421 Knee Sleeve Brace

Great brace, my son wears for football. Says it’s the best knee brace he has had. We have tried dozens

I got this 2 strap version to use at the gym and while working out in the yard. Just rec'd and made one trip to the gym. I'll update / edit later if my opinion changes. The brace did not slip down at all while doing elliptical at the gym. The straps kept it in place, unlike my older strapless neoprene sleeve. The side 'springs' seem to add some stability to this as well. I have a bulkier / sturdier / expensive Corflex hinged braced from the VA and this is almost as good for support or pain relief. This less costly ($23) one from McDavid will be great if it lasts 6-12 months of rugged wear. I did not feel restricted while wearing at the gym. I think this is the same as the Shock Doctor brand. The brace did have a rubbery odor when I unpackaged it. I hosed it down with Lysol and its fine now. I measured approx 17-17.5 / XL and its pretty snug. I may opt for XXL when I have to replace this one. I would think one could order up and use the straps to tighten it without any trouble.

This got complicated. I first ordered the Large (15 - 17") as people said they fit tight. My knee is 15 1/4" so that seemed to make sense as the medium was rated 14-15. It fits OK, but I need to crank the straps over pretty tight & then I have a tuck on the top of my thigh, which hasn't been a bother so far. After a few uses I found that I need to crank it tighter & the Velcro is now going over the female side & pulling away at the stitching on the bottom, which will make it wear out sooner I guess. So, I ordered a medium just to see what it was like & wow was it tight! I could not get it up all the way so I sent it back (hurray Prime). To me the sizes should be 12-14, 14-16, 16-18, 18 - 20, etc. but I guess they have reasons for making them the way they do. For the money however it is a great support & way better than the Ortho one I had before.

Excelente muy buena excelente producto

This knee brace was purchased for my teenage athletic son before surgery. Hr was having instability issues of the knee and was able to get back on the basketball court and play for a month prior to surgery. The brace held his knee in place but is flexible. Snug fit, recommend sizing up if you are not sure.

I wear one of these on both knees every day. They are a Little tough to get on and off. Especially when my knees are swollen. This is the third or fourth pair I've owned. They work well, and relieve/prevent pain like I think they should. The Metal Stays are a different story. This pair has not lasted a month, before they poked out the bottom of the pocket they are in. 2 on one brace, and 1 on the other? That issue took 4-5 months to happen on the last pair I bought. Quality and fit have gone down hill since I bought my first pair, many many Moons Ago (at Sport Chalet) sorry if that makes you feel OLD. Got well over a year out that pair. Edit: bought another recently pair I've worn them for ONE WEEK, plus a day or two and the stays are already popping out. Build quality is getting worse with every pair.

It was for my husband and it fit very good and give him the support he needed.Very good product.

Nicely constructed with quality materials. The sizing instructions you use to calculate your fit was accurate. Knee Braces fit tight and snug as you would expect it to do. I instantly felt an improvement once installed but not 100% - I would 75-80% which made s HUGE difference pain-wise. My pain was definitely more bearable! However... just a word of caution. Do not use this device against bare skin, it will cause blisters! A friend of mine had the same experience. She suggested that I pre-wrap the area where the Knee Brace comes in contact with the skin to prevent blistering which are extremely painful after the blister pops. Taking this precaution to heart, you will find this brand or any other brand for that matter, a very helpful tool to combat joint pain.
