MUELLER Sports Hinged Wrap Around Knee Brace for Adults, Men and Womens Size, Knee Suport for Pain, Injury, or Arthritis, Black, Large

the brace works well, but is pretty bulky. Just barely fits under my jeans, and I don't know if it will be big enough to go over them. Does support my knee.

The brace is great, and really does what it's supposed to do but I have one complaint. The brace is as wide on the top as it is on the bottom. Most people's thighs are wider than their calves (as are mine) so it's quite tight on the thighs.It's not terrible though, and the brace is of very high quality.UPDATE** 4/11/2011I was a little overweight when I wrote this review it seems. I have to wear it to keep my knee in place while exercising and while working, and it fits perfectly now. The metal hinges allow movement but keep pressure on your knee to ensure everything flows smoothly. I lost about 20 pounds since I wrote the review, so as you can imagine, I have less thigh fat to prevent this product from fitting me correctly.I changed my star rating from 4* to 5*.

great but need reajust some times for the velcro

No cartilage in my knees. Been wearing these for 10 years. They helped me avoid knee replacement surgery so far. Easy to put on and take off.

This is a well-made brace that is perfect for anyone who has had back trouble and doesn't want to have to reach way down to pull on the Mueller's (even better) $40 slip-on brace over their foot. I've had back trouble and I do better with a wraparound knee brace. I've also had some trouble with the simple elastic braces that press down on the kneecap, causing wear and tear on the articular cartilege layer on the back of it. Once I realized those were bad news, I got a (way overpriced) wraparound brace made by Procare. I liked the way it wrapped around from the back of the leg, leaving the kneecap completely uncovered. This Mueller one is designed to wraparound the knee from the front of the leg. I was worried that it might put a little too much pressure on my kneecap so I pulled out the easily removed aluminum hinges and popped them back in BACKWARDS. This allowed me to apply the brace from the back of the leg (as in the Procare) and leave the kneecap uncovered. The material that normally would be in front of the knee now bunches up a little in back of the knee so I may take scissors and carefully cut out the padded circle. It's not really a problem except when I bend the knee at a right angle or more. Excellent product though not quite as light or as effective as the $40 one that slips on.

We measured and measured and measured ... Then went on the high end of the recommended fit.Too small. Size chart is just plain wrong.Other than that, it seems to be a quality product.

The wraparound knee brace is perfect-I ordered a 2nd one for my other knee. My Dr. approved both. It is very sturdy & comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone with knee problems. It securely keeps the bones in place

generally speaking, this brace appears to be sturdy, and well constructed. it has two major velcro closure areas, with additional cross strapping to furthur secure it. so, why one star? it just plain doesn't fit. i went to the manufacturers website and used THEIR instructions for measuring for a proper fit. no go. common sense would suggest that, unless you're a human stick figure, the thigh area above the knee is larger than the calf area below the knee. apparently no one thought to allow for this anatomical reality. too bad, i would have liked to have kept it. but, it is useless if it doesn't fit properly. had to send it back. amazon helped me with this and made it easy. thank you, amazon.
