Bodyprox Hinged Knee Brace for Men and Women, Knee Support for Swollen ACL, Tendon, Ligament and Meniscus Injuries

I like that it opens up all the way and you don’t have to slide it over your knee. Has good support, it fits well but if you put it on top of your jeans it will slide down.

Over a two year period I have purchased six different braces in an effort to get relief for my wife who has a patella injury. Two of the purchases were from "professionals". I have purchased the remainder online through Amazon, based on features and reviews. All of the braces had two major problems. First problem is that they all slipped down!!!. The second problem is that they all were uncomfortable. In many braces, the strapping wrinkled and narrowed, increasing the discomfort. Some had narrow straps that only added to discomfort instead of support. In addition, about half of them were very difficult to put on. I'm an engineer and can deal with the problems, but it's very difficult to accept that thes devices were put on the market. Pity the person that has to put it on without help! Today, the BodyProx Hinged Knee Brace arrived. Inside the shipping envelope was a sturdy plastic bag with a slide zipper. That gave me a good feeling because I felt that this company wasn't just slinging out product, but made me feel that they take pride in it. Then, there is a "Thank You" card from"Lisa", offering to resolve any issues that I might have. Been there before, but it was done so tastefully that I really believe that BodyProx is serious about it. Next, there is an "Instruction Manual". Well, it's just one piece of paper, about 8" x 5", printed on both sides with color photos of the proper way to put it on. I thought it was well done and provided some helpful information. And then I looked at the brace. The main tabs on the body of the brace are substantial, and the brace material appears to be ventilated for comfort. There are rows of "wavy"material along the top and bottom edges meant to keep the brace in place. Four straps (two for the top and two for the bottom) snug up the brace, the straps are wide and easy to attach to the D-ring. Putting the brace on my wife's knee was simple. Unlike so many other braces, getting the right placement and tension was fastsimple and intuitive. The best moment was hearing my wife say "It feels fine."!!! I understand that this is an early on review. However, having fought braces and their failings, having tried modifications to improve slipping and comfort, I can only say that this is a very well thought out and well made brace that sports a reasonable price.

Took this brace to PT; my therapist said this will give me good support while my ligaments heal. Had him show me how to fasten all the straps because they are a little tricky since I can’t see when I reach behind me.

I originally ordered a size that included my knee measurements as instructed on the seller's page how to measure. It was on the upper end of the range. Once I tried the brace on, however, it was quite snug and uncomfortable. I returned it, hassle free, and reordered the same brace but in the next size larger. It fits great! Comfortable and not too snug. The Velcro straps are very grippy and secure. It has not been a sliding-down problem nor bunching up under the knee due to the open back. My knee feels secure, stable and protected while walking with a Rollator and reduces pain due to bone-on-bone osteoarthritis. Another brand I had gotten elsewhere had metal hinges that started squeaking annoyingly after about 2 months of use. There is an opening that appears to be able to reach the hinge area to oil if it starts to squeak...but hopefully that will never happen with this brand. This style (not necessarily the brand) of knee brace was recommended by my physical therapist. I will be telling him about it at my next session so he can tell other patients who need something similar.

No instructions on how to put on.. Had to find something on you-tube.. Also hard to put on by yourself.. Best to have a third-hand.. But works ok once it's on..

This knee brace is very helpful for my wobbly knee. I’m not ready for a knee replacement yet, so this brace helps keep my knee steady. It is easy to put on and is much more affordable than the one offered to me at urgent care. It stays in place well without slipping. The only downside is it can be rather warm during hot weather.

Great knee brace that holds up to regular use while boxing . Very comfortable .

This brace was recommended by ChatGPT after I twisted my knee. The Amazon price was better than ordering from the manufacturer, plus I received same-day delivery with Prime. The brace works amazingly well- my knee feels very stable while walking and standing. It will be a good assist while my knee is healing. It's easy to put on and take off. This is one of my best purchases!
