The World's Greatest Knee Brace!!!
December 19, 2008
My son found this product for our aunt in Florida while we were visiting her and trying to help her regain her strength. She has a bad disc and can't have surgery due to her age and bad heart. We found your product at Publix Food Store and it was so wonderful that I went back and bought two more for myself. They are so comfortable and really made the pain go away. I just couldn't believe how well they worked. I have tried many products for my arthritic knees, which act up when I least expect it. None worked except yours. I thank you so much! You have given me back an active life style, including belly dancing for exercise at age 68. My aunt is almost 85 and while she doesn't dance, she has been walking 3 miles most days until last year. I am hoping she will soon be able to be active again. THANK YOU!!!
It helped me

Not a sexy product but it certainly helped reduce the soreness in my knee from running. It's pretty low tech but it gave me just the amount of support I needed. If you have had a severe knee injury my guess is that this will not be sufficient, but for holding back minor soreness it does a great job.

For 39 years, we have acted faithfully as leg hinges for our guy. During 35 of those years, we never complained, never sprained ourselves, nor twisted ourselves. It was always the Ankle boys down below that were giving him problems. Yet, age took its toll on us and our guy started running, biking, and playing basketball less when he hit the "35 year wall." As a result, the weight that we helped to support for decades gradually began to increase. Our guy tried to run on the treadmill or run on cement sidewalks to trim down, but we kept sending twinges of pain up the lateral side of his knees. He almost quit all physical activity because of the soreness we caused. He tried icing, ibuprofen, aspirin, and beer, but we would not stop wailing. Finally, he read about the Futuro knee supports and decided to wrap us in them to keep us warm and give us some assistance. The supports are great and cheap. They breathe easily and move without cutting off our circulation. When we found out our guy would play two full court basketball games last week, we almost hurled in anticipation of the pain we thought we would feel and cause. But the supports held up during the league double header, wicking away the sweat and keeping us from sending electrical currents of pain up the leg. (Unfortunately, we cannot say that the rest of the body performed as well.) Later, he tried them on a treadmill and reached blazing speeds that could cover an entire mile in 13 minutes. Yet, we hung in there proud to have lasted a full half hour on the "Fat Burn" treadmill setting. Sure, they smell a little weird at first (like rubber dipped in gasoline) but hopefully the big guy washes them once in a while.
Very nice adjustable medium support

I wear these knee supports on both knees when I do martial arts. These provide a true light to medium support --- not as much as tight elastic or neoprene full sleeves, and they do not seem to impede circulation. They dry out nicely and have continued to work well despite repeated washing. Washing is sufficient to get rid of any sweaty smell or odors. I have short legs, but since these are adjustable, the fit is perfect.
very comfortable

I had several other sets of products as knee support, but now I really enjoy this one. Unlike some other products on the market itch the skin surrounding my knees, I feel very comfortable with this set. Will definitely buy more when they are on sale again.
