Avatar Member 5517, 1538 posts SQ 160, BP 165, DL 201526.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | I got a £20 off voucher for strength shop. I was thinking of trying knee sleeves for farmers and squats. Are 7mm much of a much or are some better than others please? | ||

Member 5964, 573 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 265665.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | I've got giants pro neoprenes and rehbands, pretty similar in terms of effect but the rehbands have far greater durability. Think all 7mm sleeves feel roughly the same. Also have some double ply strength shop ones, they definitely offer more support and can actually add some weight to your squat/deadlift. I tend to only wear them in a comp though | ||

I've seen on Delroy Mcqueen's recent squat vids he's using the new SS sleeves. He had posted on one vid he was going to do a review of them, which I was eagerly awaiting but don't think he has yet. (got he SBD's now anyway) | ||
