Donjoy Sports Hinged Wraparound Knee Brace
If you're allergic to neoprene, this can limit the number of knee supports that suit you, but when you lead an active lifestyle this can increase the amount of time it takes to recover. The Donjoy Sports Hinged Wraparound Knee Brace is constructed from Drytex, offering you an excellent alternative to neoprene braces. Featuring removable hinges and uprights, as well as breathable material, this brace can be used for most of the stages in the rehabilitation process, and can even be used in comfort when you're returning to sporting activities!
