Limit the movement that increases strain on the lateral knee and provide support to the knee during running
The dual density pad anchors the spiral strap below the knee, this strap keeps the lower leg from rotating internally while maintaining proper alignment.
Comfortable fit
Uses thin and breathable materials on the main body and at the back of the knee. It does not get bulky during running and provides breathability and a comfortable fit.
Three-dimensional cutting for an ideal fit for runners
Applied with unique three-dimensional cutting (patented) that allows for and does not interfere with running motions
Stability for unstable horizontal balance
With specially designed "Active resin stays" (patented in Japan) that can reduce lateral movement and make the knee bend and stretch smoothly which may reduce the strain on the knee.
