Good support, good price.

Support for Patella and more
| See our article on Osgood Schlatter Disease by a Sports Med Surgeon. |
Overall, the Futuro Sport Moisture Control Knee Brace is designed to provide support for the Patellar (knee tracking). It also alleviates pain and symptoms associated with tendinitis, chondromalacia (runner's knee or jumper's knee) and Osgood-Schlatter disease.
The open circle at the knee provides additional patella support and pain relief. The patella is that spot right below the knee cap. Technically for you medical junkies out there it offers support for knee tracking. Runner's Knee is a condition characterized by pain behind or around the kneecap.

You can wear it to the mall or while jogging
It works for active sports and for doing every day errands depending on your diagnosis. For example, if you are a teenager, rest and ice is the best for Osgood-Schlatter so you give it time to heel. Most people love the flexibility of this support brace.
More Breathable than Neoprene
The Polartec material is a more breathable than the neoprene knee supports. It offers the muscle warmth, without causing severe sweating. It wicks moisture away from the skin and is treated with a very fancy and super scientific antimicrobial treatment to prevent odor-causing micro-organisms. Basically, so it does not stink after one use and you do not have rivulets of sweat gushing down your leg which is uncomfortable and makes for some soggy socks.
How it goes on
You un-velcro the straps and slip it on your knee like a knee sock. Then you secure the top then bottom strap to customize the fit just enough to provide support but not so much that it acts as a tourniquet. But I will have to assume you know when you have tightened it up too much.
Keep in mind
Hand wash and do not machine wash. This is a neoprene blend and some might be sensitive to neoprene, so discontinue use if a rash develops. And if your pain worsens, you need more than a brace you need a doctor. Make sure you are referred to a sports medicine knee specialist or surgeon.
