Is the size based on the measurement of the center of kneecap of thigh?

The size must be measure about 5" above the knee while you are sitting down in a chair

Not really sure. I purchased these based on the measurement at the fattest (where I'm retaining fluid) section of my knee which was a medium and fit perfect. When I purchase of other ace knee supports my size is medium yet most seem to be small/medium. When I tried a medium at the doctors office I could not get up to fit the knee. So I purchase large which seems to be large/extra large. Most are not really extra large. Each type and style is as different as anything else you have try it on.

My response is based on a conversation with my physical therapist. Their advise was to choose a sleeve size based on the circumference difference between your knee and your thigh. If your knee and thigh is similar in size choose 16" - 18". If your knee is smaller, then choose 14" - 16". The larger the circumference difference, the greater likelihood the sleeve will slip down. Following this advise, I purchased the 14" - 16". It's a little tighter than I like, but it doesn't fall when exercising.

Ed, are you trying to treat knee oa? Our wrap will fit up to a 35" thigh. We do sell a larger custom, but I would need a measurement and you would have to probably order that through me. We can definitely accommodate your need either way.

My measurement at the knee cap is exactly 16 inches and I ordered a LARGE which is a perfect fit.

I finally found it on the page when you click on the knee brace it says sizing a small is 14 to 15 1/2 for small you measure the circumference right above your knee cap for sizing

Yes it is fully adjustable. I measured around my knee it is approx 18 inches, just above my knee approx 21 inches and upper thighs are approx 26 inches. There is also plenty of velcro strap to secure the brace

I really didn't for sure. I measured my knee but that really wasnt a help. In the end I just guessed.

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, as the picture of the knee brace readily shows how to wear this (wider part above the knee, lower part below). My best guess at this is that you're asking about the gel portion of the brace? If so, that should encircle the knee cap (so that the top/center of the knee cap is NOT covered)

I do not know about the knee cap inches but I do know there is plenty of Velcrow along the whole strap and is quite comfortable to wear.

Yes , providing that your thigh is not above average size you should be fine .

I would measure the thickest part of your leg, in my case the mid-thigh, as the brace extends from mid-thigh to the mid-calf. It also includes plastic braces which may dig into fatty areas. I removed mine, but it rendered the brace too big. The brace is rather comfortable for a more muscular leg with less discrepancy between top and bottom widths.

Follow the specs on the website. The size of the leg above and below the knee may need consideration.

I have a larger leg circumference so that affects the surface area accomdoated. The contact points for me are just a bit to the outside of the knee cap itself. If you are experiencing pain directly on the knee cap or below it (i.e. shin area) this would likely cause a dilemma for you, otherwise you would be alright I would think. If it is in the area that would create a dilemma, (lamentably I have had pain there too!) I have used a standard ice pack with an ace bandage. Best of luck

Measure around the leg over top of the kneecap and order according to the size chart shown. The brace is shaped to accommodate the shape of the leg. At least it worked fine for me.

I took the measurements of my knee from the center of the knee cap up about 41/2 inches and then around the leg in that area. My knee brace was just right and feels good. Best of luck.

I remember purchasing based on "size" and there was a measurement tool on their website. I would check that out first... mine is tight enough to stay on yet not so tight to inhibit circulation. http://www.bauerfeindusa.com/en/products/supports-orthoses/knee-hip-thigh/genutrain.html
