Product Features...and the benefits you'll experience!

Moderate Support

Hinges on both sides of the knee provide additional support than a traditional knee sleeve.

Compression

Provides enough compression to the soft tissue of the knee to ensure maximum comfort.

Sleeve Vs. Wraparound

Sleeves require you to remove your shoe and slide the brace over your foot. Fits more snugly and stays in place. Once it's on it's requires little adjustment. The negative of a sleeve is it doesn't work well over pants. Wraparound braces are easier to apply especially for those with less hand strength and can be worn over thin pants. The velcro can be tightened or loosened for a more adjustable fit. Great for users who can't bend over as well and have trouble getting a sleeve on or off. The negative of a wraparound brace is the velcro can loosen during activity requiring a quick tightening of the Velcro.

Open Vs. Closed Popliteal

The popliteal describes the area in the back of the knee where your knee bends. When a knee brace has an opening the back we say it has an "Open Popliteal". The benefits of an open popliteal knee brace is they tend to be more comfortable than other knee braces that are closed in the back. There is less pinching of the material when your knee is bent. They are also a bit cooler as more skin is exposed.

Neoprene Vs. Drytex

Neoprene has a more compressive and warmth capability than Drytex. The Drytex material is an alternative to Neoprene and constructed of a unique nylon core and polyester Lycra fabric that allows for improved airflow. This fabric provides compression and support, yet allows for breathability. Ideal for patients who have allergies or irritations to Neoprene or live in warm weather climates.

Contoured Condyle Pads

Helps keep the brace secure on your knee and ensures maximum comfort to your condyle, the smooth surface area at the end of the bone, forming part of the joint.
