Look good and be comfortable with Brace Under Sleeve Fashions™ — a decorative under sleeve designed to be worn under a knee brace or elbow brace. This fashion under sleeve features a designer fold-over top cuff that matches the rest of the sleeve, with only the right sides of the fabric showing. The wide top cuff helps keep the under sleeve in place and prevents shifting and slipping. Available in custom sizes, in soft, cozy, stretchable fabrics for a perfect fit.
When Do You Need a Brace Under Sleeve?
- Skin protection under a knee or elbow brace — Hard brace edges, straps, and hinges can cause redness, chafing, and skin irritation with extended wear. A soft fabric under sleeve acts as a protective barrier between your skin and the brace.
- Adding style to your brace — The decorative fold-over cuff peeks out above and below the brace, adding a pop of color and pattern that makes your brace look intentional rather than clinical.
- All-day comfort during long-term brace wear — For patients wearing a brace for weeks or months, the under sleeve makes extended wear significantly more comfortable by cushioning the skin and wicking away moisture.
- Post-surgery knee or elbow recovery — After ACL reconstruction, meniscus repair, or elbow surgery, a brace under sleeve keeps you comfortable and stylish throughout your recovery.
- Sports and physical therapy — The stretchy, form-fitting fabric stays in place during movement, making it suitable for physical therapy exercises and light activity.

Brace Under Sleeve FAQs
What's the difference between a brace under sleeve and a brace cover?
A brace under sleeve is worn underneath your brace, directly against your skin, to protect against chafing and add comfort. A brace cover is worn over the outside of the brace to conceal it and add style. Many customers use both together for maximum comfort and a complete look.
How do I measure for a custom size?
Measure your leg or arm without the brace on for an under sleeve. You'll need three measurements: Top Width (circumference at the thigh or bicep), Bottom Width (circumference at the calf or forearm), and Length (from top to bottom of where you need coverage). Enter all three in inches at checkout.
Will the sleeve stay in place under my brace?
Yes — the wide fold-over top cuff is specifically designed to grip and stay secure, preventing the sleeve from shifting or bunching under the brace during wear and movement.
Can I wear this under pants or leggings?
Yes. The slim, stretchy profile fits smoothly under clothing. The decorative cuff can be folded over the top of the brace or tucked in depending on your preference.
Are custom sizes refundable?
Custom sizes are non-refundable, so please measure carefully. Contact us before ordering if you have sizing questions.
