Knitted Knee Support
With Silicone Pad, Everyday Support for an Active Lifestyle
An elastic knitted sleeve with a silicone ring that cushions the area around the kneecap.
Product Description
The knit gives light, even compression all round the joint, and the silicone ring sits against the kneecap so the pressure is softened where the bone is closest to the surface. It stays put on stairs and during walking and is comfortable enough for long wear.
Key Benefits
• Even Compression: Light, uniform pressure all round the joint.
• Stays in Place: Holds position while walking and on stairs.
• Breathable Knit: Comfortable for extended wear.

Questions and Answers
Common questions about the Knitted Knee Support. For anything specific to your own condition, speak to a qualified healthcare professional.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure around the middle of the knee with the leg straight and read UNI or SPL from the table. The silicone ring should surround the kneecap, not sit on top of it. Available sizes: UNI, SPL. Knee circumference in centimetres, measured across the middle of the kneecap with the leg straight and relaxed. Check the size table on this page against your own measurement before ordering.
How do I put it on and wear it?
Roll the sleeve over the foot and up the leg with the silicone ring centred on the kneecap. Smooth out any folds behind the knee before walking.
Will it restrict my movement?
Knee bending and straightening stay free; the sleeve moves with the joint. It should feel secure without pinching, sliding, or cutting off circulation.
How is this different from the other Bodymap options?
This sleeve wraps the whole joint and adds a silicone ring around the kneecap. A patellar tendon strap presses on one point below the kneecap instead, and a hinged or spring brace adds structure at the sides of the knee.
How do I wash and care for it?
Fasten all closures before washing. Follow the care label supplied with the product. Unless the label states otherwise, hand wash gently in lukewarm water with mild detergent and air dry flat away from direct heat. Do not bleach, wring, tumble dry, or iron.
When should I stop using it and seek advice?
Do not wear a sleeve that leaves deep marks or feels tight at the back of the knee. Remove it if you notice numbness, tingling, swelling below the knee, colour change, or skin irritation. Locking, giving way, or significant swelling requires professional assessment.
