Our take on the McDavid HexForce Knee/Elbow/Shin Pad

The McDavid HexForce is a single compression pad with a hexagonal foam core, sold for knees, elbows or shins. It is built for high-impact sports: the nylon-spandex sleeve holds the pad tight against the joint, and the hex pattern flexes with movement rather than blocking it. It is a support and bump-protection pad, not a brace, so it will not stabilize a torn ligament. It is sold one pad at a time, so a pair means buying two.

Best forVolleyball and basketball players wanting knee paddingWrestlers and grapplers covering knees or elbows
Skaters and riders protecting shins or knees
Athletes with minor joint soreness who want light compression
Pros
  • Hex foam flexes with the joint instead of bunching
  • Compression sleeve stays put without straps
  • Works on knee, elbow or shin
  • Machine-washable nylon-spandex blend
  • Low profile enough to wear under shorts or a jersey
Cons
  • Sold as one pad, not a pair
  • No rigid shell, so limited protection against hard impacts
  • Compression fit can feel tight or roll at the edges
  • Sizing runs by alpha size, so fit varies by body part

Questions and answers

Is the McDavid HexForce worth it?
Yes if you want light bump protection and compression for volleyball, wrestling or skating. It is not a substitute for a hinged brace if you need joint stability.
Does it come as a pair?
No. The count is one pad, so order two if you want both knees or both elbows covered.
How do I pick a size?
McDavid sizes by alpha (S through XL) based on circumference around the joint. Measure the knee or elbow and check the brand's size chart, since the same size is used across body parts.
Can I wear it under clothing?
Yes. The sleeve is low profile and slides under shorts, tights or a jersey, though a very tight fit may show through thin fabric.
Is it good for knee pain?
It gives mild compression and padding, which some users find helps with soreness from floor contact. It does not treat ligament or cartilage injuries.
When is it cheapest?
Multi-packs and end-of-season team-sport sales tend to be the lowest points. Compare the per-pad price across stores rather than the pack price.
