Frequently Asked Questions
How should I choose the correct size for this knee brace?
Select from S–XXL. Measure according to the ORTONYX size guidance to match your knee circumference with the correct size. A properly fitted sleeve should feel snug but not restrictive. If you are between sizes or experience edge roll or numbness, consider the next size up and consult a healthcare professional for individualized advice.
Can I wear the ORTONYX Knee Brace with Patella Gel Ring under clothing?
Yes. The slim, 3D knitted profile is designed for low bulk and can be worn discreetly under pants or uniforms. Smooth the fabric and center the patella ring to minimize bunching. For comfort under tighter garments, ensure the straps are secure but not overtightened.
Is this knee sleeve suitable for the left or right knee?
The brace is reversible and can be worn on either the left or right knee. Align the gel ring around the kneecap and adjust the dual straps to achieve balanced compression and stability on either side.
Will the brace stay in place during sports or long work shifts?
The dual adjustable straps help reduce slippage by allowing you to fine-tune compression above and below the knee. For best results, center the patella ring, smooth the knit, and secure the straps snugly without overtightening. Re-adjust as needed during extended wear or intense activity.
What activities is this knee brace good for?
It is suitable for daily wear and common sports such as running, cycling, basketball, hiking, and gym training. The brace provides supportive compression and patellar alignment assistance without rigid hinges, helping you move with confidence while maintaining flexibility.
Can I use this after a knee injury or surgery?
Yes—when advised by your clinician. The sleeve provides gentle compression and stability that can support comfort during rehabilitation. Always follow your healthcare professional’s guidance on when to begin wearing a brace, duration of use, and activity progression.
How tight should I fasten the straps?
Secure the straps so the brace feels stable but comfortable. You should be able to slide two fingers under the edges. If you notice tingling, numbness, coolness, or increased pain, loosen or remove the brace and reassess fit. Do not overtighten.
What is the brace made of, and is it breathable?
The sleeve is 85% nylon and 15% elastane. Its 3D knitted construction promotes airflow and moisture-wicking to help keep skin cool and dry during extended wear.
How do I clean and care for the knee brace?
Hand wash in cool water with mild soap. Rinse thoroughly, gently press out excess water (do not wring), and air dry away from heat. Do not iron. Proper care preserves fabric elasticity and the integrity of the gel ring and straps.
Can I wear the brace all day?
Many users wear it for work or daily activities. Ease into longer wear times and check skin regularly. If irritation, numbness, or discomfort occurs, remove the brace and consult your healthcare professional. Avoid sleeping in the brace unless advised by a clinician.
Is there a hinge or rigid support inside?
No. This is a flexible, knitted compression sleeve with an embedded silicone patella gel ring and dual straps. It is designed for supportive compression and alignment assistance without rigid hinges, allowing free, functional movement.
Will this help with swelling and soreness?
Gentle, consistent compression may support circulation and help manage the sensation of swelling or soreness associated with overuse or mild strains. For persistent or worsening symptoms, consult a healthcare professional for evaluation.
Can I wear it over leggings or a thin base layer?
For best grip and accurate compression, wear the brace directly on skin. If you prefer a thin layer underneath, ensure it’s smooth, non-slippery, and does not compromise fit or increase slippage.
Does the patella gel ring feel bulky?
The silicone gel ring is integrated into the sleeve to cradle the kneecap without excessive bulk. When centered properly, it helps distribute pressure and supports patellar tracking while keeping a low-profile fit under clothing.
Is this suitable for arthritis or meniscus irritation?
The brace provides supportive compression and patellar alignment assistance that can help with comfort in common conditions such as mild arthritis or meniscus sensitivity. Always consult a healthcare professional for a personalized assessment and plan.
