strongman equipment question

[eric89]

I was watching strongman and noticed people were either inzer knee wraps or these blue and white knee wraps. The blue and white sleeves are also for elbows. I was wondering who makes them and were I could get them. I train in powerlifting, but by joints have been taking a beating during bench. So I figured I would get a pair for taining then just go without during competition. Again, what brand are the blue and white knee and elbow sleeves that the strongmen wear?

no they are not knee wraps. They are like a sleeve that slips over there knees to keep them tight and warm so there is likelyhood of a blowout do to cold tendon and muscle or strain from the muscle not being held tight. I will look some more and see if I can find them
