Actimove Everyday Closed-Patella Compression Knee Brace
General knee pain caused by ageing, overuse or a previous injury can get in the way of everyday life, but this pain is often alleviated by applying firm compression. The Actimove Everyday Closed-Patella Compression Knee Brace does this reliably with an anatomical design that targets critical areas, while the soft material and stretch-zones provide all-day comfort.
What's Included?
Please note that this support is ambidextrous, meaning that it can be worn on either the left or right knee.
Which Size Should I Choose?
The Actimove Compression Knee Support is available in four sizes. To determine the correct size for you, measure the circumference of your thigh just above the knee (as illustrated) with a flexible tape measure and refer to the sizing table below.
Measure around the centre of the knee as shown
| Size | Lower Thigh Circumference |
| Small | 31 - 36cm (12 - 13.5") |
| Medium | 36 - 41cm (14 - 15.5") |
| Large | 41 - 46cm (16 - 17.5") |
| Extra Large | 46 - 52cm (18 - 19.5") |
Sizing Tips
- If your measurement falls between a size boundary, we recommend choosing the larger size for better comfort
- The brace is meant to be compressive, if you would prefer a less tight fit, please choose a larger size
- If you do not have a flexible tape measure, use a piece of strong to measure your knee and then measure it with a ruler
- If your joints swell, please take this into account when choosing your size
