This advanced model offers level 3 support and has been specifically designed utilising a seamless circular knit to provide compressive support to unstable knees. The breathable compressive four-way stretch of the material targets support to the areas most requiring it, mimicking the support and action planes of key ligaments and tendons to reinforce them. The compressive element of the material also stimulates blood flow which can help prevent the build-up of lactic acid during and post activity to reduce the prospect of cramp and stiffness. Steel springs provide moderate medial and lateral support whilst allowing a full range of movement. The cross-over strap system provides all-round stability and support. Great for all day wear as the compression material is thinner than traditional neoprene so there’s less bulk and doesn’t generate heat. Recommended use: relieve the symptoms of arthritis, bursitis and tendonitis. This product is classified as Support Level 3: Pro. It fits left and right and is latex free.
This guide provides essential information for users of the Ultimate Performance® Advanced Compression Knee Support. Designed for adults, this unisex support offers level 3 compression, providing stability and relief for various knee conditions. While offering robust support, it's important to ensure proper sizing for optimal comfort and effectiveness.
