    I've decided that I want to take up jogging. I haven't jogged in years, even for a ball on a footie pitch, and due to past injuries my knees are somewhat, eh, delicate. So I'm looking for knee supports, but really don't want to splash a fortune on them. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Elverys should have some vulkan neoprene ones and IIRC they have a 15% off sale on atm.

    I bought some really good ones in Boots but they were 30 quid as far as i can remember, well worth it though.

    Do they provide a lot of support? I went for a jog tonight, and immediately I felt my knees at me. They weren't sore or anything, just not exactly how they should be.

    Hard to answer on the support - some would be more for keeping your tracking in the correct alingment.

    Neoprene is good for keeping heat in the joints.

    They might be uncomfortable when running though - maybe the band under the knee would work for you, but hard to know.
