The support is also fitted with an under sleeve so you remain as comfortable as possible.

Is the Donjoy Reaction Web Knee Brace (Pair) Suitable for Watersports?
This support can assist with the impacts and pain associated with water sports, but if it is used in salt water, it should be rinsed with clean water after each use. It should then be dried, as some components of the brace may wear over time if left waterlogged.
Supplied with an Undersleeve
To maximise your comfort levels, the Donjoy Reaction Web Brace comes supplied with a nylon-spandex undersleeve that prevents the brace from rubbing unfavourably against your leg. Just as breathable and stretchy as the brace itself, this undersleeve provides added protection warmth and comfort without impeding movement.
