I have the Strong knee sleeves but wanted to see if the Gangsta knee sleeves added more compression and pain relief (arthritis). They are definitely a thicker material and feel tighter. However, I'm not sure if they provide more support or compression besides being tighter. Also, even though I measured my knee correctly (13") and bought the correct size (Small) based on a 13-14" knee measurement, they are ridiculously tight and hard to put on. In fact, they are so tight that it squeezes behind the knees and is uncomfortable when squatting. I would highly recommend moving up one size even if you don't have large calves.

Good sleeves. Solid fit. Initially doubted it would make that much of difference but it actually does

Ive had these for just over two years, and the neoprene is falling apart and has torn in many places. I'm quite disappointed in the quality, and really expected more. I followed the sizing guide and all the usage guidelines, and yet they are completely falling apart. There are multiple tears in the neoprene of both sleeves, and in one theres a complete tear from top to bottom. I was really expecting more of a lifespan, seeing my SBDs that are over ten years old are still in good shape. They might not be stiff, but the neoprene is intact and still keeps the joints warm. I really regret buying these, since they really didn't last very long. Im not adding pics, but if theyre wanted, I will.

Wanted to love these however even after measurement I could not get them properly on. I watched every tutorial offered for ease and when I say blood, sweat, and tears were in the process of trying to get these in position I’m not lying!!!

They don’t hold up. Super great in the beginning, very strong and supportive. After only about 15 uses, the foam inside has broken apart which compromises stability and support considerably. Cannot recommend even though I loved them before they fell apart.
