NEENCA Professional Knee Brace for Knee Pain, Hinged Knee Support with Patented X-Strap Fixing System, Medical for Pain Relief, Arthritis, Meniscus Tear, ACL, PCL, MCL, Runner, Sport -FSA/HSA Eligible

THIS KNEE BRACE IS ALMOST AS GOOD AS A PROFESSIONALLY MADE PRODUCT. I AM A PHYSICAL THERAPIST AND THE PROFESSIONAL BRACES ARE FITTED TO THE PATIENT THROUGH A PROFESSIONAL WHO TAKES YOUR MEASUREMENTS AND MORE AND THEY DO THIS FOR A LIVING.THE SIZE CHART IS SPOT ON. IF YOU FALL INBETWEEN SIZES, ORDER THE LARGER SIZE. THE VELCRO IS PROFESSIONAL GRADE AND WILL NOT QUIT ON YOU AS YOU SEE IN CHEAPER BRACES. I DONT FIND IT TO BE BULKY AND I FEEL THE DESIGN IS MADE TO HELP WITH A VARIETY OF DIAGNOSES. IT IS VERY COMFORTABLE AND AT THE SAME TIME, IT SUPPORTS YOUR KNEE. THE TWO SIDE UPRIGHTS PROTECTS THE LIGAMENTS ON EITHER SIDE OF YOUR KNEE AND THE OPENING AT THE KNEE HELPS WITH PATELLAR TENDONITIS AND DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH THE NATURAL TRACKING OF THE KNEE CAP. WHEN YOU FLEX OR EXTEND, THE KNEE CAP DOES NOT MOVE UP AND DOWN IN A STRAIGHT LINE. RATHER, IT FOLLOWS AN “S” CURVE. THIS BRACE DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH PATELLAR TRACKING. THE DESIGN DIMINISHES PAIN FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS AND CAN BE ALSO BE USED FOR ACL, PCL, AND MENISCUS PROBLEMS/TEARS. THE DESIGN IS MEANT TO SUPPORT YOU WHEN YOU AMBULATE, AND THE METAL UPRIGHTS DONT INTERFERE WITH THAT. STRUCTURALLY, THIS BRACE IS EXCELLENT. IT CAN BE WORN EVEN WHEN SITTING IN A CHAIR OR WHEELCHAIR.THE PRICE IS EXTREMELY REASONABLE FOR THE BRACE AND SUPPORT YOU GET. IF YOU WERE FITTED FOR A BRACE, MINIMALLY ITS $200 and COULD GO TO $500, AND PROBABLY MORE. DEPENDING ON YOUR INSURANCE, It is OUT OF POCKET. THAT WOULD BE A LARGE CHUNK OF CHANGE FOR ANYONE. ALSO, MEASUREMENT WISE, I FELL ON THE MAX NUMBER FOR THE 3x, so I OPTED FOR THE 4x. I’m SO GLAD I DID BECAUSE THE 3x WOULD NOT HAVE FIT. AS A RESULT, I HAVE A LITTLE EXTRA ROOM AROUND THE KNEE CAP, BUT I USED A SMALL BRACE THAT IS THIN AND GOES AROUND THE PATELLAR TENDON BECAUSE I DO HAVE TENDONITIS AND OSTEOARTHRITIS. I HAD ONE ON HAND, BUT THEY ARE SUPER CHEAP IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN MY SITUATION.MY AMBULATION HAS IMPROVED CONSIDERABLY. IT IS ALL DUE TO THIS BRACE. I ORDERED TWO OTHER ONES THAT WERE NOT ANY GOOD BEFORE I FOUND THIS ONE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT, AND I WILL RECOMMEND IT TO THE APPROPRIATE PATIENTS, AND FOR THOSE WHO’S INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER A CUSTOM BRACE THAT THEY CANNOT AFFORD.AGAIN, I FEEL THIS IS AS CLOSE TO A CUSTOM BRACE THAT IS SUPER CHEAP COMPARED TO THE COST OF A CUSTOM BRACE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT AND GIVE IT AN A+It is NOT PERFECT, BUT IT HASNOT BEEN MEASURED SPECIFICALLY FOR YOUR KNEE(S). I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THIS BRACE WILL HELP YOUR KNEE OR KNEES CONSIDERABLY!!! BUY WITH CONFIDENCE AND WITHOUT RESERVATION!!!…..(SIDE NOTE: REMEMBER TO ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PT OR YOUR MD IF YOU ARE CURRENTLY BEING TREATED, FOR SAFEY’S SAKE AND SO IT CAN BE ASSESSED ON YOU.) A++

Excellent product at a good price! The fit chart was off, suggest you measure your circumference and go 1 size bigger. I had a lot of swelling around my knee so I went 2 sizes larger. I initially purchased a $40 brace at the drugstore and it was a little better than nothing. For about $60 this brace is far superior, more support, comfort, and adjustability! It's made a huge difference in my mobility and pain level. Highly recommend.

It looks like a well made knee brace but there needs to be a better formula for sizing. The measurement (thigh circumference) is taken 6" above the patella. This doesn't work if the knee is chronically swollen from osteoarthritis. My thigh measured exactly 20" so, in theory, a Large should have worked but I was 0.4 inches from an XL. I purchased the XL and was unable to get it over my knee. I am returning the XL and ordering the XXL to see if I can make it work. Note: I just received the XXL and it now fits okay. I took a walk around the block and I think it's going to work out fine - but beware of the sizing issues. It feels very comfortable and seems to help ease the pain and instability.

It is a solid knee brace. When tightened properly to your knee it provides a substantial amount of torque that attempts to keep your knee straight (like as you bend your knee, the brace is resisting that motion). I tried wearing it for a soccer game and it was tolerable, but frankly a bit too much, so I am using a slightly less intrusive knee brace for soccer. But this one seems like a great option for skiing.I broke my patella 4 years ago and am still trying to figure out how to best resume my former activities of soccer, skiing, snowboarding, etc. This brace is part of the plan to get back to skiing and snowboarding.

The brace seems very stable and wouldWork except it is VERY uncomfortable. I measured my leg several times to make certain. I got it right but when the brace arrived it was way too tight and I could barely get it on. It was really hot that day and when I tried to remove it, it stuck and was horrible getting it off. However, it seemed like it would be great if the size was correct so I ordered the next size up. It was easier to get on but still uncomfortable and I could not keep it on more than two hours. I would like it better if it opened fully and did not pull on so that it could be loosenedA bit when needed. It seems very well made but I just can't wear it and went back to my old one. I tore my meniscus a drive couple of weeks ago but I have to work and I am on my feet a lot. I wanted something more stable and I think this would have been perfect if it was more adjustable. I have no issue with the price or the quality but the fit could be better and they may want to adjust their sizing chart.

Dead serious, this brace became a life changer for my mobility and knee stability after my injury. I'm finally able to take my dog for short walks and I can slowly limp my way around my home without holding onto the walls for dear life. I'm very very happy with this purchase. It's comfortable, you can adjust the straps/support easily, and all around a good brace. One thing to note, this is a brace you have to pull up to your knee and peel it back down. Totally fine for before surgery, but if you can barely touch your knee because it hurts so much, you'll want something else.100% happy with my purchase!

We had a few size issues. They definitely fit small. Had to return a few times and reorder. The vendor send a message and was very helpful. Now, with the right size, it works very well for my wife.
