Knee Sleeves - Neoprene, Elastic, and Drytex

A knee sleeve is a type of knee brace that offers mild compressive support all around your knee joint. This helps provide extra stability for individuals that suffer from certain knee conditions, such as minor knee instability, light arthritis, mild knee pain, swelling, meniscus tears or knee bursitis. Knee sleeves typically come in stretchy materials such as elastic and neoprene. DonJoy also manufactures knee sleeves made of Drytex, a patented material that is more breathable than regular fabrics. Athletes also wear knee sleeves to keep their knee muscles and ligaments warmed up and flexible. Knee sleeves are also sometimes called knee wraps.
