Orthotics (Braces) - Neoprene Knee Brace

Petellar Stabilizer

Patellar Stabilizer

This support is designed to control subluxation of the patella. The buttress is made of closed cell foam that cups the patella and the straps can be cinched up to apply the appropriate pressure needed. The internal design of this buttress allows for direct maximum control of the patella.

Thinner material allows for maximum control while leaving knee feeling light and cool.
