Product Details

Donjoy Fortilax Elastic Arthritis Knee Support

When you're looking to purchase a knee support, it's important that you find one that provides a high level of compression to the area as this helps reduce swelling and oedema. The Donjoy Fortilax Elastic Arthritis Knee Support is an excellent brace that is designed specifically for arthritic knees during sporting activity and everyday use. As a result of its design, it offers a high level of support and compression to the area, making it ideal for a wide range of conditions.

Features and Benefits of the Fortilax Elastic Support

  • Made with non-compressive knitted fabric on the patella to prevent local oedema
  • Fits either the left or right knee for improved versatility
  • Made from breathable biocompatible yarn
  • Multi-directional elasticity provides a more anatomical fit

I have worn the knee support over my weeks hiking holiday. Comfortable and very supportive. Great price and fast delivery.

Having fallen & damaged my meniscus this was I thought a good solution. Unfortunately, not having slim athletic legs, (I wish!), this rolls over at the top, slides down & lasts in place about 15 minutes until it feels that the rolled bit has cut the blood supply. Not the best & not the solution for me personally.

Slight looseness behind the knee, but works well. When first wearing you can feel warmth generated around the joint

Ordered this item.. arrived the following day!
Item as described on website. Good quality. Makes knee feel secured without being over tight.

All in all very pleased with everything from ordering to the actual product.

The product is well made but highlighted a problem with standard measurements. I measured as instructed, which was the same as another knee supplier support, but after a few uses the new one stretched and now gives very little support. A pity as the material quality is very good

Bought these for my father to support his arthritic knees to encourage him to walk a little bit more daily. Measured them twice to ensure a good fit but they don't seem to stay put and slide down. He pulls them back up during his walks but may need to purchase another set later on. Slightly disappointed that they've stretched so much already but he does say they help him walk forwards through his knees instead of waddling.

Thing slips all the time. Advised to get smaller size, although I had measured several times exactly as told. A smaller size would cut off my circulation. Advised by physio and pharmacists that such designs are no use as there is no way of keeping them in place. I'll know better in future.
