Our Sizing Tips
- This brace is designed to give a tight, compressive fit; if you would prefer less tightness, please choose a larger size
- If you do not own a flexible tape measure, use a piece of string to take your measurement, then measure the string with a ruler
- Please take into account any joint swelling before buying, as this could mean you need a larger brace

Key Features of the Vulkan Classic Stabilising Knee Support

Maximum Support Level
Using a combination of stabilisers for shock absorption and compression, the Stabilising Knee Support provides the highest level support that helps to relieve symptoms associated with strains, sprains, arthritis and repetitive stress injuries, while helping to prevent re-injury. Moreover, it is made of neoprene and consists of three layers that deliver maximum support and comfort:
- Protective top layer: Tough nylon fabric is Mauser stitched along key points to provide the strongest possible seam.
- Neoprene core: Quality closed cell neoprene core insulates and retains body heat for natural heat therapy.
- Aerotherm lining: Specially constructed lining allows air to circulate freely, helping to draw perspiration away from the skin.
How Comfortable is the Vulkan Classic Knee Support?
The triple-layer construction gives the Vulkan Classic a soft, spongy quality that is incredibly comfortable. Although it may seem quite thick at first, the special outer lining helps wick moisture away from the body to prevent overheating and stuffiness. And thanks to its tight, contoured fit, the brace delivers effective compression precisely where it needs to.
Therapeutic Heat Compression
With heat retentive neoprene at the core of the Vulkan Classic Knee Brace, warmth is retained within to enhance the compressive pain-relief. Although neoprene tends to cause overheating in typical braces, the special Aerotherm lining helps wick moisture away from the body to ensure coolness, even during activity.
Correct Fitting of the Hinged Knee Support
The intuitive design makes fitting the Vulkan Hinged Knee Support quick and easy. If you are experiencing any difficulties, please follow the steps outlined below.
- Position the brace so that the open patella is centred over the kneecap
- Fasten the strap below the kneecap to the desired fit
- Fasten the strap above the kneecap to the desired fit
Washing Instructions
In order to extend the shelf life of your brace and prevent discomfort resulting from odour and perspiration, you will need to wash your brace routinely. Please view the instructions in the image below to ensure you do so without damaging or compromising the safety of your support.
