your arm? The band comes in two sizes, I can measure the larger one

Measure your forearm at it's largest diameter. Not your bicep! If your between sizes, purchase the larger size. I made the mistake of buying the smaller size and it is too tight for comfort.The product is extremely well made! Hope this helps.

Well, on myself it went from my elbow to my wrist! Sorry! I dont have a tapemeasure on hand but I am a 5'6" female with normal ratio I would guess. personally it was very uncomfortable and terribly awkward trying to get it off and on with only one good arm. I went back to the plain standard type. easy on easy off and better fit. just my opinion..but then you did ask! Most expensive isn't always the best. Hope this helps you decide which is best for your arm. Hope you recover quickly!

Measure your wrist, bicep (at thickest parts) as well as length from wrist to bicep. I did not measure the bent elbow but if you're wondering it measures a little under 12". I ordered large and my bicep measured 13", wrist 7&1/2" and length 17". It has a good stretch, if you're a little larger, yet maintains great compression. I really love them, surprised at how well they work.

I have a small arm and it fit me. I believe the instructions say that it fits an arm as small as 8 inches in diameter.

I believe large would be best. (Size large was just a little bit snug on my 140 lb mother who is less than 5 feet tall. I'm assuming that if you are at least 5 feet tall, your arms would be more slender and, thus, large should fit better.)

My arm is pretty decent sized I honestly would look for a smaller one.... That's my opinion this was almost too big for me and I'm pretty good size myself

Grabbed the info below off the internet. What's My Size? To find out your glove size, measure (in inches) around your hand with a tape measure at the place indicated by the red line (just below the knuckles). You should use your dominant hand, the right if you are right-handed, and the left if you are left-handed. * NUMERIC SIZES: These are the same as your measurement in inches. Round up or down to the nearest size. * LETTER SIZES: Use the chart below to convert inches to letters. Round up or down to the nearest size. MEN'S SIZES size inch* cm* XS 7 18 S 7 1/2 - 8 20 M 8 1/2 - 9 23 L 9 1/2 - 10 25 XL 10 1/2 - 11 28 XXL 11 1/2 - 12 30 WOMEN'S SIZES size inch* cm* XS 6 15 S 6 1/2 16 1/2 M 7 18 M/L 7 1/2 19 L 8 20 XL 8 1/2 23 * HALF SIZES (if available): Round up to the nearest half size.

Yes, I just measured my husband's arm. He has the same measurement and is comfortable with the sleeves.

The 2XU website has a sizing chart for this and clearly states: "Measurements for the arm sleeves should be taken in a relaxed state at the largest girth of the bicep and the forearm. If your measurements of two different points for a garment do not correlate for one particular size, first try the size recommended by your forearm measurement." So NOT flexed. The other answer is just wrong.

I had returned it. The armband was bigger than my arm. You should measure your arm and compare it to the band's.

Your forearm is below the elbow, so with your arm hanging down and relaxed, measure an 1-2 inches below your elbow.

I suggest measuring your arm where you will wear it. I wear mine on my upper arm. S/M fits 8.5"-11". M/L fits 11"-15". For people with larger arms, there is an extender that adds 3", according to Sporteer website 15"-18".

I have always worn LG or XL (6'6" 260 LBs). If you go to www.tommiecopper.com they show how to measure. http://www.tommiecopper.com/product/mens-elbow-compression-sleeveIt looks to me that you measure the circumference of your bicep. The top portion of this sleeve rests on the bicep. The large I have fits securely and doesn't slide. I hope this was helpful??!!

There is a size chart on the website. The top is tampered so my leg on would have worked on my arm until I trimmed it down.
