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

I have one knee that needed a replacement in 1990. They advised me to wait till I was older. Over the years I have purchased numerous knee braces for this knee with varying results. Recently, my other knee began giving me problems and I once again found myself in search of a solid knee brace. I probably own more knee braces than WalMart and CVS combined! This brace is it!! It fits, it is very sturdy and I can wear it all day. I work in the yard a lot and this brace allows me to do so without pain. I bought one for each knee and am so very pleased with the fit (does not slide) and the sturdiness. I wish I had found this brace years ago. I thought the cost was reasonable. To be honest, when you've searched as long as I have, price becomes secondary to being able to wear it and have it do what I need it to do. It is super easy to put on with just a couple of adjustments. Kuddos for design, function and fit!

I've been wearing this brace for about 3 months now, and am very satisfied. Yes, it's a little pricey but it is very sturdy and does the job. I feel like I got good value for my money. It fits very snugly. That means I don't wear it all day, it gets hot and sweaty underneath and I have to take it off. So I use it when I go out to do yardwork, or go for a walk or hiking, etc. I take it off when I'm just around the house. Take the metal stays out, throw it in the laundry with other clothes, then air-dry it and it is good to go. I like that it has multiple straps on the top and the bottom. I feel that it securely locks to my leg above and below the knee. The first one I got was too snug, I had to return it and get the next larger size. That one also feels snug, but I feel that snug-ivity gives me the support I need. The instructions are laughable. It is fairly self-evident how to adjust the straps, but if you try to follow the instructions, it is like they were written in reverse. So just chuck those instructions. But the rest of the brace is high quality, if you want secure support then this is the brace for you.

Titles says it all. I ordered a handful of different knee braces from amazon, and this one is by far the highest quality, slim, and offers the greatest support. Not super inclusive for plus sized people with thicker thighs. I wear a size 12/14 in jeans, ordered a XX-large based on my measurements (largest size offered on Amazon) and it’s snug like a hug - a big ol bear hug. I am hoping that it “wears in” with time and becomes a little less suffocating for my thunderous thighs.. only time will tell.

I am pleased to say that I’ve been wearing one of these on each knee every day for the past three years and they are still keeping me going. I am 6’-2” tall and weigh 297lbs and I have had surgeries on both knees for meniscus tears, ACL tears, broken bone/cartilage removal (loose bodies), and arthritis. I could not function or do my job without wearing these everyday. One Velcro strap is losing its hold, but I wrap it with electrical tape to keep it in place. The design, quality, and longevity of these braces is astonishing. It relieves my pain and allows me to climb ladders and scaffolding to do my job. One amazing design feature is they stay put all day long. They have never slid down my leg, regardless of my activity. Running, cycling, crawling, it doesn’t matter- these braces stay in place. One of the best investments to improve my mobility that I’ve ever made and at a great price point.

We do a lot of hiking, these are great for keeping stability. The rods are removable for washing when a sweat is worked up.

I needed this as I dislocated my knee, needed something to stabilize a shaky knee. It arrived very quickly. When I ordered I followed directions and measured at the knee but they should change it to measure at the thigh. It was so tight at the thigh I didn't even strap it and it still cut off circulation. The quality is excellent and stabilized my knee but had to return because it was so tight I felt clicking in my thigh. I really should have ordered the larger size but following the measuring directions it put me in the smaller size. I ended up buying another one that had measuring 5" above the knee. Would definitely buy another one if I could be fit correctly.

This knee brace has been a miracle worker for me. I fell while playing golf eight months ago and my knee has been hurting on and off since then but lately has been extremely painful. My orthopedic doctor wants to do a total knee replacement but I’m not willing to do that right now. My son told me to get this brace because it had worked so well for him. I was at the point where I could barely walk because the pain was so bad. As soon as I put it on the pain went away. I left it on for about 4 hours and even when I took it off the pain was gone. So now I just put it on if I need to for a little while and then I’m good to go. It is a little bulky but who cares when it takes the pain away! It’s easy to put on and adjust.

Very comfortable and supportive.
