The 2XL says 22" around the knee. Is that measured directly on the knee cap, or is that 3" above the knee? I want to make sure before I order. Thank

Ok here is what I did for you. I put on the band and at the very top of it (when on) it measures 26" and can expand more (feels comfortable). 3" above the knee measures ~23" and again is very comfortable with more room. I would say if you are between 20 and 24 (maybe 25) around the knee, you will be fine as there are straps that hold the thing in place.When ON:On the knee cap measures 22.5"below the knee cap measures 19"

My measurement at the knee cap is exactly 16 inches and I ordered a LARGE which is a perfect fit.

McDavid says to measure around the knee- http://www.mcdavidusa.com/Product/425R/MCDAVID_Level_2_Knee_Support_w_stays_cross_straps.aspx - I not at home to look at it, but I think I purchased the XL, and it is a nice fit for me.

I do not know for sure. I based my purchase on my regular clothing sizes. I am normally a med. so that is what I ordered. It fits well but the excess material in the back causes bunching which results in abrasion to the skin.

it is 3 inches above the knee...I needed the measurement to fit around my thigh...I have big thighs from losing a large amount of weight, so I have excess skin and its extrmemly hard and knees braces just wont fit my thigh..this one does fit and stays in place pretty well. it does fit over some jeans if you need to wear it that way.I normally wear it under my exercise clothes. there is also another brand that makes large sizes called...F.L.A... they make knee sleeves up to 3x if you need. you can return this if it doesn't fit...check amazons return policies. I hope my answer helps you.

My knee measurement is 16 1/2 (across the knee cap) so this fits fine at that point but I found it too tight at the calf and the upper leg. Perhaps I have some swelling because of inflamation. I've found a more comfortable one at Walmarts, size L/XL which fits 16" to 20" and does not have the velcro tabs top and bottom. I found the tabs don't close flatly and catch on clothing.

Measure around the knee in the standing position. Size charts are included by some of the suppliers and I also found one in the reviews. If still unable to find one, google them and find the size on another site. They are worth the extra time. I have them in several sizes and use as both knee support and calf support. They wash well and last a very long time even with daily use.

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...

On the back of the box are the instructions on how to measure to determine your size. I enlarged the photo of the back of the box to determine what size I needed, my calves are 22" around and hence I ordered XL and it works perfect! I started with 2XL and they work as well, only difference is the foot is too large and I have extra room in the toes on that pair.

I have short legs. Hen I first pull mine up it's more like 6 " above the knee. I just measured, 17.5. It does work it's way down to the 2 " mark tho, that's where I just found it, I've worn it all day it's bed time now. Measurement at 2" above, 16. Measurement around the knee, 14.5. I've worn mine every day for 3 months, after a few minutes, I forget that it's even on.

It covers the a little more than half the knee in width. When I wrap it around my knee with the gel pack, I put another ice pack behind my knee and the straps hold it in. I do wish we could purchase replacement gel packs.

Run a search for Pro-Tec Knee Strap on line, like Google. It will tell you to measure around your knee, under the knee cap. The instructions will tell you what size to order per your measurement.

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 bought X-Large Men's to fit me, and I'm an average women of 5'6". But beware. Do you notice how the hard plastic shield has that inch turn in? The normal knee cap is round. The top portion of this pad would carve into the top of my knee cap and that hurt, at one point I thought it dislocated my knee cap. I can only speak for myself. I went back to a more rounded shield knee protection. Now this style for my elbows work great. The sizing is really off. If I knew your address I'd mail these to you, they are no good to me. Take care now.

Not sure, but I believe the size difference is for the width of the knee more than the length of the sleeve.

I guess that depends on the size of your knee! I have multiple sizes of these ColPacs (Love them!). This particular size will not go around my knee. I use it on top of my knee, but it does go comfortably down each side of it. I also us it on my shoulder. It's a really nice size, but they do make a giant back one that I have as well, that would go around your knee. If you have a small knee, this will wrap around it. Hope I didn't confuse you too much :-) These ColPacs are really worth having!

I bought this for my dad, who is 5'10. Without a cast on his foot/leg, it reached to just about an inch above the knee. In order for this to work, the covering really should go about 3 inches above the knee cap and have room for the closure to make a proper seal.

It will not fit above the knee. It measures 21.5 inches from the tip of the Velcro strap to the end of the weight.

12 inches top to bottom. 25 inches around. I'm a big guy and it wraps 1 1/2 times around the knee
