I ordered a size smaller as suggested in other reviews (so a size L instead of XL), which made the main part of the wrap perfect for my thigh size (25" at the top), but made the elastic at the top almost unbearable after about twenty minutes, especially if sitting for any length of time, as when sitting in a car when driving. Ouch!! If I had ordered a size larger, the elastic at the top probably would have been fine size wise, but I don't think the rest of the wrap would have given the same compression that this size gives and what I needed. In order to try to fix this, I wet the top elastic band and stretched them over some supports for a couple of days (about ten inches apart), and that helped a lot by stretching the tops a bit (without stretching the main wrap part). It has helped, even when sitting -- without compromising their main support. Other than the above, I think these are great for walking, etc. They don't slip and give excellent support and compression. I also like the length of them, as I can stretch them down to above my knees (I’m 5’.6-1/2” tall), which I feel gives more support to the whole thigh. Great deal also as you get a pair of them. I started wearing one on each side when walking around, and am very happy that I got them. When the thigh part starts to feel too tight and causes pain, I started to just roll the top part down to just below my knee, and even in that position, I feel that by giving some support to my knee, they still seem to help my thigh. Once the “too tight” elastic irritation goes down, I just pull them back up again. It was suggested that I try putting vaseline around the top of my thighs to help reduce the top elastic support problem, but haven’t gotten around to trying it yet. I’ve worn them mainly beneath my clothes so far, but they are okay above, as long as your pants, for example, don’t start slipping down. So wear a belt if you can, lol. I’ve also worn them when sleeping and when the elastic started to feel too tight, I once again, just folded the top part of the wrap down to below my knee which has been working so far. They do get somewhat sweaty on a humid day, but that’s to be expected. A good time to wear them above your clothing. Despite my problems with the tightness of the top elastic part, I would definitely recommend these. You might just have to experiment with the sizes they have to suit yourself.

Shipped fast, as advertised. Size runs as you expected. Happy with purchase.

I am a 5ft 4in, 100lb, 54-year-old female who works out 7 days per week, 1.5hrs per day 100% cardio. I have been athletic my entire life and as a result, already have had knee replacement surgery and back fusion surgery. Unfortunately, I don't learn a lesson and push myself past any pain, discomfort, even surgery to do my workout each morning. That all being said, my workouts over the past 20+ years had been on a Schwinn Airdyne (fan bike). After having to retire my 3rd Airdyne bike, I decided to transition to a skull rowing machine. After 2 months, I had significant soreness in my hamstrings, glutes and hip flexor muscles. After reading customer comments about buying a memory foam/gel seat to help, I made that purchase as well, however, the damage had been done to my muscles and there was no way I wasn't going to work out so I sawt out a solution - compression therapy was the answer. These sleeves have made a huge difference in the first few days of use. I wasn't sure the size to choose since you never know if the size chart is accurate, but I went with the large. It says to measure the thickest part of your thigh which for me was 18 inches. The size chart would have had me buy a XL but I wanted to be sure it was tighter rather than looser, and I am glad I did. The sleeves offer nice compression at the top of my thigh. The end closest to my knee is also good but not as tight as the top (that area on me is 15 inches). I would absolutely recommend these sleeves for those struggling with hamstring/IT band pain or someone who has been struggling with a long-term injury.

These really helped me out. I play is softball tournaments and tend to play 3-6 games in a day and sometimes 8 in a weekend. They reduced my muscle soreness which is huge at my age of 55. Good price and fast delivery. I used them multiple times already and am very satisfied.
