{"product_id":"aluminium-hinged-knee-brace-gel-pad-anti-slip-straps","title":"Aluminium Hinged Knee Brace – Gel Pad \u0026 Anti-Slip Straps","description":"\u003cp\u003eA hinged brace usually asks for something in return. It is heavier than you expected, it is a job to get on, and after a fortnight it lives in a drawer while you go back to a stretchy sleeve that does much less.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hinges on this one are aluminium, and that is the entire argument for it. You get the firm lateral support a hinged brace is bought for, without the weight that makes people quietly stop using theirs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStaying up is the other half. Two silicone strips grip the leg and four straps hold the tension, which together are what keep a hinged brace at the knee rather than around the calf twenty minutes into anything strenuous.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth the front and the back are cut open. Nothing sits over the kneecap, and heat has an exit behind the knee rather than collecting in the crease. A soft gel pad seats the cap itself and takes the edge off each step.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSizing comes in three broad bands, so the straps do the fine-tuning rather than the label. If you sit near the top of a band, expect to pull the straps in a little further than you would on a brace sold in single sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium Hinges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGel Pad Over The Kneecap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilicone Grip Plus Four Straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut Open Front And Back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Winslow Lane","offers":[{"title":"S","offer_id":43297477001293,"sku":"WL--GENO-S","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"M\/L\/XL","offer_id":43297477034061,"sku":"WL--GENO-MLXL","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXL\/3XL\/4XL","offer_id":43297477066829,"sku":"WL--GENO-XXL3XL4XL","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/4445\/6781\/files\/967bed665429acf3bfdc7600d15223d7.png?v=1784745162","url":"https:\/\/www.winslowlane.com\/products\/aluminium-hinged-knee-brace-gel-pad-anti-slip-straps","provider":"Winslow Lane","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
