Anyway, on to the brace... My knee has finally gotten so bad that I can't let it go any longer and am going to see an orthopedist again. I'm pretty sure the soft tissue is so damaged that it's virtually useless. I have tried almost every style of brace on the market (except the really expensive ones), and none of them have offered enough support in the right places and been comfortable to wear for any period of time... But then I found THIS brace!! I hadn't even realized how much pain my knee was constantly in until I put this brace on!
1) The inner silky sleeve which protects your leg from rubbing on the outer fabric, and is also breathable and moisture wicking is a complete game changer! One would think such a small detail would be insignificant, but in terms of comfort and wearability it makes all the difference in the world!
2) The outer fabric is thinner and more light weight than most neoprene braces, making it more slim and comfortable, while still providing good compression and support. Also, the entire outside can be used to stick the velcro to, thus allowing you to position the straps exactly where you need them to be for optimal support.
3) The 2 extra patella support bands are AMAZING!!! They work far better than I ever could have imagined at keeping everything in alignment, and applying just enough pressure to give stability and relieve pain, without being too tight or uncomfortable, as they are fully adjustable.
4) The side supports are great! They definitely offer necessary added stability. The brace does limit your range of motion some, but that's really the whole point of a brace, since too great of movements will only lead to further injury and damage of an already weak or hurt area.
Hands down, this the the absolute best brace ever!!! The price isn't much higher than your generic designs, and it is well worth it! (Also, I visited the retailers store and received a 25% off coupon to use on Amazon for any of their products, so that was helpful). But even at full price it's worth it. No other brace is designed quite as well, or offers the special features this one does. Plus, it is from a small business in the UK, designed by a guy determined to make a brace which would assist him with his own knee problems. The thought and care that went into making it is really evident, from construction to fit and function. It also comes with a 12 month warranty, and they send a paper with their contact info encouraging anyone who has an issue for any reason to contact them for resolution. They seem to be a good company who truly cares about their products and helping people. I very highly recommend that anyone with knee issues get this brace.
The only suggestion I would make is for them to also make this in a plus sized version. Last year a medication I was put on caused A LOT of very rapid weight gain. Happily, stopping the med has reversed the process. But, had I tried to get this brace last year, it would not have fit my leg. Heavier people tend to have more joint problems, but there is a serious lack of good, affordable plus sized options of braces. I strongly encourage this company to fill that need. I am going to write to them regarding this issue. If you get this brace, or if you are a plus sized person whom this brace will not fit, I suggest that you also write to the company regarding this issue. I'm sure if enough people do it they will see there is a need and will work to fill it.
Thank you for reading my long winded review. I hope you found it to be helpful.
Once more for good measure... BUY THIS BRACE!!! (you won't regret it).
Namaste.
A LITTLE BACKGROUND TO EXPLAIN MY FANATICISM ABOUT THIS BRACE:
I have a condition called "general joint laxity," which means that almost all of the joints in my body are "looser" than they should be. In most places on the body, this is a neutral or even good thing, but NOT when it comes to the knees. I frequently (at least twice per month) dislocate the knee I had the ACL repaired on over a decade ago, which can happen at any time, often without warning, from a variety of causes, sometimes even from something as mild as sitting incorrectly on the floor or going down stairs. My point is, for me to be an active person in any regard, I need to have reliable support in the knee area, to keep my joint safe and my mind at ease enough for me to get the job done.
COMFORT:
I've tried A LOT of braces, and have gone through the tedious tasks of getting special orthopedic fittings, often to get little or no relief from this issue (or at least, not enough to put my mind at ease), so I'm always leery of trying a new brace. I recently started running again and decided to try this one because of it's impressive amount and quality of reviews, and was very excited by how well it works for me. Most braces are extremely unforgiving and uncomfortable, causing excess heat and sweat which often is accompanied by a rash; however, this one is comfortable enough that I actually forget I'm wearing it most of the time, and is easy enough to adjust that if it does start to feel uncomfortable, I can quickly and easily shift it around to make it feel better. Part of the reason it's so much gentler on the skin is because of a kind of silky hidden sleeve that is sewn into the inside of the brace (you can't really see it in the picture), which doesn't make it slide around, but does protect your skin from the scratchiness of the outer material. It's designed so that it accomplishes more with less fabric and leg-coverage, too, which is a big plus.
SUPPORT:
This by far has the BEST support of any knee brace I've tried, and it's made even better by how adaptable it is. Because of my anatomical abnormality, I need varying strengths of support in VERY specific points on my knee, which has often been a challenge as most braces have only a small range in which the straps will fasten/adhere correctly (and these never line up the way I really need them to.) Since this brace has straps coming from both sides, I can focus the support on the outside of my knee where I need it most, and still have a good amount of support on the inner side of the knee without making it extremely difficult to bend and move well; I especially love that the two skinnier straps go around the outside, because I can cross them over one another to make the fit tighter. This cross design also allows me to put the opening in just the right place on my kneecap (which is slightly to the outside), where most other braces I've tried don't fit correctly unless you center the hole right over the knee cap. The other brilliant thing about the design is that the entire surface of the brace is Velcro-y, so you can literally stick the straps ANYWHERE on the front to get the perfect fit everywhere on and around the kneecap, instead of being forced into one or two configurations that may or may not work for your leg. The one warning I will give is that it will take a couple of tries to find the "sweet spot" since their is so much flexibility with it, so start slow until you figure out where to put everything, how tight to pull the straps, etc. I'll also say that my knees are in need of lateral support, because my condition is often exacerbated by torque on the joint rather than impact, so I'm not sure how the brace will perform for other situations.
QUALITY:
I haven't had the brace long, but it's already holding up better than most I've tried. Many other braces will have the Velcro all fuzzy on the soft side and not sticking as well on the hard side after just a few uses, but this one appears to be stronger. Since it is so small in surface area and light, it also doesn't retain as much sweat and is easier to wash/air out, which keeps it from deteriorating due to excess moisture (this also keeps it from taking on that terrible "gym bag" smell, too.) The seams are sturdy and the straps are very solid, and they are stretchy enough but not overly so, so the integrity of the shape isn't easily compromised; everything on it is well-reinforced, and the fabric is of a high quality. To be honest though, even if the brace falls apart sooner than I'd like (which I seriously doubt), I will probably continue to purchase them because of what a good job they do while they are in good shape. It's quite a bargain, especially for someone who has to find one that's JUST RIGHT to make it worth it!
Two things I'd change about this to make it perfect for me: 1) make the outer sleeve and strap material a little thicker (10-25% or so?), and 2) make the vertical bars that provide support on each side of the knee a little stiffer. I think the combo of those two things would give that extra amount of stability I feel like I need. Don't get me wrong, this works great, but that would make it perfect for me. I'll update w/more as I run it through its paces...
Top reviews from other countries
The brace is really adjustable in every place which is more so than other styles out there its also quite lightweight and easily wearable under clothes.
I have used it several times now from helping to do knee rehab exercises (angled squats) and also it is very good to run in, it stays in place for a good 15 min, normally i have to adjust other ones every few minutes this one does really stay put.
Def worth buying - one thing is you have to make sure you fit the guidelines I emailed the brand as they have the measurements only in inches and not metric so a little working out but other than that superb!
Makes my day wearing this brace and I can’t recommend it enough.
