Now that lifters are able to wear tight-fitting, full body, one piece unitards (yes, covering the knees) did anyone wear one in competitions this year?

I think that more freedom in the competition equipament, may help, but not as significatively as people thinks

I think it's just a matter of personal taste. I would get one if there were sellers.

Chris, I like to use knee sleeves in competition and before there had to be skin between them and my leggings on my singlet. Now I can just hike my knee sleeves up over my leggings like is comfortable.

The bar wins a better slide over the skin of the leg, avoiding the (against norms and dangerous for the following competitors) use of lubrificants on the legs.
