Measure the circumference of your knee joint with your leg extended and your muscles relaxed.
Measure around the middle of your kneecap (at the patella) and around the thickest part of your calf. If your calf is more than 4cm larger than your knee, you may want to go up one size to ensure a good fit.
If you are new to wearing knee sleeves, we recommend choosing the size given in the table rather than sizing down, particularly if you are a size M or smaller.
| Size | Knee joint circumference (cm) |
|---|---|
| 3XS | 23 - 25.5 |
| 2XS | 25.5 - 28 |
| XS | 28 - 30.5 |
| S | 30.5 - 33 |
| M | 33 - 35.5 |
| L | 35.5 - 38 |
| XL | 38 - 40.5 |
| 2XL | 40.5 - 43 |
| 3XL | 43 - 45.5 |
| 4XL | 45.5 - 48 |
| 5XL | 48 - 51.5 |
- Measure the circumference of your knee over the patella with your leg extended but relaxed.
- Measure the circumference at the widest part of your calf with your leg extended but relaxed.
- Use the larger of the two values to determine your size from the table.
Knee sleeves in the regular fit already sit close to the leg. If you are new to wearing knee sleeves, we recommend choosing the size given in the table rather than sizing down, particularly if you are a size M or smaller.
We recommend cleaning your knee sleeves by hand with water or a mild detergent (a specialist neoprene wash if you have one). Then leave the knee sleeves to air dry.
The spin cycle of a washing machine can damage the knee sleeves, as they become quite bulky when wet and may catch or be damaged by wringing. The high heat of a washing machine or dryer breaks down the rubber in the knee sleeves, which can lead to shrinkage or brittleness.

Built for movement
The 5mm Weightlifting Knee Sleeves meet the strict specifications of the International Powerlifting Federation and the International Weightlifting Federation, making them the preferred choice for athletes who need unrestricted freedom of movement.
Premium neoprene
High grade 5mm neoprene provides maximal compression and an optimal contact surface throughout the knee movement. The antimicrobial treatment inhibits bacterial growth and measurably reduces odour.
Innovative spiral seam
Our patented design is not just distinctive - it is biomechanically optimised to fit your knee precisely and deliver targeted support on every lift.
Enhanced compression
The SBD knee sleeves maintain compression through flexion and prevent gapping, so your knee joint is supported consistently. That keeps your form, your speed and a natural movement pattern even under maximal load.
The Gold Standard In Strength Training And Competitive Lifting
SBD knee sleeves are worn by more world champions than any other brand.
FAQ about the SBD Weightlifting Knee Sleeves
Here you will find frequently asked questions about this product.
What is the difference between the SBD Knee Sleeves, the SBD Weightlifting Knee Sleeves and the SBD Powerlifting Knee Sleeves?
Watch the video or find out more in our full Knee Sleeves Guide
Can I also use the weightlifting knee sleeves for powerlifting and heavy strength training?
Although this product was developed specifically for weightlifters, the knee sleeves are also ideal for strength athletes who prefer a slightly shorter sleeve, or who want knee sleeves that are easier to put on and offer less support for lighter training sessions.
How do I find the right knee sleeve size for me?
The procedure is the same as for the original SBD knee sleeves.
Measure the circumference of your knee joint with your leg extended and your muscles relaxed. Measure around the middle of your kneecap and around the thickest part of your calf. If your calf is more than 4cm larger than your knee, we recommend going up one size to ensure a good fit.
If you want a very tight fit, for example for maximal attempts in powerlifting or weightlifting competition, we recommend going down one size. Even a regular fit will already feel close.
For sizes smaller than Medium we do not recommend sizing down again.
