Mueller Elastic Knee Support

This is the 3rd knee support I've actually run with. Everything else either pinched when flexing the knee or aggravated my knee joint. My ortho/sports medicine doctor gave me a well made neoprene & velcro brace with hinged aluminum bars built into the sides and a patella pad (adjustable) at the hole in the front for kneecap support. I took it back after 3 days. I tried on several other neoprene supports, some with Velcro and some just tapered sleeve type (even 2 other Mueller NEOPRENE styles [open patella & closed] in several sizes). Just wearing those around the store I felt pinching or slipping down. I tried a gray ELASTIC support from Walmart (1 size fits none?) that was super-tight.

COMFORT: I've worn this Mueller elastic knee support up to 9 mile runs. It stays in place well while running. There's no pinching or chafing. It was easy to forget that I was wearing it, but I felt confident that my loose patella was being supported in its natural position. It gives light support to the knee if sized right.

BUILD: This support is a closed band with no straps of any kind, that must be pulled on over the foot. It is tapered, smaller at the bottom end than at top, so it fits me well. I think the weakest area of construction of this product would be the threads wrapping the top and bottom edges. But I believe it will be long-lasting under normal use.

SIZE: My knee measured 13.5" at the kneecap. But I bought the Medium size which the package say is for 14" to 16". So I agree with the other review that these run SLIGHTLY small. Great product for me.

I wear a small support, which is hard to impossible to find in Tucson. I have several of these Mueller supports. They last longer that any other brand I have tried. The Ace supports at Walgreen's sell wear out very fast. They are a "best buy" as far as I am concerned. I sometimes can find these at a sporting goods store, but if I order $25.00 at Amazon, the price of this support works out to around $2.00 to $4.00 cheaper.

If you measure your knee, and order this support, the support will be the correct size, not smaller, or larger like other brands.

Update April 3, 2012: This support is still holding up and not out of shape. They have a long-life compared to other elastic knee supports.

Great fix for my hamstring and knee problem. The medium was too small and had to order a large. It was so inexpensive I didn't even return it just ordered a large. So order one size larger than you think you need!

Great, great brace but beware they run small. I weigh #150 and am using the XL. They do not run true to size and one XL or S can be wider or smaller, etc., from the other within the same size.
