Solid, competition-legal knee wraps that reviewers rate well for heavy squats and deadlifts, though a stitched loop end complicates putting them on with shoes still tied.

Overview
A pair of 78 inch elasticated knee wraps for powerlifting and heavy squats, made from a cotton and polyester blend with a hook and loop closure, and approved for USPA and IPL competition use.
These are compression wraps for stabilizing the knee joint during heavy lifts, not a soft knee sleeve, and the competition approval matters mainly to lifters who compete under USPA, IPL, WPC or GPC rules. Reviewers who lift heavy describe real support during squats and deadlifts, though at least one found the wraps not stiff enough for maximal attempts and prefers longer, stiffer wraps for that purpose. The two color options differ in stiffness according to one reviewer, who found the white and black pair softer and less prone to chafing than the pink and black pair.
- 78 inch by 3 inch elasticated wrap
- USPA, IPL, WPC and GPC compliant
- Cotton and polyester blend fabric
- Hook and loop closure with slip-resistant loop
Who it's for
Suits powerlifters and heavy squat or deadlift trainees who want compression support and, for competitors, federation approval. Less suited to lifters wanting maximal stiffness for very heavy attempts, or anyone who wants a slip-on sleeve rather than a wrap.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Lifters training heavy squats and deadlifts report real knee support and comfort, with one reaching a 700 lb personal record while wearing them. The most common complaint is the sewn loop at one end, which means removing shoes to put the wraps on unless the stitching is cut and resewn. A couple of reviewers also found the wraps slide down during heavy squats or wanted a stiffer wrap for maximal lifts.
