They are strong enough to protect my elbow from straining when working out. The support stays elastic and provides enough compression for a sore muscle.

Any product that performs perfectly for several years without any sign of failure deserves a good review. As advertised and provides a lot of stability.

The only drawback is the tag gets a little itchy during extended wear. It is lightweight and breathes, and can be easily worn under a shirt. Unlike some braces with velcro straps.

Buy one size up, these fit quite snug. My elbow is 11 1/2 inches and forearm is 14 inches, and a large seems to fit well. Some reviewers say that it's too tight, but for me tight is good.

The product offers no support. Sizing is completely off. I'm a fit 6' and 235 lbs and the xl was painfully small.

It is extremely thin cotton material that holds very little heat.
