Crafted from breathable, latex-free neoprene with adjustable straps, it delivers custom-fit compression that prevents pain and aids recovery from ligament injuries. Lightweight, durable, and machine washable, it’s engineered for athletes demanding both comfort and performance. ## Description The McDavid Knee Brace is easy to fit – simply pull it up into place over the knee using the straps, then fasten the top and bottom hook and loop closures. Because of its lightweight design the McDacvid Knee Brace provides long-lasting knee support during physical activities like Working Out at the Gym, Skiing, Snowboarding, Tennis and Squash or even Swimming. The McDavid stabilizing orthosis protects the knee joint after severe trauma and provides support with health problems like patellar tendonitis, patellar subluxation or even a Runner's Knee (chondromalacia). Moreover, the neoprene sleeve provides therapeutic warmth, and a sewn in patellar buttress aids in patellar tracking. The McDavid Knee Brace is ideal for assisting with recovery from lateral (LCL) and medial (MCL) collateral ligament injuries. The Knee Brace helps to improve kneecap tracking, provides support for the knee joint when bending and helps to reduce stresses on the ligaments. The McDavid Knee Brace offers extra support following knee surgery or injury. The McDavid Knee Brace is made out of neoprene and provides soft tissue compression to reduce pain and swelling. The 3/16" thick neoprene sleeve with nylon facing on both sides and a seamless, breathable, perforated neoprene back panel allow for improved comfort. The open knee of the McDavid Knee Brace 429x enables air flow for additional comfort. The low profile geared polycentric hinge and rigid uprights provide additional medial lateral support. Designed to cushion and protect the knee, the 429x McDavid Knee Brace incorporates rubber condyle pads and hyperextension stops. The McDavid Knee Brace is fitted with geared, aircraft grade aluminium, polycentric hinges on the inside (medial) and outside (lateral) parts of the brace. The hinges provide β€˜normal’ knee movement but reduce painful rotation of the joint and tendons. Two stops prevent knee hyperextension. Adjustable Velcro straps and two fully adjustable hook and loop straps ensure a comfortable, custom fit. The McDavid Knee Brace is available in a range of five sizes from Small to Extra Large and fits either the left or right knee. The Knee Brace is hand washable. ## Features - βœ… IMPROVED DESIGN - McDavid sports knee pads have an open, padded 360Β° back that isolates and supports the kneecap, developed primarily to support the knee and prevent pain, but serve as advanced level protection in all indoor sports. - βœ… PREVENTS PAIN - Our Meniscus and Ligament knee supports warm the knee joint and surrounding muscles to prevent pain and possible injury. - βœ… COMFORTABLE ADJUSTMENT - Designed upper and lower straps ensure a custom fit so they do not move up or down during play.

Feels a bit weird to wear initially but makes a huge difference, knee still clicks occasionally but no weakness.Would suggest getting a size up from the measurement if your anywhere near the top of the range as the do seem to be quite tight. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This product worked for me. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 17 March 2023* The following is just my personal experience of this product. I have no medical knowledge and I'm unable to advise if this product would work for you. You need to do your own research and come to your own conclusions.I Purchased this to see if it would allow me to ski with a ruptured ACL and meniscus tear while waiting for reconstruction surgery. I was able to ski for the whole week of our holiday and I believe it did help with the ACL rupture. I did have some pain from the meniscus tear and I don't think this item helped with that aspect of the injury. However, by restricting the range of bending of my knee I was able to avoid the region where the meniscus tear caused me pain for most of the time. I wore the item quite a few times leading up to the holiday to 'break it in' and found that during the holiday I could wear it all day with reasonable comfort. I'm not saying this would work for everyone as my injury was several months old and was reasonably stable by time we went on holiday. Also, I want to re-iterate that I don't think this would help significantly with a meniscus tear as I believe the pain from this type of injury is due to downward pressure as the joint rotates past the tear. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The cross straps allow for a perfect fit top and bottom support over the kneecap *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 5 August 2017* Has Cross strapping others do not appear to have this. My wife uses this and loves it. I was worried it might be to tight because the size of her knee was just over the 15 inch limit with the medium support. Some reports say it goes loose over time and the elastic fails to the rear. I cannot comment on this.She says it supports her knee well. It looks and feels well made. It it does go lose as they say after lots of use I will modify it with a another strap because the who thing is so well made. The cross straps allow for a perfect fit top and bottom support over the kneecap. I did not see this on some of the other supports and they pushed the kneecap patella down into the knee. The kneecap slider joint that fist starts to ware over time so this design allows for support without pushing down on it. My wife has a brain injury that does not allow her to flex certain muscles or use them together with her limp her knee has failed and physiotherapy may be difficult to support her knee. ## Frequently Bought Together - McDavid Hinged Knee Brace for Men and Women, Knee Brace with Side Stabilizers, Knee Compression Sleeves and Stability Straps for ACL, LCL, Arthritis, Tendonitis, MCL, Patella, Left and Right - McDavid Knee Brace Support with Side Stays, Compression Knee Sleeve & Cross Straps for Patellar Tendon Support, Tendonitis, Arthritis Pain Relief, Recovery, Knee Brace for Men and Women - EXOUS BODYGEAR Knee Brace Meniscus Tear Support For Arthritis Acl, Mcl Pain Patented 4-way Adjustable Wraparound Strap Dual Side Stabilizer For Patella Stability Size [medium] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.es/products/48862749-mcdavid-429x](https://www.desertcart.es/products/48862749-mcdavid-429x) --- *Product available on Desertcart Spain* *Store origin: ES* *Last updated: 2026-08-22*
