Sizing and Fitting Information for the Vulkan Classic Knee Support
The Vulkan Classic Knee Support is available in five different sizes. To select the correct size brace for you, extend your leg until it is fully straight and measure the circumference of your knee across the cap using a fabric tape measure.
If you're struggling, you can use the diagram below as a guide:
Size | Knee Circumference |
Extra Small | 26 - 30cm |
Small | 30 - 35cm |
Medium | 35 - 40cm |
Large | 40 - 45cm |
Extra Large | 45 - 50cm |
Which Thickness Is Right for Me?
If you are after a thinner, more flexible brace for sporting activity, we recommend you select the 3mm variation of this brace. If you are using your brace for shorter, more power based activities like weightlifting and squatting, we recommend selecting the thicker 5mm size.
How Tight Is the Vulkan Classic Knee Support?
Depending on the thickness you select, you'll find that your Vulkan Classic Knee Brace provides a different style of flexible compression. The 5mm thickness is designed for weightlifters and those engaging in short, strength based movements, whilst the thinner, more flexible 3mm variation is designed for all-day wear at work or whilst out running.

Triple Layer Design for Maximum Comfort
The Vulkan Classic Knee Support is designed to provide the therapeutic properties of heat retention provided by neoprene, while promoting air flow. It consists of three layers that deliver maximum support and comfort:
- Protective top layer: the tough nylon fabric is Mauser stitched along key points to provide the strongest possible seam.
- Neoprene core: the closed cell neoprene core insulates and retains body heat for natural heat therapy.
- Aerotherm lining: the construction of the lining allows air to circulate freely, helping to draw perspiration away from the skin.
Made of neoprene to combine comfort with optimum support, the Vulkan Classic Knee Support provides adjustable levels of compression and therapeutic heat retention to help relieve symptoms associated with strains, sprains, arthritis and muscle pain. It is especially ideal for minor tendon and ligament injuries.
