Which Size Is Right for Me?

Available in eight different sizes (including a kids’ size), it is important to ensure you choose the right size to ensure the support fits anatomically. Measure the circumference of the thigh 15cm above the kneecap (as shown) and then consult the table below to find the right size. If your measurement falls between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the next size up for better comfort.

Who Can Use the Donjoy Strapilax Knee Support?

The Donjoy Strapilax is best suited for people recovering from knee injuries or suffering from chronic knee pain. With a high level of compression, the brace provides pain relief and healing to individuals with the following conditions:

• Acute knee injuries

Can I Use the Donjoy Strapilax for Sports?

The elastic strapping makes this support ideal for use while playing sports. When resting, you can wrap up your knee with the strap to increase compression to quickly reduce pain and swelling. Then, when your back out on the field or court, loosen the strap or take it off entirely for added comfort and mobility as you move.

Custom Compression

Using the elastic strapping, you can choose how tightly you wear the Donjoy Strapilax Support. If you’re in extreme pain or there’s lots of swelling, tighten the strap to increase compression and encourage blood flow. Once your knee then starts to recover, you can then loosen the strap to give yourself more freedom of movement.

Anatomically-Contoured Padding

Featuring an anatomically contoured knee pad, the Donjoy Strapilax stabilises the patella and improves compression for added pain relief. The pad is equipped with small nubs that massage the area and stimulate blood flow to help reduce swelling and relive pain.

Exceptional Comfort

Unlike most leg supports, the Donjoy Strapilax is pleasant and comfy to wear. Made with breathable, soft-knit fibres, the brace doesn’t get too hot, sweaty and uncomfortable. In addition, the elastic, anatomic design means the support fits like a glove, so you’ll hardly notice you’re even wearing it.

Is the Donjoy Support Allergy Friendly?

Yes, made with biocompatible yarn, the Donjoy Support is completely latex and PVC-free. This helps prevent any irritating rashes from appearing on your leg.

New Non-Slip Bands

This version of the Donjoy Strapping Knee Support now features silicone coated bands at the top to hold the support secure when in use during physical activity.
