Review: gave me the support I needed for my knee.
Review: Unfortunately, the knee brace had been previously used and returned. There is a defect in the sewing that causes skin damage when wearing. The picture is after wearing for a 1.5 mile walk. The brace also slips slightly off the patella while walking. Tightening does not correct this issue. I will return this unit and hopefully desertcart doesn't send it out to another customer.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this neoprene-free?**
A: No where in the description does it say neoprene, but it has five percent neoprene and I can tell you that it is right around the hole for the knee cap area because that is where I am broken out with red itchy painful bumps

**Q: Can i order a xxl or a xxxl?  I have larger than most thighs and calves. Xl is too small.**
A: I am not sure abt this .slightly tight feel is not too bad as it stretches slightly and it has Velcro as well to reinforce both top and bottom areas .

**Q: What are the measurements for the donjoy performance bionic drytex hinged knee sleeve?**
A: returned this product because even though I measured following their directions I could not get it on.

**Q: Can this brace be used in water (eg surfing)?**
A: Yes I use mine for surfing to make the brace last adjust slide it on before surfing & slide it off if you keep using the Velcro on & off it will wear out prematurely

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by M***E on 18 May 2024*

Background: Multiple lateral M trims and cleans. 2 weeks post op on latest. Doing great but increased lateral slipping (hopefully transient). Large was WAY too tight and XL has a lot of extra material. I got a "new in used box" for way cheap so I think I'll keep it, but for the fun amount it would be going back. I came in right down the middle of the L in both thigh and knee measurements and right in middle of XL for calf. The L was tight EVERYWHERE. In fact I only managed to get it on once, and only for a couple minutes. (im new to this type of brace and should have realized right away). Returned and got XL at 1/4 the price "like new in broken box". It was indeed brand new. It fits much better but there is extra material everywhere. Patella pocket lifts up when extended and the whole things looks like a diver in a wet suit 3 sizes too big. HOWEVER the hinges stay tight to my knee, lateral slipping has decreased greatly, and it's comfortable. I really feel like they need a size inbtween L and XL. Thanks!
