Answer:	My thigh is 19, my knee is 15, my calf is 14. I purchased a small. I am 65 and do not have a lot of muscle mass in my thigh. The small works great for me. I would suggest a medium if you have good muscle mass in your thigh.
Question:	will this fit left or right knee
Answer:	It should fit both knees. It is designed for both of them. The sleeve knee braces are where you have to select which knee if I'm not mistaken.

This low-profile patella support brace is designed with pull straps above and below the patella. This puts a "true" and consistent pull on the kneecap during flexion and extension, which realigns the patella. By properly aligning the kneecap you reduce the pain that comes with patellofemoral problems like dislocating your kneecap. The DonJoy Tru-Pull Lite is made of Breath-O-Prene, which is an anti-microbial wicking fabric that is hypoallergenic, breathable, and lightweight. It provides a soft tacky connection with the patella ensuring maximum support, while the independent anchors prevent the brace from rotating. Includes removable plastic hinges, to provide additional medial/lateral stability. The DonJoy Tru-Pull Lite knee brace is ideal for runners, recreational athletes, or individuals who are looking for extra patella support during their daily activities. A dual durometer buttress system interfaces directly with the patella, applying a consistent corrective force.

User questions & answers

Question:	I have Oa can i use this
Answer:	Yes I use mine for surfing to make the brace last adjust slide it on before surfing & slide it off if you keep using the Velcro on & off it will wear out prematurely
Question:	Can this brace be used in water (eg surfing
Answer:	returned this product because even though I measured following their directions I could not get it on.
Question:	What are the measurements for the donjoy performance bionic drytex hinged knee sleeve
Answer:	I am not sure abt this .slightly tight feel is not too bad as it stretches slightly and it has Velcro as well to reinforce both top and bottom areas .
Question:	Can i order a xxl or a xxxl? I have larger than most thighs and calves. Xl is too small
Answer:	Yes they do fit inside the shoe. She didn't have to go to a larger shoe size. My daughter was a senior this year (2015). She ruptured her ankle tendon during her sophomore year. We tried the less expensive braces from Sports Academy her junior year but she had several moderate ankle sprains during the season and summer camps. I purchased the DonJoy Velocity ES at the beginning of her senior year based on her coach's recommendation and she loved it. I then purchased another for her other ankle. She had zero sprains (yes we could have been fortunate also) after she started wearing the braces covering 43 games including becoming the Class 2A Arkansas State Champions (sorry couldn't resist a little bragging). The only thing I can't verify is any speed impact. My daughter is a 6' post player and speed was never her strong suite, but I don't believe the braces slowed her down. Two other girls on her team purchased a DonJoy afterwards and both were very satisfied. I would recommend buying the Extra Support (ES) model, that made a difference in my daughter's confidence in her ankle. Hope this helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the thickness of the neoprene brace? I have an older version of this brace from about 16 years ago and it had two options available then
Answer:	yes
Question:	Is the for left or right knee or is it universal
Answer:	To my knowledge, this is different from a J Brace, as the knee support is U-shaped rather than J-shaped. Previously I had worn DonJoy J Braces. I like the added support of these braces.
Question:	Return policy
Answer:	My leg is 15 inches and I wear the large/extra large which is right at the edge of being too small. They’re quite adjustable as the straps are Velcro. My guess is either size would work for you with the large/extra large being the safer more secure bet.
Question:	Is this the same as a j brace
Answer:	Hello, Thank you for your question. Is the purpose of wearing the sleeve to protect the brace and others from making contact with it? I don’t foresee their being an issue with wearing a sleeve over it, but if you could explain the reason for it we may be able to help you better.

User questions & answers

Question:	can i use this after an acl Reconstruction surgery to walk
Answer:	I would imagine that your surgeon would want you in a custom brace to wear for a while after surgery. Once the critical post-surgery period is over you may be able to use this brace which has a hinge that is designed to prevent the knee from hyper-extending. I wear this brace on my unrepaired knee while playing tennis and after the clunky ones I used to wear, this has been so much lighter yet just as effective.
Question:	Can you wear over pants
Answer:	The size you order should be based on the size of your knee and legs, and not to accommodate pants. The Velcro tabs do allow some room for pants but not a lot. I wear them over leggings and they work fine. They do come with a compression sleeve to go under each brace.
Question:	Quadracepts tendon stability what brace is best
Answer:	I used this brace to do two 5 day hikes. Worked great never had an issue and it was very breathable and fast to put on
Question:	Is this the best brace option for runners knee
Answer:	I have both the performance knee brace as well as the everyday use one. My personal opinion is the everyday use one is more comfortable for me atleast. But I switch between the two during cleaning session. They are both extremely good braces. Hope this helps
