IT Band Strap - Thigh Compression Wrap, Iliotibial Band Syndrome Brace, Thigh Compression Sleeve for Men & Women, Hamstring Brace, Support & Stabilize Knee, Comfort Bracing

I suffer from an IT band issue in my left leg caused by bowling. I haven't been on a regular bowling league in over 14 years and I've been wanting to join one again. My sister offered for me to join here league and so I have been practicing by bowling at least 3 games a week. Before getting this strap, I would bowl about half a game to a full game before I was in excruciating pain. I had issues with this when I was younger, but being older and having additional weight it made my games terrible. Previously I had a 180+ average, but before getting this band I could barely maintain a 120 average in any of my bowling sessions. I used this band last weekend and it has blown my mind. I don't understand how a 2-inch wide piece of cloth can alleviate so much pain, but I bowled 4 games averaging 160 (and considering I have been out of the game for 14 years, I didn't think that was too bad). I felt better after bowling 4 games than I have bowling two games and taking 3 Ibuprofen prior to bowling. If you suffer from IT band issues or related injuries I highly recommend this strap. Also, as some of the other reviews point out, it does tend to slide off location from time to time, so be sure to tighten it as much as comfortably possible and check in on it from time to time.

Easy to put on. Does not slip down. Thought I would need an XL. but the L is plenty big.

I had a broken hip. After 3 months I had an IT band issue. I bought this, and my physical therapist said it was perfect for me. I had it below the knee, he showed me that it goes above the knee. So, I bought another one. Reasonably priced.

I followed the instructions on how to measure for the IT BAND STRAP. The strap was very uncomfortable and I was getting scratched by the velcro. The band felt to large and too narrow. I am angry I wasn’t able to return the straps. I only used them for a few hours and couldn’t stand the scratchy feeling. When I got home I had another trip to go on & put them in my closet then forgot about them. Such a waste of hard earned money.

Works well with pain, unfortunately, tends to move down the knee and not stay in place.

I have itbands and this brace was not really helpful every time I would wear it, it was too tight on the knee and it didn’t really help with the pain so I do not recommend this

Disappointed, kept slipping of, needed to keep pull up to stay

Works well as helped with pain from IT band issues, wore above and below knee (below seemed to help more). starting to wear out after repeated use but for the cost was well worth it, the gel pad does not stay open place, needs a pocket to hold in place.
