Who Can Make Gains with the McDavid Knee Brace?

The back plays a major part in turning and keeping us stable during sport, so back pain can really hamper athletic performance. Using a simple hook and loop design, the McDavid Back Brace offers customised compression to support the lower back and abdominal muscles. The neoprene build is also thin and flexible, so won't get in your way during a match or game.

McDavid's High-Performance Neoprene

For their Neoprene Back Braces, McDavid use a non-petroleum neoprene variant with an advanced cell structure. This makes it specially engineered to improve performance in the following ways:

• Superior compression for improved healing
• Greater therapeutic insulation
• A lighter build without sacrificing support
• Longer-lasting comfort

Customised Fit with Hook and Loop Strap

The McDavid Back Brace is secured with an easy-use hook and loop strap. Not only does this allow the brace to fit most people, it also gives you as tight or loose a fit as you want, for customised compression.
