Knee Sleeve for Knee Pain

For the past six months I have been experiencing knee pain when I hike and it was becoming an issue. If my left knee bent more the 90 degrees I was in pain. This made scrambling difficult and painful.  I needed to find a solution.

About Me  (skip reading if you know me)
I have done over 2,000 hikes in the past 24 years. From easy hikes to hikes such as: Badwater to Telescope Peak, the 4 Peak hike in Red Rock, Mummy Head to Toe, and numerous peaks in the Sierra. I have done a ton of hardcore hikes; however, I have never had knee surgery. 

Simply put these knee sleeves work!  I did Kraft Mtn, Lost Creek Peak, and Eva's Tower without knee pain. Nothing else changed besides wearing these knee sleeves! It was amazing to hike pain free again.

They did not roll or fall down as I hiked. They felt comfortable and supportive without feeling hot or restricting.

I am still being careful with my knees using my hands to descend, if possible, and not jumping. When I wear these knee sleeves I feel 10 years younger and can hike like I use to!
