- Graduated Compression Knit — Provides targeted pressure to support muscles and tendons while facilitating healthy circulation for faster recovery.
- Breathable Multi-Stretch Fabric — Made from a blend of nylon and elastic fibers that allow for maximum moisture wicking and air permeability.
- Non-Slip Contoured Fit — The "Large" sizing is anatomically shaped to prevent the sleeve from rolling or sliding down during intense movements.

How to Use
- Slide the sleeve over your hand and pull it up your arm until it reaches the elbow.
- Center the middle portion of the support directly over the olecranon (the bony point of the elbow).
- Smooth out any wrinkles to ensure a flat, even application against the skin.
- Verify that the "Large" size provides a firm yet comfortable fit without cutting off circulation or causing skin discoloration.
Warnings and Precautions
- Check the fit regularly; if you experience persistent tingling or loss of sensation in your fingers, remove the support immediately.
- Do not use on areas where topical creams or ointments have just been applied, as they may damage the elastic fibers.
- Keep the product clean by hand-washing with mild detergent and allowing it to air dry flat to maintain its compressive strength.
