1) The thick neoprene retains much of your natural body heat, keeping the knee joint warm and fluid, promoting increased blood circulation.
2) There are two adjustable straps above and below the knee which have multiple points of attachment for a fit that will not fall off or loosen over time. The straps allow you to fully adjust the fit of the brace against your leg, whether you want a looser one for everyday wear or a tighter one for exercise or game day.
3) The reinforcing layer of neoprene at the patella opening gives you an added layer of cushioning and protection, while also keeping your knee in place and helping guide it properly through a normal flexion and extension.
4) The open patella means that there is no compression on the patella itself, so you will not aggravate any current injuries.
The wrap around style makes this support an ideal choice if a pull on style support is not appropriate.
