The patella brace successfully controls malalignments of glide, medial/lateral tilt, and anterior/posterior tilt. 1/8" Kuhl perforated neoprene construction for cool compression. Wrap around design allows for independent fitting of the thigh and calf providing a personalized fit to all users.  Medial and lateral spiral stays limit bunching while allowing full range of motion.
