Size selection: There are 6 sizes of ContexGel knee sleeves to choose from. If possible, the knee sleeve should be aligned centrally to the knee joint. Thus, the distal circumference of the shaft and the proximal circumference of the thigh (approx. 15 cm above the centre of the knee) determine the required ContexGel knee sleeve size.
