ComfiLifeKnee Brace for Knee Pain Relief – Neoprene Knee Brace for Working Out, Running, Injury Recovery – Side Stabilizers – 3 Point Adjustable Compression – Open Patella Support, Non-Slip (Large)

This is the first knee brace I've found that stays in place and doesn't slide down my leg. It offers great support and is very comfortable. I have ordered several of these...that's how satisfied I am with this brace. I don't want to be without it!

I got this brace to try out because I am planning a very rocky/climby overnighter to hike next weekend. I have bad knees and can barely get up my own steps to my home some days. Plus I'm overweight. More and more my knees seem to fail when I really need them to agree with what my heart and mind want to do. To prepare for this upcoming hike, I have been doing other strenuous climbing hikes (not what a person with knee pain should do, but I'm not ready to throw in the hiking towel) to condition myself and this last hike was so painful I thought I might need to cancel my plan for next week. I had one more hike to do (today) to prep myself for going over Blood Mountain on the AT...I ordered this brace...it said it was coming the day after my last prep hike, but it came today (prep-hike day) and so I threw the package in my car and raced to the mountain to meet my friends. I didn't even have time to look at the thing, I just jumped out of my car and put the brace on...having no idea if there were tricks to it...it turns out it was very simple to figure out. Anyhooooo the hike consisted of nothing but steps and rocks and stairs and massive upward...then massive downward, where my pain normally happens. I still had to be gentle..i wasn't leaping like a gazelle or anything, but the honest truth is, I felt a smidge of the pain I normally felt. This was a very strenuous hike for me but my knees did just fine. No slippage. The best part was at the end when I saw a puppy, I squatted down to pet her and realized I had fully squatted with zero knee pain. Like I was 30 again (right before it started hurting). Normally after a hike or even if i hadn't hiked at all, I can't squat without wincing. My knees are normally tree trunks after a hike. I have some arthritis and joint pain...basic Army damage, lol.My final thought is that this brace has given me some much-needed confidence about next week's hike over Blood Mountain....and any other hikes after that. Very happy with my purchase. It was nice not to worry about how much farther I had to go, and what will it feel like trying to get back. I could enjoy the day and the company I was with.UPDATE ON HIKING BLOOD MOUNTAIN WITH KNEE BRACE: We did BM heading SOBO from Neel Gap so the hike upward was pretty strenuous. Didn't have any knee pain, since it normally hurts on the way down. Heading down was really great!!! I had very little pain, if any. I go slow and had to sit on my butt to get down some of the rocks, but none of my issues had to do with my knees. I feel like I got my confidence back.

Bought 1 first, tried it out. Then bought another one. Easy to adjust,comfortably,work right or left side..

is well made, but is very stiff - thus, does not wrap well around the knee - actually, almost too stiff with very little flexibility

First, it was true to size. It fit perfectly. Was well made and felt good on my knee. I could feel the support right away. I would recommend this product.

I’ve purchased several knee braces from Academy Sports and they are so expensive, never really gave me the support I needed to workout. I’m in CrossFit my knees were hurting too much. I used this brace today for my 400m runs and I felt the pressure off my knees. I recommend to anyone having knee pains. It’s super comfortable. I have thick legs and the size Large fits perfect.

Bought this for hubby and he loves the support. Great and affordable product

The brace tends to slip down, proving that it will not be appropriate for the support we need for our injury.
