I was looking for a non neoprene knee strap, as the neoprene irritates my skin. This is a great strap with a large velcro area for a solid fit that does not come loose.

I found this product was good to begin with but as soon as I wore it a few times it became really loose & wouldn't hold in the correct position. I find myself having to adjust it every 15mins to ensure it stays tight. My previous straps have all held shape for a lot longer.

The item was exactly as described. The price was better than I could have gotten at a store and I did not even have to leave my house. The product arrived even sooner than I expected.

I've spent over a thousand dollars for my weird medical condition: achilles tendonities, plantar faciitis, shin splits and now patella tendonitis! My calf size is 33.5 cm and I picked the smalled size that works up to 32 cm and it fitted PERFECTLY. neither too tight nor too loose. Slowly i find that shin issues are reducing and healing as well as the over all pressure on my tendonities/facia.

Helps me do things that had become uncomforable or painful, especially requiring flexing my left knee. I wear it all the time when exercising now and it even has helped when I don't wear it. It does stretch over time especially when it gets wet but then stabilizes. Just don't get one that is near the end of the adjustment when new.

The strap didn't provide enough adjustable compression. I ended up going with a Nike that gave much stronger velcro for adjustability.
