GUIDE TO WASH KNEE SLEEVES

GUIDE TO WASH KNEE SLEEVES

Caring for knee sleeves is essential. After all, we sweat a lot during our workouts, and knee sleeves can absorb bad odor.

Preventions such as turning your knee sleeves inside out after a session and letting them air dry. To maximize the lifetime of knee sleeves, here’s how to take care of them.

1) NORMAL WASH

Depending on frequency of use and smell, the easiest way to wash them regularly with other washable laundry.

2) INTENSE WASH

For intense wash soak knee sleeves in boiling water for 5 minutes then soak it out let it cool for some time. Once knee sleeves are cooled down, rinse them out with water and sit out to air dry. 

3) EXTREME WASH

For extreme cases and to remove mildew, using distilled white vinegar and soaking the knee sleeves in a (hot) water-vinegar solution is an alternative. You’d soak them for about 10 minutes and then hand wash or throw them in with your other laundry. Leave them out to air dry and you’re good to go. 

4) REGULAR MAINTENANCE

Washing your knee sleeves from time to time is also good so they can regain their tightness and support. Over time, the compression material can get a bit loose, so to return it to its strong form give your knee sleeves a rinse.
