If your going to play a sport I wo recommend them since it takes the pain away from hitting other objects.

Got these for my son who plays basketball. Pads are thick enough to protect his knees.

My son and several teammates and opposing players use them for basketball and like them. As for older players I can only surmise the compression helps stabilize the knee. I wear compression sleeves myself on my knees every night and these seem of similar quality. Hope that helps

Hello! These are for children. These did not work for us though. They are too bulky for my girls and the velcro straps are uncomfortable. Plus ours fell apart after wearing only a handful of times.

I think they would be fine. You can make them as tight as you want. You also cut the strings when you put the clip on, so you can choose how far the extra lace and clip extends. I am not a basketball expert though.

I run in them for short distances as well as rowing machine they have good support for the knee but don't know if I would use it for say legit distance running

It should work, they stretch good enough for movement but not as much too loose its shape. You should be ok since they fit snugly.

I play tennis, it helped a lot. Now I can run without worrying about knee pain next day. Not too sure about soccer or basket ball, because they need more run... But definitely it will help.

I think these would work fine for basketball shoes. If using while playing basketball, just make sure you tighten each row of the laces after you put your shoes on. I wouldn't use these if you're a "I'll just slip on my tied shoes" kind of person.

Absolutely! They aren't as thick as basketball socks though. Imagine a white crew sock w/ color and patterns on 'em. That's basically what these are, Lol

I am not sure how effective they are with arthritic knees because I do not have arthritis, however i do think they would be benifical. Extremely supportive with any compounding movements. I would recomend voo voo mobility floss bands. They could help with your knees

They help more in a mental aspect. I've moved more weight with them on. I think it just gives more confidence that your knees will track more correctly.

I think they would be great........they are very comfortable. I don't even realize I have them on. Good Luck.

I believe you have inseam options of 10" or 12". I got the 12's and they hit about the middle of my kneecap. Hope this helps.

I've worn them daily for as much as a month with no problem. I usually swap to a new one at that point, but that's an arbitrary thing -- they still seem to work well even at that time. Eventually, though, they do get stretched out of shape and don't do as good a job of supporting the knee.

Isn't pain tolerance something only you can answer? All i can say is that I wear these to snowboard... Have fallen on rocks hidden under snow without issue. I can 'take a knee' when i want to, need to. I'll not board without them. For the price, I'd suggest just trying them out. or perhaps, go to home depot, take a pair of knee pads and see if you're able to 'take a knee' without pain. I'd suspect that pain would be due to pressure of kneeling / pressure of weighting your knee, as opposed to any pressure of the ground puts on your knee. If that's the case, it wouldn't matter if you were kneeling on a mattress, or concrete.

They will certainly fit (perhaps alittle small due to size 15) but not sure if they will bunch up due to the game of basketball. I use these insoles in my walking shoes and they do not bunch up if walking fast. Hope this info helps!

Yes, I have the same problem in my right knee and that is why I bought these. While the knee can still be in pain, it prevents further irritation and allows me to move comfortably.

I only use mine for playing basketball indoors, so I have no idea if they will hold up under the conditions you plan to subject them to. I find them to be great for indoor use.
