What Our Customers Say
I will start by saying that I was a skeptic, I
I will start by saying that I was a skeptic, I own quite a few knee braces and never really got the movement and confidence with other braces like I got with these, would recommend hundred percent worth the money. just do it and don’t look back. A skateboarder in my late 50’s
I am so impressed
I am so impressed. Went thru several knee braces and the pain never left. I was loosing hope and patience that I would be able to get enough help with the pain to even walk at the room. Once my brace came the pain seemed to settle down and than desolve. I walked carefully the first day and by day...
Worth every pennny
I’m a skier with a hypermobility disorder and I noticed a huge difference wearing these on my last trip - I actually felt them prevent my knees from moving in the wrong way a couple times. Also, as a thick thigh gal, I love that these come in truly inclusive sizing!
Not a new customer
I love these knee braces after a couple years of daily use I wore them out and I am replacing them with the exact same ones I purchased the first time I bought from you guys and I would recommend them to my friends & family who are looking for something similar.🤙

I’m a skateboarder and I recently messed up my acl soon as I put the old bones therapy competition sleeve with hinges on I immediately could fell the difference I now have full mobility back thanks guys for helping me get back to doing what i love .
Excellent quality and fast shipping
Excellent quality and fitment. I had both knees injured initially over 30 years ago. Add additional age, injuries and wear and my knees have become an absolute wreck. These compression sleeves are super helpful. I have a lot of issues with my knees giving out on me at work. I'm on my feet all day...
Common Questions
Can I remove the hinges?
Yes. The lateral hinges are removable, so you can switch between full hinged support and compression-only mode. Many customers remove hinges for lighter activities like walking and keep them in for sports.
Is this right for ACL injuries?
Our Hinged Knee Brace provides the maximum lateral stability in our lineup. Many customers with ACL, MCL, and meniscus injuries use it for support during recovery and return to activity. Always consult your doctor for injury-specific guidance.
How is this different from the Springed Brace?
The Hinged Brace uses rigid lateral hinges for maximum stability — ideal for ligament injuries and post-surgery recovery. The Springed Brace uses flexible springs for enhanced support during activity. Choose hinged for stability, springed for active support.
Is it bulky?
Despite the hinged support, our brace maintains a relatively slim profile thanks to the knitted construction. It fits under looser pants and most athletic wear. It's noticeably slimmer than hard-shell pharmacy braces.
