IPF & IWF Approved Knee Sleeves Designed Specifically for Strength Training
These are the original designs from 2013, and have now been discontinued. We will continue to have them available on the website until they sell out. They have been replaced by the new 7mm version that you can find here.
This is the original 7mm knee sleeve from SBD, the heavy duty version can be found here.

Product Care Information
We recommend hand washing your knee sleeves with water or a mild detergent (or a specialist neoprene/wetsuit detergent), then allow the sleeves to air dry standing up.
The spin cycle of a washing machine can damage the sleeve, as the knee sleeves become quite bulky when wet and can potentially get caught up or damaged by wringing. High heat from a washing machine or a dryer will degrade the rubber in the sleeves (potentially causing shrinkage or brittleness).
