Sport protection for exercise and everyday activities
A sport protection fits around the part of your body that needs extra support. Depending on the model, the material provides compression and warmth, while the fit helps keep the support in place as you move. Always check the product’s intended use and choose the correct size.
Base your choice of sport protection on the activity. A wrist support and a knee support serve different purposes and should fit the joint where they are used. The sport protection in this category are soft supports, not rigid protection against impacts or falls. Follow the product instructions and seek medical advice if you have an injury or persistent symptoms.

Frequently asked questions about sport protection
How do I choose the right sport protection for my knee?
Choose a knee support with the right fit and adjustment options for your needs. Biltema’s adjustable model fastens with hook-and-loop straps. Follow the product instructions for positioning and tightening; the correct fit is more important than tightening the support as much as possible.
How long can you wear sport protection?
How long you can wear one depends on the model and why you are using it. Follow the product instructions and any advice from a healthcare professional. A sport protection should feel comfortable and should not cause chafing or restrict blood circulation.
What size elbow support should I choose?
The elbow supports are available in S/M, L and XL. Refer to the sizing information on the product page. The support should fit securely around the elbow without causing discomfort or slipping when you move your arm.
How tight should a sport protection be?
A sport protection should fit securely without restricting blood circulation. Loosen or remove it if your fingers or toes become cold, change colour or start to tingle. Always follow the instructions for the specific model.
Can you sleep wearing sport protection?
Do not assume that a sport protection designed for exercise is also suitable for overnight use. Check the product instructions and ask a healthcare professional if you need support at night.
