Does it stay in place? My other braces often slip down my leg.

Donna, I have fat knees and thighs and those that slip over the knee roll and cut off the circulation in my knee. This one stays in place for me. It has three straps that you can tighten. I wear them for teaching Aqua Zumba and they work great for me.

Yes, mine does. The Velcro straps let you make it as tight or loose as you want. I make mine really tight and it doesn't slip.

I've never had a problem with them slipping. The Velcro straps can be tightened without being uncomfortable, so it stays in place.

Don't know, Mine does not, I tighten it securely when locking feet in seems to put less stress on my ankles. Maybe you have angle problems of some kind because My ankles don't bother me weather tight or loose on feet lock. Sorry

I haven't had any such problem with this brace. It's comfortable enough for me. But I don't wear it at night I use it only to keep my trigger thumb in check when I'm doing manual work.

Yes! Mine does grip well, I have a slightly velveted chair and I've never had an issue with this slipping. I love it

I have no problem with it slipping once the Velcro is strapped down! This is one of the best inventions ever!

Mine has not stretched out of shape, in spite of regular wear. The side support is probably the most helpful part of the design and, I think that stretching/loosening would defeat the purpose and design of the stabilizers. And it would not be at all helpful if the brace is too sight. Ask your doctor for advice. If you are purchasing this in a pharmacy, ask the pharmacist or pharmacy tech for assistance. And ask if the item can be exchanged it it's too snug, or tto loose.

Yes, I've used it during my workouts and brace does not feel like it's in the way

I found that when worn with trainers it stayed put quite well because when you take the strap off that goes round your foot the Velcro on the splint sticks to the tongue of the trainer.

I wear mine on skin and it stays right wear I place it. I haven't worn it over clothing yet, so I can't speak to whether it stays in place that way or not. I have LOVED this belt, and if I had known of it 1 1/2 years sooner, I would be $1000s richer w/o having spent it in P.T., Chiro, pain management injections, etc., all of which didn't do anything to help my problem. Best wishes to you and I sincerely hope you get as much if not more relief from the belt as I did!!!!

I only use this brace when I'm exercising. If I sit on my legs, they do cut off the circulation as well as sitting for a long time in a chair. If I'm going to take a break from exercising, I usually will pull them down so that the bottom of the brace sits on the ankle and when I'm ready to start either hiking or playing tennis I just pull them back into place. I love this brace, one of the best I've ever worn.

Also Phil, I use a prescripted pain cream and that helps mine stay right in place. So if you are not using anything like that, maybe you can try lotion on your leg first, rub it in, your leg will have the moisture on it from the lotion, then pull your sleeve on. Hope that helps with the slippage! :-)Geneva

Definitely stays up. Finding out my biggest running problem has been weak hip muscles. Working with PT to strengthen them. Might not need knee braces if hips work right. Yea!

only if its not put on correctly, mine sits comfortable to give me extra support on my knees. It certainly doesnt compare to the Orthapedic Brace which is designed to imobalise the knee. I want to still bend and walk so this is just fine for everyday.

I have worn my husband's and it doesn't roll down, but it seems to slide down a bit. I need to have a larger size than his due to my thighs, knee and calves are larger. So I suggest that you determine the size because I think they are worth it for all day wear. You DON'T sweat with these like you do most other braces! They feel good and allow movement with support. Others keep you more stiff-legged and throw the rest of your body out of alignment. Good luck. :)

It stays in place just fine for me. I don't use it on off road terrain very often. I'm more of a bike path type rider. It's very adjustable and doesn't seem to be wobbly or loose at all.

Yes, as long as the brace is not too small/tight for your leg. Mine works like a champ.

No, these fit over the twist lock retainers but they fit so well that I have no problem with them slipping or moving. Had them about 2 months now.
