I have the juzo dynamic sleeve. It adds enough bulk that my clothes are tight. Is there a less bulky sleeve or do i need all new clothes?  ps.  when i take the sleeve off and try on clothes they fit.   with the sleeve on everything gets twisted and bunched up.  is there a secret as to how to put clothes on over the garmet?

    bhd1 - I would think it depends on the type of garment (cloths)as to how much they twist. I have a loose fitting light jersey that gets all twisted up and screwed around. Unless you wear all tight fitting jerseys etc I would say no you dont need new ones but just a little perseverance. Yeah I know it's a pain but it's doable with practise.

    I just kind of like starting with something sleeveless, that way I have access to the sleeve. Then layering something looser with a loooong sleeve if possible. I just feel more comfy that way.

    It seems like the long sleeve turtlenecks that you have to pull on over the head get twisted . I wonder if there is a secret for putting clothes on that require going over the head?
