Features:
- BEFORE CHOOSING YOUR SIZE, use a soft, flexible tape measure to find the circumference around your leg at Point A (6" above mid-kneecap) and Point B (6" below mid-kneecap). Size 2XL fits 16" - 18" at Point A and 14" - 15" at Point B. (Refer to the 2nd image for more detailed instructions.)
- FRONT-CLOSURE DESIGN is ideal for independent patients. Great for recovery from damaged or weak ligaments, tendons, joints and muscles, arthritis, osteoarthritis, torn meniscus, hyperextension, ACL, MCL or LCL ligament injuries, sprains and strains, instability, patellar tracking disorder, tendonitis and after surgery.
- DUAL AXIS POLYCENTRIC HINGES provide enhanced stability to the medial (inner) and lateral (outer) sides of your knee, which is especially useful for those that suffer from carrying around extra weight.
- LIGHTWEIGHT, OPEN-PATELLA DESIGN reduces pressure on your sore kneecap, making this plus size brace more breathable and flexible than a solid knee sleeve. A circular cutout behind your knee (popliteal) helps prevent the brace from bunching when walking or bending.
- ADJUSTABLE COMPRESSION wrap is made 1/8" thick, premium-grade neoprene, which promotes heat retention and flexibility, allowing for full range of motion. Perfect for exercise, sitting, standing, working and running or sports such as volleyball, soccer, basketball, etc.
