Are they legal? From what I have read, it seems they are not. If you cut the latches off, will they be legal?

Check the approved equipment list on the USAPL web site. If they're not there, they're not legal.

they are not legal

they were two years ago, and when I competed last March they said they weren't anymore, even if I cut the straps off

Ok looks like they are illegal, I was reading the old USAPL rulebook, which simply just said:

"Sleeves"

Now it says:

(h) Neoprene knee sleeves w/o tightening


I will still use them in training to help me get used to having heavier weight on my back and will take them off as I approach my meet.
