How the Lateral-J Patella Stabilizer Works

A defining feature of this knee brace is its repositionable silicone Lateral-J patellar buttress. The buttress attaches using a hook-and-loop compatible system so its position can be customized for the wearer's anatomy and desired direction of patellar support.

This adjustable design is particularly useful when a patellar tracking brace or J brace is needed rather than a general-purpose compression knee sleeve. The patellar support is combined with dual-axis hinges to provide additional knee stabilization.

Dual-Axis Hinged Knee Support

The brace incorporates hidden dual-axis hinges that provide stabilization while maintaining a low-profile design. The hinges are bendable and shapeable to facilitate fitting and adjustment and include condyle pads for additional comfort and support.

The hinges can also be removed for maintenance and cleaning.

How to Choose Your Patella Stabilizer Size

With the leg fully extended, measure the circumference of the leg 6 inches above the middle of the patella (kneecap). Use the measurements below to select your size.

Sizing incorporates material stretch, and the brace is intended to stretch during application for a proper fit.

How to Put On the Hinged Lateral-J Knee Brace

1. Loosen all straps.
2. Center the brace and pull it up over the knee.
3. Determine the desired direction of support for patella stabilization.
4. Position the silicone buttress and apply the patella strap laterally.
5. Position the removable straps as desired, secure the upper strap, and then secure the lower strap through the links.
6. If customization is needed, remove the hinges from their pockets and shape them as desired.
