Cho-Pat Original Knee Strap, Patella Support for Runner’s Knee, Jumper’s Knee, Osgood Schlatter’s, and Chondromalacia, Black, Medium

I had a partial tear of my lateral collateral ligament coming off a mountain a few years ago. Ever since then I started having severe lateral knee pain with prolonged descents. I typically will put in 15-20 mile days over a lot of elevation changes so this pain was a huge barrier to what I love. A friend of mine who is an orthopedic surgeon suggested I try the cho-pat strap. My expectations weren't terribly high but this thing has performed like a champ. I still feel small twinges of pain on my longer mileage days but nothing even close to what was going on before. My wife and I both swear by these. If you have lateral knee or pes anserine pain with descents I'd give this a try.

It worked as advertised but is so small it’s been misplaced already.

Definitely helped patellar tendonitis but the Velcro strap is just ok. Have to adjust it too frequently in my opinion and sometimes it falls off on its own. Way better than chopat strap however

I developed patellar tendonitis while golfing. I tried various braces, and some worked, but I wanted something more minimalistic for wearing outside on hot summer days. This provides the needed pressure to the tendon while also being fairly minimal so my knee doesn't get too hot and sweaty. Highly recommended.

This was not comfortable behind the knee.

This thing sucks, it’s uncomfortable due to the thick Velcro on the back. It scratches the back of my knee. It is super bulky compared to others as well. I’m definitely going back to my rubber-band type strap which I would definitely recommend.

Great knee brace, helps with the pain while walking.

Okay, first impression. This strap really works! I had been using the double strap by Cho-Pat which worked to ease my knee pain, but often though I thought I would like to try this one and see if it's all I needed. I felt instant relief when I put it on and again today during my drive to work and while at work too. I will report back if I see a change, but right now, it feels amazing!
