Beast Sleeves by Beast Gear - Premium 5mm Neoprene Compression Knee Sleeves for Support and Protection. Weightlifting, Crossfit, Powerlifting, Squats, Running and more.

These knee sleeves aren't like any of the standard cone-shaped knee sleeves / supports you can buy relatively cheaply, or in the case of some around the same price, they are shaped and contoured to provide better all-round support of the knee and its components such as ligaments and tendons as well in . Similar to SBS and Rehbrand sleeves.Fitting and size wise, I measured approximately middle of the large size but as always, for added compression and support, ordered the next size down. The fit is tight, with no discomfort or restrictions due to the fitting or level of compression, which is ideal for maximum support and keeping my knees warm whilst training. Due to the contoured shape of the sleeve, it makes better all round contact with the knee area. This is something the average cone-shaped sleeves don't always do with them tending to have a little looseness and bagginess around the knee which bunches up when flexing the knees and squatting. This then makes them pretty ineffective at providing the all over intended support during this stage of the lift, not something you want when lifting big. So in all these Beast Gear sleeves are a better all-round fit.Post workout effects are noticeable with no niggling around the outer knees as experienced with some sleeves due to inefficient support and lack of all-round compression.Design wise, I like that they are reversible with a choice of colour, Black or Red, with logos etc being identical on either side.I like the inclusion of the little nylon drawstring bag, not something many other brands supply, to keep the sleeves clean and together plus free from damage whilst in the gym bag.For the money, I say they are doing a cracking job and look great and are well made too.

I train 5-6 days a week and that takes a toll on your body, especially your joints. After developing a minor knee issue, I started looking into knee sleeves.I tried several different brands and none of them seemed right; either they were too uncomfortable to train in or they didn’t seem to offer enough support for peace of mind...then I found Beast Gear.The BG knee sleeves are perfect for me as they’re comfortable enough to wear without hindering my training but, most importantly, my knee feels totally supported throughout which is the biggest relief for me. I recommended these to a friend I train with and she also ordered a pair and is very impressed.Not only are these products excellent, so is the customer service; I had an issue with sizing in my initial. Not only did Ben at Beast Gear get back to me very quickly, he sent out a different size right away and followed up afterwards to make sure I was happy with the product. I’ve not experienced this high a level of customer service in a long time.Couldn’t recommend these products, or this company, any more highly.

I’ve been wearing cheap knee supports for a few years. Although they do the job, I never felt fully supported. However, Beast Gear supports are different. They are a snug fit, i ordered XL even though i normally wear L, it was the right decision. They stay up and not slide down, the support is also great when squatting, doing cardio or deadlifting. Just when you a bit more support, rigidity, it’s there.Most likely order another pair to alternate.

Purchased these a few weeks ago and went for medium according to the size chart provided. Very well made but way too small so emailed their customer support to see about returning product and getting a size up at end of November to which they replied on 1st December… nothing since despite a gentle reminder a week ago. Disappointing customer support.

Bought the small sleeves as elbow sleeves for heavy benching due to elbow pain I was experiencing, and the XL sleeves for my knees for heavy squats.Excellent service, with quick delivery and follow up emails from Beast Sleeves.The elbow fit is tight, but comfortable, and they are not overly difficult to get on/off.The knee fit it not quite as tight, but my knees feel supported. I’m not sure I would get the Large ones on but may give them a try next time I need sleeves.I felt they gave me great support while using them, and they keep the joint warm during use.I don’t know if they would help increase my lift as I haven’t attempted a 1rm with them, but my elbow pain has certainly reduced since using them.I can’t compare them to others as I have lifted raw until now but ther gym members that use the likes of SBD have commented how good the quality appears.Overall a good buy and I would recommend them.

I've had to order the largest pair hoping they would fit well and my god it's a struggle getting them on. They're just too tight, to the point where even at XL, it's a squeeze getting them on. I'd hate to imagine what it would be like with a decent pump on the legs (they ain't coming off otherwise) I'll do a squatting session and give my review again but they're extremely tight currently. If you have decent sized legs and squat regularly, these ain't for you (stick to wraps) but otherwise they might do the trick. Hard to say how much support they give but after a few bodyweight squats, the inside material rips into the back of your legs. These weren't designed for western people (it's obvious by the sizing)
