Rocktape Assassins Knee Sleeves Protection & Support For Sports Fitness Gym 5mm NEW from RockTape, the ultimate weapon for workout domination - Assassins, an entirely new generation of knee sleeves. Assassins will keep you ahead of the game--keeping your knees supported and protected while slaying reps and crushing WODs. Product Features Provide joint support during gruelling workouts and lifts Protect the knee from abrasions during lunges or obstacle course racing Provide VMO (vastus medialis oblique) support Stay put with a unique organic design, won't slip down during activity Keep the knee joint warm between exercises May help reduce non-specific knee pain May help improve patella tracking over the knee cap Assassins can be used in a variety of sports and fitness pursuits, including weightlifting, high-intensity interval training, obstacle course racing, running, cycling and other functional fitness endeavours. Comes in pairs Assassins are available in sizes extra small through extra-large, with two thickness options: 5mm for moderate support and 7mm for maximum support. Built for Competition Assassins were formulated with the unique needs of athletes in mind, and unlike sleeves from other companies, are much more than a re-purposed medical knee support. We fine-tuned Assassins through three years of feedback from both RockTape customers and professional athletes like 2008 CrossFit Games Champion Jason Khalipa, Ashley Horner, Marcus Filly, and Neal Maddox to provide the ultimate knee support. The result is a pair of knee sleeves that are suitable for the most gruelling workouts, lifting events, and obstacle course races - yet comfortable enough for the weekend warrior. Designed for Performance Taller than standard sleeves, and carefully constructed with a unique organic design, Assassins support the knee and compresses the vastus medals oblique (VMO) at its insertion point above the patella. This helps ensure proper stability and tracking of the knee, and can often dramatically reduce non-specific knee pain, particularly during squats. The extra-tall design also keeps sleeves in place - preventing excess slippage and shifting during workouts - a common complaint of competing sleeves. We also believe that every athlete deserves two sleeves - that's why Assassins are always sold as a pair. Nearly Indestructible Engineered with a synthetic fabric shell bonded to SBR neoprene and secured via double-mauser stitching, Assassins comfortably support the knee joint through countless workouts. Rigorous life-cycle testing by both our athletes and automated test programs provides superior quality. Specifications SBR Neoprene Double Mauser stitching Durable-yet flexible front panels 4-way stretch lycra side panels Extra tall design for VMO compression Sizing Measure the circumference of your knee around the centre of your patella. Assassins start very snug and can take a few sessions to break in. If you measure on the higher end of a size, we recommend ordering the next size up.
