- How do I pick the right size?
- Measure thigh circumference at the point Bauerfeind specifies on its size chart and match it to S through XL. A brace that is too large slides down; one that is too small pinches behind the knee.
- Is it good for running or sports?
- It suits walking, hiking and light training. For cutting, pivoting or ligament instability, a hinged brace is the safer choice.
- Can I wear it all day?
- Many owners wear it for several hours at a time. Take it off if the back of the knee feels tight or the skin gets irritated.
- Is it machine washable?
- Yes, on a gentle cycle in a laundry bag, and air dry. Do not tumble dry or use fabric softener, which degrades the knit.
- How does it compare with the GenuTrain S?
- The GenuTrain S adds rigid side hinges for more stability. The standard GenuTrain is lighter and less restrictive for everyday pain.
- When is it cheapest?
- It rarely discounts deeply. Watch for seasonal sales at medical supply retailers; the best new price was $100 at Relax The Back as of November 7, 2026.
- Where is the Bauerfeind GenuTrain Knee Support Brace cheapest?
- At Relax The Back, for $100.00, as of our latest check.
