Medi Genumedi Knee Support Sand 6

Why Choose the Medi Genumedi Knee Support – Sand, Size 6?

Size 6 in the Genumedi range sits in the medium-to-large fit category — a size that covers a broad range of adult knee circumferences above the mid-range and below the extra-large end of the scale. For users in this fit range who have not found a satisfactorily fitting knee sleeve in standard mid-range sizes, Size 6 provides the additional circumference needed for correct sleeve placement and effective therapeutic compression. The sand colour is a skin-proximate neutral that reduces visibility under clothing — particularly useful in professional settings where the sleeve is worn under trousers or work clothing. The therapeutic design is consistent with all Genumedi variants: the anatomically shaped elastic knit delivers graduated compression across the full knee joint surface, and the integrated silicone patella ring provides targeted, consistent guidance of the kneecap during movement. The patella ring's gentle surrounding pressure helps maintain correct patella tracking and reduces the irregular contact with the femoral groove that creates patellofemoral pain. Anti-slip silicone dots at the upper and lower sleeve edges prevent migration during activity. Clima Comfort and Clima Fresh manage skin comfort and hygiene for extended daily wear.

Usage & Care

Sizing: Size 6 fits a medium-to-large knee circumference. Confirm measurements against Medi's Genumedi sizing chart before ordering to ensure correct fit and patella ring alignment.

Application: Step into the sleeve from below and slide upward until the silicone patella ring is centred over the kneecap. Smooth the sleeve evenly.

Patella Ring Check: Confirm the ring is centred over the kneecap before activity. Reposition if needed.

Wearing: Wear throughout the day as directed. Remove if numbness, tingling, or skin irritation develops.

Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with mild detergent. Do not tumble dry, bleach, or iron. Air dry flat.

Replacement: Replace when the sleeve has lost elasticity, the patella ring has deformed, or anti-slip dots no longer hold effectively.
