CopperJoint Knee Compression Sleeve Knee Support for Women & Men - Breathable Copper Infused Nylon - Non-Slip - For Pain Relief, Recovery, Swelling & Circulation – Single Sleeve Only (Small)

It's been not even a couple of weeks since using this sleeve so take this for what I can attest to so far. I am not sure what is wrong with my knee, (maybe just age, and don't have any option for affordable insurance) but have had some pretty severe pain the inside of me knee that at times kept me from walking without dragging my leg like my knee popped out of place or something. Pretty painful. So I have tried quite a few "knee braces" by Ace, Mueller, different styles, you know, the typical Walmart or Walgreen's selection and every one of them made my leg swell if I wore them for any reasonable length of time. They all were "thickish" material and felt substantial. But wearing them, though secure feeling, was not comfortable to just wear all day. They were like something just grabbing my leg to hold it all together. A good first step, but big downsides for me with the swelling. I was looking at this one and said I'm done with the swelling because that just won't work, and needed "something". I read the reviews and not easily swayed, I figured I would give it a go. Guess what? For me this was instantly amazing. Soothing, more effective than any other, pain was miraculously diminished, AND I could wear it all day, all night with NO swelling. It is so thin, and comfortable and it fits under any pants and you just forget about it. For something so thin and comfortable you would think, how could this be doing anything? I have been wearing it ever since with great benefit. I forgot to put it on before work one day and my knee was really bothering me. I took a break and went home for lunch and to get my CopperJoint sleeve. Slipped it on and never even thought about me knee for the rest of the day! Don't know about the "copper" thing, or the chemical compound and amount it supposedly has. However, I'll take it because it just works! Period. I don't take to easy to writing reviews, because most products oversell themselves and you usually have to take it all like exaggeration, but I was actually compelled to write this review because the product actually does what it says. Pretty interesting, right? I am sure "sizing" is important so check the charts and do the best you can. Mine is a small but still a bit tight around the "bands" for a small thin person, but again, I am experiencing no swelling and it just feels good. I am tempted to try the medium and thought of exchanging it out, but I am happy so far and don't want to mess with the success I have had with this CopperJoint compression sleeve. We are all different, and may experience something different based on the condition, but I would wholeheartedly say "just try it". You may be just as pleasantly surprised as me if you have knee pain or trying to heal an injury. If I can hang in there less than one more year Medicare can kick in for me and I can be properly diagnosed as to what is going on with my knee. With discovering this sleeve I believe I can make it that far!

I am an avid 70 year old golfer and at my age I don't like taking any downtime from the game. I recently had a torn meniscus repaired along with cleaning out some "joint mice" that had been aggravating me for years. About ten days after surgery I was ready to try playing again. I began hitting practice balls using a standard type of brace but it was bulky and constricting and tended to bind behind the knee after only a few shots. An Ace bandage didn't work much better. I ordered and received the Copperjoint knee sleeve in time to make my first tee time since the surgery and it performed as I hoped it would. My knee was still tender and a little swollen so the support that the sleeve gave me went a long way toward giving me the confidence to hit full shots without fear of "something going wrong". The Copperjoint sleeve stayed in place through the entire round and never felt uncomfortable or bunched up. After my round my knee pain and swelling was no worse than when I started. I also like the fact that a company executive e-mailed me shortly after I ordered and assured me that if I had any issues with the brace they would resolve them to my satisfaction. Based on that I feel confident that they are serious about customer service. Great product, excellent company - worth a shot if you're looking for firm support with a minimum of bulk and hassle.

Backstory: I'm a casual runner with a nurse for a wife. I've been running 10k's and my knee has been giving me trouble. My wife suggested a knee brace, so I bought the one with the best reviews I could find (this one). Sizing: I took a wild guess at sizing (i'm 5'5" and pretty thin) with a small, and it ended up being a good fit perfect. Testing it out: The run that got me frustrated enough to buy this product was on a particularly hilly course. I made it 3 miles before I had to walk home defeated due to knee pain. Fast forward a week, I've got my brand new CopperJoint knee brace in hand (or, on leg rather), and I decided to test it out on the same path. I was originally concerned that 6 miles would leave this thing around my ankle instead of in place on the knee, but the high friction grips at the top of the brace proved themselves up to their task, and I had no trouble with slippage at all. When all was said and done, I made it the full distance, set a personal record for my 10k, and have had no knee pain during the run or after. Disclaimer: I have only run with the brace once, so I cannot speak to the durability of the product at all. Also, I happen to trust my wife when she suggests a brace after knee pain while running. If you are reading this review and haven't talked to a health care professional about pain you experience when working out, you should do that before buying any product like this one.

Did a little spring skiing and ended up with a torn ACL, MCL, and LCL. The pain was excruciating... not just from the accident but from the recovery and physical therapy. I was having a really hard time straightening out my knee post surgery and it was so painful to keep it locked on straight while I slept at night. I definitely had a ton of sleepless and exhausting evenings. My therapist suggested I get a compression sock / band to help with the swelling but I found this. I am so glad I did, it does help with the swelling but most of all it helps so much with the pain. I wore it for the first time at night while I had my brace locked on straight and I slept so well. Didn't even notice that my knee didn't hurt until the next day. After wearing this I decided to try putting weight on my leg and a couple days later I am already walking ahead of schedule (I don't recommend doing this BTW, just saying that is what I did). I'm not sure if it will stay tight after wearing it for so long or after washing so I will probably purchase a second or third pair. It's completely worth the money and I definitely recommend it.

Didn’t help the discomfort in my knee but it was comfortable to wear.

I bought this for my mother because she has knee pain. But this item doesn't apply pressure on the knee. She states that she feels the pressure at the top and bottom of the compression sleeve but nothing much on the knee at all. She describes it as if she "just has cloth on her skin". It isn't worth the money. I was skeptical about buying it because she wouldn't be able to try it on first. I regret the purchase. I give it one star because it doesn't actually compress the joint that it's supposed to. It stays up on her knee but what's the point.

I was so impressed with this CopperJoint’s sleeve for knee pain. The discomfort in my knee just stopped. It will be excellent to travel on long airplane trips with it and actually can be worn very comfortably under clothing. It did not slip or give me any trouble. I have recently ordered their brace for more aggressive exercise once I am cleared to walk distance and run. Thank you to the people at CopperJoint for making a very useful and comfortable product!

I was looking for a knee sleeve that would stabilize my knee and help control the pain. I thought I would try one of copper related ones that are on the market. Of all of them, this was the best one. It provided support, aided with my pain management and was comfortable to wear; not too tight as some of the ones I've come across. However, and this is just me, the length of the wrap was a lot longer than I had expected. I didn't realize how much area the wrap would actually cover. I contacted the seller, and they were more than helpful with my return. While this one didn't work out for me due to personal preference, the product was still a great find and had a great price! I hope, in the future, that I will be able to do business with this seller again!
