2. Sizing and Fit

To ensure the best fit and optimal support, follow these sizing instructions:

1. Measure: Measure the circumference of your leg 2 inches (approximately 5 cm) below the center of your kneecap.
2. Consult Size Chart: Refer to the official Shock Doctor sizing chart (typically found on product packaging or the manufacturer's website) to find your corresponding size.
3. Between Sizes: If your measurement falls between two sizes, it is recommended to select the larger size for optimal comfort and to prevent over-compression.

3. Application Instructions

Follow these steps to correctly apply and remove your knee compression sleeve:

Applying the Sleeve

1. Preparation: Ensure your leg is clean and dry before application.
2. Slide On: Gently pull the entire knee sleeve over your foot. Use the easy-on pull tabs if available.
3. Positioning: Continue sliding the sleeve up your leg until the main compression area is centered over your kneecap. Ensure the sleeve is smooth and free of wrinkles for maximum comfort and effectiveness.
4. Adjustment: During extended periods of use or activity, periodically recheck the sleeve's position and tension. Adjust as needed to maintain comfort and effective support without restricting circulation.

Removing the Sleeve
