Customers praised this knee brace for exceptional patella support and pain relief. The "cross over straps" effectively reduce knee pain, while the soft inner material ensures comfort during extended wear. Shoppers found it "extensively adjustable" for personalized fit and noted it stays securely in place during rehab exercises and running.
The reason I bought it was for the patella support, the small cross over straps which over and under the knee cap is really good in reducing the pain.
I bought this brace to use while I recover from a meniscus tear in my knee. It's soft and well made, plus extensively adjustable for really personalized fit.
It is nice having the inside material that protects the leg from the texture of the brace itself so it feels comfortable to wear for several hours.
This knee brace has been a lifesaver! It provides the perfect support to my knee and it has helped with the pain along with providing support. I highly recommend.
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 doesn't move.

Yes, this brace helps relieve knee stiffness by providing stable support and reducing pain. It comes in a universal size with adjustable straps (no specific XL or 2XL), but the flexible fit should work for most users. We recommend giving it a try.
What is the difference between a patellar strap and a patellar brace?
A patellar brace offers more substantial support than a simple strap. While a strap targets just the tendon below the kneecap, a brace typically covers more of the knee joint and features a circular opening (open patella) designed to relieve pressure directly on the kneecap and help guide its tracking during movement. This makes it suitable for a wider range of conditions, including kneecap misalignment.
Who is the open patella design of the brace best for?
The open patella design is ideal for those experiencing pain directly on or behind the kneecap, such as with runner's knee or chondromalacia (softening of the cartilage). It helps by reducing direct compression on the kneecap bone and providing tracking support to keep it centered during movement. The opening also allows for better breathability during intense activities.
What conditions can the brace help with?
This brace is particularly effective for conditions related to kneecap tracking and stability. It's commonly used for patellofemoral pain syndrome (runner's knee), patellar tendinitis, patellar subluxation (partial dislocation), and chondromalacia patella. It can also help alleviate pain during daily activities by redistributing pressure and stabilizing the joint.
Does the brace stay in place during exercise?
Yes, the brace is designed to stay securely in place during physical activity. It typically features adjustable straps (with hook-and-loop fasteners) that allow you to customize the fit for a personalized and secure hold. This ensures the brace provides consistent support and stability even during dynamic movements.
