If you are looking for a knee brace that provides the best possible combination of support and movement then this one from Ezyfit is one you should certainly consider.
It not only provides stability for your knee, but comfort should also be assured, thanks to the choice of three sizes.
Ezyfit Adjustable Neoprene Wrap Knee Brace Harness
Ezyfit sounds like the sort of brand name that you’d expect to be one of the biggest in this product category, but the truth is they are actually one of the smallest, but that belies the success they have had with the few products they have created.
Apart from this knee brace, they have also released a waist trimmer belt, that has proved to be one of the most popular, especially when you consider how well it is rated by customers.
You’ll be pleased to know that also applies to this knee brace, where it is not only a top-selling product but one which gets vastly more positive reviews than negative ones.
Its main function is obviously as a knee brace to support the joint, and its popularity is enhanced by how comfortable it is, and also the fact that it comes in three sizes, so it should be suitable for most users, regardless of how large their legs are.
Who is This Product For?
While there are some obvious users, such as those with a knee injury, or perhaps with arthritis, who all need extra support, there are many others who will benefit from this product.
Those who play sports and might not actually have any serious issues with their knee, can help avoid any potential injury occurring by wearing this to provide extra support for their knee while they play. The list includes joggers, serious runners, and athletes.
Those in professions which require them to be on their feet for long periods of time, such as retail or construction workers may also welcome the support provided by this knee brace.
With the sizes this brace can accommodate going from 9 inches, all the way up to 24 inches, it is suitable for a large range of leg sizes.
What’s Included?
When it arrives, the package should include just one item, and that is the knee brace.
Overview of Features
The main reason for wearing a knee brace is for support of the joint, so the fact this has stabilizers on each side indicates that support is there for you.
The brace is extremely easy to use and wrapping three straps around your leg and then securing them with Velcro fasteners, are the only actions you need to take in order to wear it. The straps are fully adjustable and adjusting them is easy.
To make the brace as comfortable as possible the edges are curved, and the neoprene material allows for ease of movement. Silicone gel on the interior section which is in contact with your leg is there to prevent the brace from slipping.
The brace can be worn on either leg, it is suitable for male and female users, and it comes with a choice of three sizes.
How to Use It
As the knee brace is a single piece there is nothing to put together, however, to benefit from it properly you need to wear it correctly.
First, place the knee brace against the front of your leg so that the hole is aligned with your knee cap.
You will see that there are three separate closures which you should wrap around your leg and secure in this order: bottom, middle, top. Each of them is adjustable, so if one or more doesn’t feel right, such as being too tight, or too loose, then adjust and refasten them accordingly.
Once you have the knee brace feeling exactly right you can carry on with whatever activity you were planning, and the knee brace should stay in place.
One note on choosing a size and that is if you are unsure, or have to choose between two different sizes, the advice is to go for the smaller of the two.
Pros
- Dual stabilizers on each side
- Fully adjustable Velcro closures
- Silicone gel inner to prevent slippage
- Double-stitched to prevent irritation
- Choice of three sizes
Cons
- Stitching could be stronger
- Kneecap hole is too small
Alternative
Not everyone is a fan of adjustable Velcro fasteners, so if that includes you, and you prefer supports that are one-piece, then the Riptgear Compression Knee Sleeve should appeal to you.
It works simply by pulling up your leg and into position around your knee joint in order to support it. The silicone weaves within the sock prevent slippage, and it comes in a choice of five different sizes.
Conclusion
There is nothing complicated about the Ezyfit Knee brace, and as we often say, the simplest products are often the best, so this one certainly fits with that mantra. It offers excellent support, is comfortable, and is suitable for many leg sizes, thanks to the three size options.
