Sizing of the Sports Hinged Knee Brace

Due to the location of the twin straps on the brace, to find the perfect size we recommend measuring the circumference of your thigh as demonstrated in the image below. Once you have this measurement, please consult the sizing chart beneath to find the perfect Sports Knee Brace for you.

How to measure your thigh for a perfect fit

Small 39 - 47cm
Medium 47 - 53cm

XX-Large 67 - 75cm

How to Correctly Fit Your Donjoy Sports Knee Brace

In order to correctly fit your Knee Brace, simply place your foot through the brace hole and adjust until comfortable. To correctly position your brace, ensure the patella ring hole is located at the head of the knee cap, facing outwards.

How Tight Is a Donjoy Sports Knee Brace?

If you correctly follow our sizing instructions, your Donjoy Sports Knee Brace should provide tight, sturdy and stable support during exercise. The brace provides compression and stability, ensuring that the fabric and patella ring remain in place no matter what your sporting application.

Who Can Use a Donjoy Sports Knee Brace?

The Sports Hinged Knee Brace is designed to provide mild medial and lateral support to the knee. This helps prevent injuries while also holding the knee in a neutral position to facilitate healing if you've previously suffered from an injury in the area.

Can I Wear This Brace Following Surgery?

This brace is designed for injury prevention, or for restarting physical activity once your recovery is fully complete. For use in the latter stages of recovery following surgery, we would recommend a much more robust support such as the Donjoy Armor Knee Brace with Fourcepoint.

Can I Play Sport With a Donjoy Knee Brace On?

This version of the Donjoy Knee Brace is designed for use during sport. No matter what you're up, know that the intricate design specifications of the Donjoy Sports Knee Brace are designed to withstand intense pressure and wear and tear.

  • Athletics
  • Badminton
  • Basketball
  • Cricket
  • Football
  • Golf
  • Jogging
  • Running
  • Sprinting
  • Tennis

Wraparound Design

Supplied as a wraparound support, the Hinged Knee Brace Wraparound is incredibly easy to put on and take off. Even when you suffer from painful knees, the support can be placed on the area without exacerbating your discomfort dramatically. This makes it a cut above most slip-on knee braces.

Incredible Twin Strap Stability

Donjoy are committed to providing strong and stable braces that do not ride up, slip down, or chafe against the skin. In order to promote rehabilitation, the twin straps located above and below the knee ensure the Donjoy Sports Brace provides accurate and targeted compression when jogging, running and sprinting.

Innovative DryTex Fabric Construction

Being allergic to neoprene can limit the number of knee supports that are suitable for you. The Donjoy Sports Hinged Knee Brace Wraparound is constructed from Drytex, offering you an excellent alternative to neoprene braces. This material is lightweight and breathable, making it ideal if you live in warm climates.

Effective knee brace
Rating:
29 September 2022  | 

The brace is good at preventing sideways movement of the knee. It is comfortable to wear and does not make the joint too hot.
Two minor issues, both of which can be overcome.
I ordered a small brace based on recommended measurements; in fact, a medium would have been more comfortable.
When the brace arrived, the hinges had been inserted back to front, meaning that the knee could only move forwards! This was quickly remedied by changing the hinges round.

The support stops my kneecap from moving so that’s good BUT the open patella feels too small. And I don’t like one of the straps edging over the open patella space. So, I’ll wear it when I’m trying to swim again and when I’m out and about - travelling but take it off at home as it’s not right.

The knee support is very padded but just doesn’t stay put. You only have to be walking down the street and it would have worked itself loose and falls down. My knee was measured by the doctors so do have the correct size but def not worth wasting money in an expensive support as it does the same as a cheap one. I’m waiting for surgery and I’m better keeping it off than wearing as I have to keep pulling it up and adjusting

I am a 73 yr old male who has a problem with the right knee which had become quite unstable and painful. I walk dogs for between 3 and 4 hrs per day with the main walk being, usually, of around 2 hrs duration. I selected this support to replace the one (wrap around but a different brand) that I have been using, successfully, for the past two years. I had two problems with the previous support in that, although reportedly neoprene free it still produced a painful rash if in direct contact with the skin and it had stretched to the point where it was difficult to secure the Velcro fastenings.

On receipt I was impressed with the quality of the Donjoy support and of the finish. When first I put it on I thought that it the hinges were very stiff and did not permit easy articulation of the knee, but I solved that problem by removing the hinges and putting them in the correct way. I find that actually fitting the support with the amount of hook and loop stuff attaching itself to all sorts during the process, a bit of a faff.

I chose the small size after measuring my thigh as detailed in the item listing and it fits fine around my thigh but it is too small to fit comfortably around my calf. In use I actually find that it is too long and causes irritation around at the top of the support and the tightness around the calf gave me cramp.

I have persisted with the support in the hope that it would become more comfortable, but it hasn't. Additionally, whereas my previous support gave me relief from the symptoms with my knee, wearing this Donjoy support has seen the pain and instability return.

So, although the support is well made and does not produce the rash of my earlier one I don't think that I will be able to continue using it, mainly because of the length (I am quite short at 5'9") and its seeming unsuitability to my problem.
