Shock Doctor 875 Ultra Knee Brace with Bilateral Hinges

Very useful, comfortable and adjustable brace for my Osteoarthritis Knee joint. Checks limited hyperextension. Helps to stay away from surgery.

装着感は良いのですが、汗をかいた後に外す・・・かなりきついです。幅があるので、長ズボンの下では無理、ハーフパンツでの着用がイイですね

I teach dance fitness classes and my knee went (old injury came back) I tried the normal elastic style knee supports, I even tried a small with an extra medium one on top but my knee still felt like it wasnt held in place. I looked through and read so many reviews and came across the shock doctor ultra. I have worn it to teach now for a couple of weeks and it is AMAZING!! because of the hinges down each side of my knee there is no way it can rotate or move where I dont want it to, it is held still and in place. I dont wear it all day as I need my knee, muscles, ligaments to work and recover but for the classes it is brilliant. I wanted to do a review in case there is any instructors out there looking for something. It is more expensive but so worth it I promise you. You cant extend your leg fully and it takes some patience to get the thing off but honestly, dont hesitate.

Buen soporte

I bought a pair of the 875s thinking the metal hinges would provide better support for my knees during exercise. It didn't quite turn out that way. From its first use, I encountered 2 problems which caused me more pain; 1) Despite the padding around the metal hinges, the pressure of the hinged joint on my inner left knee made using it uncomfortable. If this is the injured part of your knee like mine is, you will not enjoy the added pressure on it. 2) The stitching directly behind the outer pull tab (where the 875 label is) is abrasive. So much so that after an hour's brisk walk, I had a 1cm cut on my right thigh. I needed a bandaid over the cut the 2nd time I used the braces. This time, my left thigh suffered a similar cut. I subsequently used the 875s without the metal hinges. The first problem was immediately resolved. And since I was able to apply a tighter (and more comfortable) wrap around my thighs without the hinges, the stitching no longer had the same abrasive effect against my skin. I've since been using the 875s without the hinges. Pity about the unused metal hinges. I could have saved some money and purchased braces without them. Now I know...

Use this for football after an ACL reconstruction and arthroscopy, and it feels very good. It takes some time to adjust, but overall it helps me keep my stability and security while playing. After a while, you don’t feel the brace anymore, and it feels like it is not there at all. Pay attention to the sizing though, since it should fit like a glove.
