Knee Support & Braces

Knee Support

Knees take a beating no matter what stage of life you're in, sports injuries in your twenties, arthritis later on, or just general wear from years of movement. Our knee range covers it all: knee caps for daily compression, braces for firmer support, and patella straps for the specific tendon pain runners and hikers know all too well.

Knee Cap: Compression Sleeves for Everyday Knee Pain

If you feel discomfort in the knee while carrying out everyday activities, running, or playing sports, then a knee cap would be the easiest starting point to address the problem. It fits like a sock and provides constant compression on the joint, yet does not limit movement. The majority use it during activities and remove it afterwards, although there are others who prefer using it throughout the day.

A. Knee Cap for Knee Pain: Bamboo and Neoprene Options

If you want to be comfortable at all times and even during hot days, you will appreciate the bamboo material as it is breathable. The neoprene is slightly harder and will provide good compression even when your activities intensify, so choosing this one makes sense.

Knee Brace: Adjustable Wrap Support for Sports and Arthritis

The knee brace is a further development of the knee cap, which surrounds the joint with straps that can be adjusted to provide more support and stability. This device can be used both for sports injuries, when the knee requires more stability, and for arthritis of the knee joint.

A. Knee Support for Pain: Choosing Between Wrap and Sleeve

You have more control with a wrap-around brace because you can regulate how tight it is based on your varying levels of discomfort throughout the day. Sleeves are much easier to put on and are effective when your requirements do not change too much.

Knee Compression Sleeve: Bamboo Yarn for Running and Gym

Both runners and those who use the gym on a daily basis always look for something so light that they can wear it without even thinking about it during their workout sessions. Such are bamboo fiber sweatbands.

A. Patella Strap: Targeted Tendon Support for Runners and Hikers

Tendinopathy (jumper’s knee) and tendonitis in general can be addressed effectively using a patella strap, which uses targeted compression below the kneecap instead of compressing the entire knee. It is an example of a small yet significant product that helps greatly with tendon injuries resulting from jogging or hiking.

FAQs

Q1: What is a knee cap used for?

A knee cap provides consistent compression around the knee joint for pain relief during daily activity, running and sports. We offer bamboo yarn, neoprene and standard compression knee caps in sizes S to 4XL.

Q2: What is the difference between a knee brace and a knee cap?

A knee cap is a pull-on sleeve that provides general compression, while a knee brace typically wraps around the joint with adjustable straps for firmer, more targeted support. Our adjustable wrap braces offer air mesh fabric for breathability.

Q3: What is a patella strap, and when should I use one?

A patella strap is a narrow band worn below the kneecap to reduce strain on the patellar tendon, commonly used by runners, hikers and athletes with jumper's knee or tendonitis.
