Review: WELL WORTH THE $30 - My knee measurement around the patella is 15.5 inches, which puts me at the low end of the LARGE size range of 15-17 inches. IT FITS PERFECTLY. I have somewhat boney protruding knees. Other people may have less protruding knees but may have larger calves and quads, which may explain their difficulty in getting their specific size onto their leg. The Velcro is military industrial complex grade quality. It holds like iron. It took some effort to get the straps unhooked in order to get the thing on my leg. I was considering the Neo G but thought otherwise because of its negative Velcro reviews. It is very comfortable. Even when I cranked the straps about as tightly as I could, it still felt nice and firm and stable and supportive and comfortable. It never ever became constrictive nor did I ever feel my leg falling asleep due to blood circulation being cut off. I wore it for about 9 hours while at work, well past the recommended 2 hours. It is compact and fit easily under my trousers. I was expecting it to become irritating to the skin but it never did. The rear panel is of a softer material which allowed greater comfort and less abrasion when bending the knee. When I took it off I expected my leg to be itchy and discolored from wearing a tight brace all day but that did not occur. There was only the slight indentation from the brace's "donut" cushion around the patella. I have other braces that cause much itchyness. Even after 9 hours, it never shifted or moved, neither up or down n or side to side, from the position I put it on at the beginning of the day. The only negative comment I have is, out of the box, it has a smell similar to paint thinner. I am sure this will dissipate over time. But this brace is so well constructed and so heavy duty, it looks like it will last a lifetime. Great stitching and design. I can see how people can get addicted to this because of the total comfort and extreme support. Today I am not wearing it to see if my knee has improved because of my wearing it yesterday. So far my knee feels good without it but I know I will need to wear it again in the near future. I am sure I could wear it every day, all day, with no adverse affects.
Review: Your knees will feel em-braced in support, be careful if you're close to a larger size. - I've been using the brace a few weeks at this point. A little back story, I tore my ACL 7 years ago, and had it replaced less than a year ago. So I just got released back to normal activity a few months ago and am now back doing martial arts 2-3 days a week. I was looking for something to provide a little protection and piece of mind. Overall it seems to do a good job for a neoprene brace. It's a bit longer than some of the other braces I've had in the past, and I like that about this one. The crossing elastic does a good job providing compression in the right areas. The images don't show it well but the 4 crossing straps are velcro-ed under the top and bottom securing strap. This does seem to be a good thing as it can help control how you want the compression just above and below the knee. When wearing this I hardly notice it's there. Sure, it's a little bit of bulk, but it doesn't bulge, the velcro so far seems to be the best I've seen on a brace and hasn't caught or poked once. It stays put through all sorts of activities. Even after a solid workout it still feels sturdy and ready for another round. The one downside I can say might the sizing, I ordered the large, measured my knee and even my calf to make sure it wouldn't get hung up. I ended up with 16 for the whole area I thought the brace would cover. It fits but is definitely providing compression. Is it too much, I can't really say. I can get the brace on ok most days with a quick tug, but getting it off can be difficult. Had my knee been any larger I would definitely need the XL. I'm considering purchasing a second one for the other knee and I may get the XL instead and compare the two before deciding what to do. I'm sort of hoping the neoprene will wear in a little, but so far it's still going strong, and seems very sturdy. Also, this is still a neoprene brace, it probably won't protect you from a hard hit or twist, but hopefully it'll help with the everyday stuff. The side supports don't seem to really add much bulk, but they don't seem to add much support either. I've had others with the flexible supports and they seemed to at least be more noticeable how they added to the knee. Though, it's difficult to tell. As far as a neoprene knee brace this has been the best one I've tried so far (7-8). This kind of brace might be overboard for someone who hasn't had any kind of knee issues, or someone doing lighter sports. Though if you've had issues, or are worried about issues, this might be a good brace for you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great support, really helps relieve pain and discomfort
*by E***G on May 10, 2013*

I've never worn a knee-brace in my entire life. I'm a 30-year old active male who recently tweaked something in my knee. I thought the pain would just go away over time but it didn't. After a few months, I figured I'd try this out as I was training for a marathon. Without the brace, about 5 minutes into my run, I would experience discomfort in my knee. After the brace, I was able to go on long runs (10+ miles) with no pain. It offers great support and stability. I think the sizes run a little small as I got one size larger than I thought I would need and it fits perfectly. When you first wear it and break it in, there are two stiff but flexible "rods" along the sides that offer the support. These kind of dug into my skin a little bit and would cause discomfort but over time, that went away. All-in-all, great product and does the job.
