Functional Hinged Knee Brace

A supportive hinged Neoprene knee brace that provides support for ligament strains, sprains, and other knee injuries. This knee brace has fully adjustable wrap bands so you can place the support where you need it most. It also includes polycentric hinges that allow your knee to move freely, but the built-in stop prevents hyperextension - backwards bending of the knee joint.

Product detail
The Neoprene hinged knee brace is made from lightweight sports Neoprene - an advanced synthetic rubber compound that provides excellent support for joints and muscles. The hinged knee brace has four adjustable straps and is Velcro compatible. This design provides four-way stretch and is available in black only and in four sizes.

For correct sizing, measure four inches above the centre of the knee for thigh measurement and four inches below the knee for calf measurement. If measurements vary, use thigh measurement.

The hinged knee brace also has the following features:

  • lightweight, composite polycentric hinges with durable lightweight hinge straps
  • contoured condyle shells
  • tapered sleeve design
  • an open design at the back (popliteal) and a rubber support donut with an open patella (knee cap) design at the front
  • a double layer of Neoprene around the entire kneecap
  • a low profile, slip on style

    Health benefits
    The lightweight sports Neoprene hinged knee brace provides support and therapeutic warmth for an injured or swollen knee. The material is Velcro compatible, allowing the support straps to be placed to suit your support needs. The rubber support gives your knee extra patella (knee cap) stability, and the open patella design makes the wrap comfortable when walking and sitting. The open popliteal design prevents bunching of the material and minimises any irritation at the back of your knee.

    The polycentric hinges and lightweight hinge straps make the knee brace strong and durable, allowing for a full range of natural motion. The built in hinge-stop prevents hyperextension, which could cause further damage. The contoured condyle shells give an excellent fit and make the knee brace more comfortable to wear. They also protect your knee joint from sideways impacts during activity.

    The slip-on style makes the knee brace easy to put on and the tapered sleeve design follows the natural contours of your knee for maximum comfort. This shape also prevents slipping, and unwanted migration of the knee brace during wear. The double layer of Neoprene around the kneecap holds your patella securely in place and provides maximum stability.

    Neoprene orthopaedic sports supports are designed to help prevent recurring injuries and assist healing new and existing ones. These sport supports help your body renew its soft tissue after common sprains or injuries.

    Neoprene sports supports:

    • are designed to prevent and rehabilitate soft tissue injuries
    • provide a unique variable compression support system that provides comfort and heat retention to the affected areas before, during and after regular exercise
    • are made from light weight and slim line neoprene - the supports are therefore comfortable to wear under everyday clothes for constant, long-term treatment of sports-related injuries
