Dermadry Hamlock Hamstring Knee Brace, Large 22-25, Black Extra compression along the hamstring for

I would not be able to walk for very long without this brace. My hamstrings thank you. Since my injury, I could not stand up straight and sit or ride for more than 15 minutes. This brace has been a blessing as it relieves the excruciating and throbbing pain in my hamstrings. The adjustable straps are very good and I especially like the molded in support that presses against the hamstring while you wear the brace. I fits very snug (I am 6 ft., 225 lbs. and I bought the large size). I like to wrap my thigh with a cloth bandage and then slip the brace over it. This way it stays cooler and more comfortable in a hotter environment.

The only disadvantage is that after it stretches in from a little use, I have trouble keeping it up on my thigh if I am a little more active. I use athletic tape and wrap once around the bottom to keep it on. In all fairness of course, the shape of the leg makes it hard for any bandage to remain in place for long. This brace is better than most is this area.
