I have struggles with the tendons in my knees for a long time, often if I twist my leg or bend it too quickly my knee will dislocate and need to be relocated. This cause quite a bit of pain, soreness, and afterwards my knees will continue to dislocate until the tendons strengthen again. I have tried many a version of knee brace ranging from sock style, whole leg metal, or just wrapping tightly with bandage. This brace has been a lifesaver! It is stable, lightweight, gives a good range of motion while still protecting and not having too much “give”. The straps make it so I can easily adjust and target the weaker areas on my knees, and makes it feel even safer.
