McDavid Knee Band for Knee Pain Relief, Support Brace Patella Tendon Knee Strap for Pickleball, Hiking, Soccer, Basketball, Running, Jumpers Knee, Tennis, Tendonitis, Volleyball & Squats

Have jumpers knee in both legs from years of playing basketball & tore my meniscus in my left leg so, safe the say my knees aren’t the best. Wearing these bands provides me so much relief and alleviates me of a lot of pain following playing. Good quality too. Highly recommend for my fellow ballers getting up there in age.

This thing helped me run again after I tore a knee ligament. Rested for two months first, of course, and then slowly worked back up to jogs while wearing this thing. It provides just the right amount of support. I have used it two or three times a week for months and it works just as well as the day I bought it. Has not stretched out or pilled up where the velcro attaches. I even recently bought a second one for the other knee, and had a fantastic run yesterday. The first couple of times I put it on, I would pull on the wrong part of the strap to get it off - I kept pulling on the trimmed edge, instead of the low profile velcro. Not exactly a design flaw, but worth noting. When we went into full COVID19 lockdown in March 2020, I would deal with the stress by running (everything else was closed!). I didn't realize that I jumped from running 9 miles a week to 20+ until two weeks later my left knee popped midrun. I hobbled home, & learned I wouldn't be able to run for months. When I was finally healed enough to try jogging again, the PT told me use one of these. What a miracle worker! I still use it now, months later, and when the other knee started to feel "crunchy" during some lunges the other day, I decided to just run with on each knee from now on, and ordered a second one. Used them both yesterday and couldn't have told you which was the "new" one. Equal support from both.

I have purchased two different brands of patella bands both with the plastic loop that twist and turn causing them to not be effective. These bands do not have that which I really like. My daughter is in high school and select soccer so she developed jumpers knees. She has had great results with these bands so far. My only complaint at this point is I purchased light gray bands so that they would not be as noticible on her legs but received dark gray outlined in Black like another reviewer experienced. If I would have known that I was going to get the wrong ones I would have just ordered black. It is frustrating as a consumer to purchase something and receive something else. For the price I would expect to get What is advertised. They are a bit higher than the other ones I have purchased but seem to be doing a great job holding their position on the knee so far which is the only reason I have not returned. For the company my only advice is to correct your photos so that your customers know what they are purchasing and will not be disappointed as soon as they open the package.

Minimalist construction, yet it does all it's supposed to do, hold that knee joint together! Other straps use a large, bulky pad to keep things in place; this one uses a strategically-placed, comfortable, foam ridge to do the job. This makes the whole band thinner and require less velcro to hold it firmly, yet comfortably on the knee.

Works for patellar tendinitis/jumpers knee.

Seems to work well but way too small. I measured my knee and it was 14.8”. I went with the small size but even so, unless I tighten it extremely, part of the Velcro remains exposed and is directly in contact with my skin. Exchanged for a large. Will see how it fits.

I was using a Cho-Pat Dual action knee brace for the longest time. After many miles on that brace, I needed another one. I decided that because my knee was feeling a little better, I could probably go with a little less support. This strap goes under the kneecap just like the picture shows, and it puts a little pressure upward. I think it works good. I ran a half-marathon with it the day after I got it. My knee ached a little, but during the run it was fine. I am not sure that the ache afterwards was from the changing of braces, or if it was cause this was my first half - either way, I felt that this brace did the job. It was comfortable and easy to use. Lightweight and not bulky at all. I still like the dual action knee brace too. I do not have the patience for physical therapy, so these braces keep my running with runner's knee.

Great knee brace! It is great to travel with. It is very supportive for my knee. 10/10

This is my third McDavid Jumpers Knee Strap. I love them. I've had knee pain for three decades after dislocating my patella multiple times in my early 20s. It was only a year ago when I thought of trying a knee strap to help my knee track without grinding. I researched and McDavid's strap was highly rated so I ordered one. I was shocked at how much the pain was reduced with the strap. I've tried other brands, but they took longer to put on didn't stay in place, or didn't apply pressure properly. The straps wash well. My first band is now losing some of the Velcro grip, but that was after a couple hundred uses. I wish there was a wider assortment of colours, but that's the only downside.

This really helped my patella tendonitis and allowed me to overcome it while I was still exercising.

The nature of my work means i spend at least 12 to 15 hours a day standing on my feet and at least a quarter of that time is running up and down flights of stairs. I recently developed a pinching sensation just below my right knee cap every time i put my weight on the leg which was not in a straight limb manner, making the stairs an uncomofortable part of my day. After looking up a few dozen articles i realized i was developing patella tendonitis and looked for a solution. I could not believe the relief i was looking for would come in such a simple form. TBH i chose The McDavids product based solely on budget reasons as i did not want to lay out too much on trialing such an item (some being 3 or 4 times the price). The quality of the manufacturing seems quite high, with both the feel and ease of use to be excellent as well. Cleaning is a simple matter and does not damage the item as i thought it may. The end result now is i feel better when wearing this during my working days and have noticed a major reduction in discomfort AND and increase in strength when not wearing it.

J'ai une tendinite rotulienne et je n'arrive pas a descendre les escaliers normalement sans, alors que j'y arrive en le mettant donc c'est efficace. Je pense m'en servir de manière sporadique pour éviter d'aggraver less symptômes le temps que la tendinite passe.

I have purchased this at least 3 times. Love the quality. A strap lasts me for about 6 months; I use it 3 times per week for activities such as running, ball sports and hiking.
