Review: Best brace I’ve ever worn - This brace right off the bat was super comfortable and lightweight. It immediately added stability to my leg and made me feel safe. I have a completely torn pcl ligament in my left knee and this knee brace was approved by my physical therapist for daily and sport activities. I am an active weight lifter and roller skater/skate boarder. Never have I had a problem with the brace slipping or moving around. Just make sure you readjust after a couple of hours to insure proper function, atleast that’s what I do. I’m not a huge fan of the compression sleeve because it’s so tight that it squishes all my leg fat and makes it bulge but I feel like it might help some people. So far I’ve had this knee brace for about 6 months and I think it’s time for a new one. I wear it almost everyday because I have no knee stability and cannot do any activity without it. The brace straps are coming apart and exposing some sort of plastic middle lining and the straps are becoming too long for the Velcro to reach an appropriate spot because of so much use. Other than that, I’ve always trusted the McDavid brand for all my sports Injuries and will always continue to do so. P.s. I added stickers to my brace to make it more fun :)
Review: Excellent quality. Make sure to follow the measurement instructions - I have a shattered knee cap with torn ligaments that VA Dr's refuse to repair. They have sent me 3 different DonJoy brand knee braces. All garbage. The 1st 2 fell apart and the last one doesn't fit well and made walking painful. When I received this and put it on it fit me perfectly. the motion correction and stabilization is exactly what I have needed for several years. Pain in my low back and hip due to the knee instability disappeared within days.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size do I wear for the 4200 style, if my leg measures 12.5 inches two inches below the center of my knee?**
A: Hello and thank you for your inquiry into our McDavid Bio Logix Knee Brace. With the measurements that you provided I would recommend the small, if you have any further questions regarding these or any of our other items please contact our Customer Service Department through Amazon Messenger and we will further assist you.

**Q: My leg measures 12.5 inches two inches below the center of my knee, what size should I get?**
A: Hello and thank you for your inquiry into our McDavid Bio Logix Knee Brace. With the measurements that you provided I would recommend the small, if you have any further questions regarding these or any of our other items please contact our Customer Service Department through Amazon Messenger and we will further assist you.

**Q: I’m looking for a brace that will apply pressure from the outside of the knee to relieve pain on the inside. Will this do that?**
A: No this brace will not do that.  It may help stabilize and protect the ACL, but you are looking for a different type of brace.  The brace you described is called an unloading/offloading brace and is used to treat unicompartmental osteoarthritis (OA).  Unloading OA knee braces typically have only a hinge on one side and that hinge applies pressure to "push" the knee and unload/take the weight off of the other side (the side opposite from the hinge).  This pushing action shifts which side of the knee bears the force of weight above it, instead of both sides carrying it.

In your case, you will need a medial unloader because you need to unload the medial side of the knee.  Medial refers to the inside and lateral refers to the outside.  Some OA braces can be worn on either knee and will be labeled as "left medial/right lateral" or "right medial/left lateral" or some variation.  For example, "left medial/right lateral" means that the brace will unload the medial side of the left knee or the lateral side of the right knee.  OA braces that only come in a left or right version are generally designed only for medial unloading and only work if the pain is on the inside.

**Q: Do we measure the knee cap or 2” below knee cap?**
A: Hello and thank you for your inquiry into our McDavid Bio-Logix Knee Brace.  For this brace you will need to bend your leg at a 45 degree angle and measure directly over the center of your knee cap.  If you have any further questions regarding this or any of our other products please feel free to contact our customer service department through Amazon Messenger.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality. Make sure to follow the measurement instructions

I have a shattered knee cap with torn ligaments that VA Dr's refuse to repair. They have sent me 3 different DonJoy brand knee braces. All garbage.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job, but Velcro is cumbersome.
*by B***R on October 23, 2025*

This is a sturdy and very supportive brace. It definitely protects my knee and unloads the weight. My ONLY complaint are the Velcro straps. This brace would be perfect if it had a buckle so that the Velcro doesn’t have to be peeled off each time. Due to the closeness of the straps, they get stuck to each other and are hard to peel off or adjust.
