Key Features & Anatomical Design*

• Advanced Knitted Construction: The DonJoy Genulax features a multidirectional elastic fabric that moves with your body, providing dynamic and effective compression without sacrificing freedom.
• Bilateral Polycentric Hinges with Rigid Arms: These robust hinges are the core of the brace’s stabilizing power, offering enhanced medial and lateral stability to control unwanted side-to-side movement. They can be easily removed if your recovery progress allows for a lower level of support.
• Anatomically Contoured Knee Pad: This pad is strategically designed to cradle the kneecap (patella), aiding in its stability. It also provides a gentle massaging effect and helps improve proprioception—your body’s awareness of the joint’s position in space.
• Adjustable Straps for a Custom Fit: Features dedicated adjustable straps around the thigh and lower leg, allowing you to fine-tune the level of compression and support exactly where you need it for a personalized, secure fit.
• Non-Slip Silicone-Coated Bands: Integrated bands are coated with silicone to help prevent the brace from slipping down, even during vigorous activity and under stress, ensuring it stays in the correct position.

Comfort & Wearability Enhancements

• Anatomical 3D Knit Design: The DonJoy Genulax is engineered to follow the natural contours of your knee, this design ensures the compression and support are both effective and precisely targeted for optimal performance.
• Extra Soft, Breathable Elastic Knit: The primary fabric is designed for enhanced comfort against the skin, promoting airflow to help keep you cool and dry during wear.
• Strategic Stretch Zones: Specially designed stretch zones over the kneecap and the back of the knee significantly aid in breathability, comfort, and freedom of movement, preventing the brace from feeling restrictive.
• Compression-Reduced Edges: The edges of the support are engineered to divert pressure away from the ends of the brace, preventing uncomfortable pinching or digging and providing an overall more comfortable wearing experience.

Practical & User-Friendly Attributes

• Lightweight and Low Profile: The DonJoy Genulax is designed to be discreet under clothing, offering substantial support without the bulk of traditional braces.
• Ambidextrous Design: Conveniently fits both the left and right knee, adding to its versatility.
• Easy Maintenance: The brace is fully machine washable, making it easy to clean and maintain for daily use.
• Latex-Free: Crafted with materials that do not contain natural rubber latex, making it a suitable choice for individuals with latex sensitivities.
