This is a patellar tendon knee strap. It applies pressure on the tendon above the kneecap. This reduces the force of the quadriceps on the patellar tendon and the wear on the under-surface of the kneecap.
The design gives support above and below the kneecap without restricting movement. Silicone pads contour to the kneecap and absorb shock. The inserts press on the tendons and nerves to support the knee.
The strap is easy to put on and take off. It has adjustable straps and can be worn under or over pants. Order two for a pair.
