BraceAbility Plus Size Knee Brace - Bariatric Hinged Wraparound Sleeve for Extra-Large Legs and Obese Thighs to Support Meniscus Tears, Arthritis Pain, Tendonitis, Ligament Injuries and Sprains (6XL)

Went with my upper measurement and 7X and it was too large despite accurate measurement. The below knee was so large it went way past the Velcro so I returned it and purchased the 5X which fits perfectly. It is comfortable, gives the support I need to decrease my knee pain.

I love this brace! I have severe osteoarthritis & need a knee replacement on my right knee, but can't afford it right now. I bought this brace to help support my knee until such time I can. I love the front closure - it's so easy to put on, and in addition affords you the ability to wear the brace over your jeans if you want to, rather than under them. In just two days of wearing the brace during the day, my pain level has noticeably decreased. What a surprise! I believe it's because the overall support keeps me from getting the many tiny injuries I usually get daily while stepping a little bit wrong, taking the stairs a bit too heavily, and walking on the uneven ground of my farm. The metal hinges still my knee to bend easily as well. I also like the opening behind the knee. It allows bending without the horrible bunching that sleeve style braces have. My medical insurance doesn't cover durable medical equipment, so I have tried many different braces from local stores and pharmacies in the past. None of them carry the larger size I need, and none of them had the wrap around front closure style. In addition, their prices were in the $30 range. Alot to pay for poor fit and design! I measured wrong (used 6" from the center of the patella rather than 3") and so the 3x is a little smaller than I'd like, but it's still very useable. Next order, I'll get the 4x so I have some extra room. This was in no way the fault of the seller, and I like the brace way too much to return it for a larger size, lol. Last week, my husband badly injured his knee stepping in a hole he didn't see, so he tried on my brace on and he also loves it. We're brace sharing for the time being, but once I order the 4x, I'll be giving him the 3x as his own. I found no problems with the materials, stitching or velcro whatsoever, and find the entire brace to be of great quality and design at a fair price. What more could anyone ask??

Durable material , strong Velcro, it’s comfortable my only issue is it still slides down? I don’t know if I should’ve went a size up because they run small or if I miss measured, but Amazon will not let me return it and get a bigger size, it would have to be the exact same one and that’s not what I need. I need to go up a size but I’ll just keep it and work with the brace sleeve or compression sleeve I guess.

Purchased according to the size chart. Way to large. I should have read the reviews first. I ordered the 5xl because it was "undersized" for my leg measurement. It came oversized, labeled as a 5xl. I see many say they got something way to small. Size chart is not reliable. I will waste their money and return this brace and keep ordering until one fits, or I request my money back. PS: I like the weight of the fabric. It is much more breathable then the one I am replacing.

Wanted to love but slides down when moving

This is the absolute BEST knee brace I have ever had the (dis) pleasure of wearing. BraceAbility has been a KEY component in my personal #FatToFit transition. I went from weighing 387 pounds to 285 pounds in roughly 16 months thanks in HUGE part to these braces. Over the course of this year and a half, I have had to purchase not one not two but THREE different knee braces, from the 6XL to the 4XL. I can run in them, they offer SUPERB support and flexion, and they stay snug to your thighs and calves, no matter how massive. Perfect for Rehabilitation to injured/weakened knees. Perfect for Basketball, Elliptical machines, Walking, Jogging, and just plain Support and Stability (if you have knees with weak ligaments). As you lose weight, you'll HAVE to buy a smaller size to keep that perfect fit; but this is one time you WON'T be complaining…

Not designed for thick thighs, not great at application or putting it on. Compression is great but not great putting it on. I have the previous one and it is great. It will constantly slide down the leg.😬

It is nice and sturdy, fits perfectly.
