Care & how to wear
Before you wear
- Clean your skin; remove dirt or oil before using. Shaving can increase adhesion.
- Moisturize the skin before using as it significantly reduces irritation.
- Remove dust or lint off the surface of the silicone for better adhesion.
- We recommend starting from less than an hour.
- Gradually increase usage time up to 5 hours at a time.
- Re-adjust the taping, if you are using for longer hours.
How to wear: K2 Knee Sleeve
- Turn the sleeve inside out.
- Hold the sleeve upside down, and put the smaller end in first.
- Pull the sleeve up and turn it right-side up so that the bigger end is now on your thigh.
- Place your sleeve so the knee cap is in the center of the circle band, and secure the sleeve by carefully pulling the sleeve.
How to wear: E2 Elbow Sleeve
- Slide the sleeve over your hand and pull it up the forearm until it sits across the elbow.
- Position the sleeve so the circular design sits over the centre of your elbow (see photos). This is where the kinesiology support works.
- Smooth the non-slip bands flat at both ends so the sleeve stays in place. Fits both left and right.
Care
- We recommend hand-washing with neutral laundry detergent and lukewarm water.
- When washing, rub the silicone focusing on wiping off dust.
- Do not iron.
- Air dry in the shade with the silicone inside — do not use a dryer.
- Avoid leaving the product in extreme temperatures.
- Avoid oil or chemicals.
Durability can differ depending on the user's environment and lifestyle.
How it works
What sets it apart
Kinesiology support, built into the fabric
Our patented AlignX™ technology places adhesive silicone on the inside of the garment. It grips the skin like kinesiology tape, so the support holds while you move.
Learn more about AlignX™Laid along your muscle linesWorks like kinesiology tape
The silicone follows the direction of your muscles. Its grip is tuned to hold firm while you train, yet release easily when you take it off.
No cutting, no stickingSupport you just put on
No tape to cut and no expert needed to apply it. Put it on, and the support is already in place.
Grip comes back after washingReusable, wear after wear
A simple wash restores the grip of AlignX™ silicone, so you can wear it again and again instead of throwing tape away.
Moves as you moveStretches with the fabric
AlignX™ silicone stretches along with the fabric, so it won't lift or peel off, even during intense movement.
Both knees and both elbows, covered together
Kinesiology compression sleeve for knee stability
Get the targeted benefits of professional taping instantly. The K2 uses our patented AlignX™ technology to provide kinesiology support. It acts as a wearable patella stabilizer to reduce vibrations and fatigue, so you can move with total confidence.
3x more support when bending your joints
Experience powerful, graduated compression that adapts to your movement. The K2 provides enhanced support during deep squats, lunges, and jumps, helping to improve circulation and reduce joint strain when you need it most.
World's only adhesive kinesiology tech
Targeted kinesiology support absorbs impact, reduces stress on the elbow joint, and keeps your muscles engaged so you can train longer with less fatigue. Feel confident in every lift, swing, and push.
Details that count
Dual non-slip grip
Unique bubble silicone bands at the top and bottom lock the sleeve in place. Prevents slipping and rolling even during intense squats or sprints.
Circle for easy placement
The integrated circular design guides you to perfect positioning over your kneecap. Pro tip: flip the sleeve inside-out before wearing for the easiest application.
The ring shows you where the kinesiology support sits
AlignX™ silicone on the inside face grips skin without a strap, and washing brings the stickiness back. The ring on the outside is your aiming mark - line it up with the point of your elbow.
Kinesiology lines and a straight grip band
This colour version is here to show the layout - the chevrons trace the AlignX™ kinesiology lines around the elbow. Inside the upper cuff, a straight silicone band grips your arm so the sleeve stays in place. The sleeve you receive is black with dark grey lines.

E2 Elbow SleeveFrequently asked questions
What is the WaveWear K2 knee sleeve? Who is it for?
The WaveWear K2 is a single knee compression sleeve with built-in AlignX™ kinesiology silicone designed to support the kneecap and surrounding muscles during movement.
It is ideal for runners, lifters, hikers, field and court athletes, and anyone who wants extra stability or relief from knee discomfort in daily activities.
How does it help improve stability?
The K2 combines graduated compression with targeted AlignX™ silicone around the patella to reduce vibration and keep the knee tracking more smoothly. This helps absorb impact, reduce fatigue, and give a more locked-in feeling during squats, lunges, jumps, sprints, and long runs.
It provides light to moderate support. It is not a substitute for a rigid or hinged medical brace used after serious injuries or surgery; people with significant instability or strong pain should consult a healthcare professional.
Can I wear it on both knees?
Yes. The K2 sleeve is not left- or right-specific, so it can be worn on either knee. Many users choose a pair if both sides need support.
For sizing, measure the thigh circumference 15cm above the middle of your knee and refer to the on-page size chart to match your measurement for a snug but comfortable fit.
Can this replace a knee brace?
This knee sleeve offers lightweight compression and support that can help with mild knee pain, fatigue, and general stability in daily life and sports.
It does not replace a rigid or hinged knee brace used after serious injuries or surgery; if you have significant instability or strong pain, consult a medical professional about a proper brace.
You can, however, wear the K2 knee sleeve underneath a stronger compression sleeve or brace.
I had ACL surgery — can I use this for recovery?
The K2 offers lightweight compression and support for mild knee pain, fatigue, and general stability. It does not replace a rigid or hinged brace used after surgery — consult a medical professional first.
Below is a review from a customer who used the K2 after ACL surgery.
Do knee sleeves help with squats?
Yes — knee sleeves can provide compression, warmth, and flexible support around the knee during squats.
Knee support: A close-fitting sleeve wraps the knee as it bends and extends during back squats, front squats, goblet squats, and similar lower-body exercises.
Warmth and comfort: Wearing the sleeve from warm-up sets through working sets can help keep the knee area warm without the bulk of a rigid brace.
Built-in taping: The WaveWear K2 Knee Sleeve combines compression with AlignX™ adhesive silicone taping technology, providing a reusable taping-like pull around the knee without applying separate kinesiology tape.
What is the difference between compression knee sleeves and powerlifting knee sleeves?
Compression knee sleeves are generally thinner and more flexible, while thick powerlifting sleeves are designed to provide a firmer, more rigid fit during heavy squats.
Flexibility: A lightweight compression sleeve can move with the knee through squats, lunges, accessory work, conditioning, and cooldowns.
Level of rigidity: Thick powerlifting sleeves are commonly used when a lifter wants greater containment during heavy squat attempts. They may feel less comfortable during a varied workout.
Training purpose: Flexible sleeves are better suited to lifters who want one sleeve for an entire weight-training session rather than equipment used only for maximal lifts. The WaveWear K2 Knee Sleeve is designed as flexible kinesiology compression support, not as a rigid competition-style powerlifting sleeve.
Which elbow sleeve is best for bench press, pull-ups, and curls?
Choose an elbow-focused sleeve for support around the joint, or a longer forearm sleeve when you want coverage extending from the elbow toward the wrist.
Elbow-joint coverage: The WaveWear E2 Elbow Sleeve wraps directly around the elbow and is suited to lifters who want lightweight joint-focused compression.
Forearm and elbow coverage: The WaveWear F1 Forearm Sleeve extends farther down the arm and combines forearm compression with taping around the elbow area.
Exercise selection: E2 is the more direct choice for presses and general elbow support. F1 may be more suitable when curls, pull-ups, rows, or grip-heavy exercises also leave the forearm feeling fatigued. WaveWear products are sportswear, not medical devices. Persistent or sharp elbow pain should be assessed by a qualified healthcare professional.
