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 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.

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...

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.

I finally found it on the page when you click on the knee brace it says sizing a small is 14 to 15 1/2 for small you measure the circumference right above your knee cap for sizing

Measure around the center of your knee directly over the kneecap. The sizing correlates with the Asterisk knee brace sizing. http://www.asteriskbrace.com/sizingchart.htmlSizeSM 13" - 13 7/8"MD 14" - 14 7/8"LG 15" - 15 7/8"XL 16" - 16 7/8"XXL 17" - 18 1/4"

I'd probably go with the medium. If the small had any shrinkage at all they'd be uncomfortable and tight.

Hello, Thank you for your question. This brace is available in sizes medium through 2XL. To find your size, measure around the center of the patella. The medium fits knee circumference of 12"-14", the large fits 14"-16", the XL accommodates 16"-18" and the 2XL fits 18"-20". Please let us know if we can be of any assistance. Thank you!

Dear Erica!As you checked the sizing, you would be on the Small one for your height, but medium with your calves. I would suggest the medium. It won't be longer that much and also, you shouldn't take the small, because it would be so tight, unhealthy.

I am 5'11", medium build, and the 14" cushion works very well for me. It might be a bit too big for a petite sized person, though.

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.aspx My knee measured 14 so I got a size small.

I'm 5'9 135lbs and I got a small. Above my knee cap measures 14.5 and below is 12.75 -if you measure 15 or above I'd get medium.
