How Does it Work?

Support is provided by the reinforced HydraCinn fabric exclusive to Mueller which is a tough high performance fabric with moisture wicking and anti-microbial characteristics. The elastic compression provided helps to reduce the potential for swelling to develop in the knee joint (joint effusion) The warmth and support provided reduces injury risk and aids optimum function and flexibility.

Its versatile design and stabilising straps allow a custom fit.
