It hurts in one spot below the kneecap. Not in the whole knee.
Down the stairs. After a few kilometres. When you get up off the sofa. It's the same small area every time, just below the kneecap. Yet everything you've tried wraps the whole joint and presses everywhere except where you actually feel it.
The compression sleeve
Warms the whole knee, bunches in the back of the knee and turns sweaty after half an hour.
The big brace
Built for unstable joints. Bulky under your trousers and takes away the movement you want to keep.
The cheap knee strap
Wanders down after ten steps. You spend more time adjusting it than using it.
Our knee strap solves both: targeted pressure on a small area below the kneecap, with a silicone surface that grips the skin so the strap stays where you put it.
Support exactly where you feel it, without wrapping the whole knee
A narrow strap with a soft silicone pad that you place just below the kneecap. No material behind the knee, no heat around the whole joint.

Built to stay put when you move
A silicone surface that grips
The pad sits directly against the skin instead of sliding on fabric. That friction is what keeps the strap in place through squats, stairs and walks.
A free back of the knee
No material behind the knee means nothing to bunch up when you bend. You keep full movement in your stride, your squat and the stairs.
Open-weave band
The weave lets air through instead of trapping heat like a neoprene sleeve. Less sweat means you can keep it on for the whole session.
Adjusted in ten seconds
The hook-and-loop tightens steplessly, so you find the right pressure without a size chart or tape measure. Wrap, tighten, test a stair.
This strap is made for one specific situation
It's most relevant when the discomfort sits gathered just below the kneecap and shows up when the knee is loaded bent: stairs, downhill, squats, running, jumping or when you get up after sitting.
- Placement: Just below the kneecap
- Fit: Adjustable hook-and-loop, one size
- Contact surface: Soft silicone pad
- Band: Open-weave, breathable
- Use: Walking, work, training
- Care: Hand wash, air dry
The size isn't a compromise. It's the whole point.
A compression sleeve spreads the pressure over the whole joint and therefore concentrates it nowhere. Our knee strap does the opposite.
The pressure gathers on a small area
The silicone pad sits over the tendon area below the kneecap. A narrow band puts the pressure there instead of spreading it out, which is the whole difference from a sleeve that squeezes around everything.
Friction against skin, not against fabric
The category's most common complaint is that the strap wanders down. The silicone surface grips directly against the skin, so the position you set is the one you still have after the stairs.
Less material, less heat
Open-weave band and no fabric behind the knee. Air passes through, sweat doesn't gather, and you avoid what makes most people leave their knee support in the drawer.
Research on knee straps below the kneecap shows reduced pain during certain loaded movements in some people with tendon problems. The effect varies between individuals, and a strap does not treat the cause of knee problems.
The details that decide whether it stays put
Three different tools for three different problems
I'd stopped taking the stairs down to the garage. After a week with the strap I take them without thinking about it first. It sits exactly where I put it when the day is over.

Ten seconds, three steps, then you forget it
Find the edge
Feel for the lower edge of the kneecap. The silicone pad should sit just below it, over the tendon area, not on the kneecap itself.
Tighten just right
Pull it tight until it feels firm but doesn't pinch. No numbness, no tingling. Too tight and it does more harm than good.
Test the movement
Bend the knee and take a couple of stairs. If the pressure feels right and the strap stays put, you're done. Otherwise move it a centimetre and test again.
What you're wondering before you order
How is this different from a sleeve? A sleeve compresses the whole joint and warms it. Our knee strap does something else: it puts an adjustable pressure on a small area below the kneecap and leaves the rest of the knee free. They're two different tools, not a better and a worse one.
Is it right for me? It depends on where your discomfort sits. Sleeves and braces are built for general compression and instability respectively. If the trouble is gathered just below the kneecap and shows up under load, a narrow strap is a different kind of support. If the cause is something else, this strap won't solve it either, and then you'd rather send it back.
Will it stay in place? The silicone pad grips the skin instead of resting on fabric, which is what keeps the strap in position through squats, stairs and longer walks. Worn directly against the skin, the grip works best.
What size do I need? The hook-and-loop adjusts steplessly and fits most knee circumferences, from slim to heavier legs. No size chart and no tape measure. If you're between settings, choose the one that feels firm without pinching.
Can I wear it for a long time? It's made for longer use thanks to the open-weave band, but check your skin and that circulation feels normal at regular intervals. If you get numbness, tingling or skin irritation, loosen it or take it off.
Is this a treatment? No. Our knee strap is a support during activity, not a treatment. It can make certain movements more comfortable while you work on load, strength and rest. For persistent or worsening pain you should seek care.
