Is there a very tight band around the top and bottom of the support. I tried the Tommie Copper and it was so tight it bruised my leg, returned it.

I bought this for my son. He says it fits great, and he wears it every day. He would have definitely said something if it was too tight. With Amazon's great return policy, try it. My son wears it to play sports as well as just every day use.

I'm not sure how you guys are wearing this, but maybe I put the band on backwards? It's stretched out to ~18ish in and I think it would it snug on 19. My arms are 12in and I wrap it around almost 1.5 times. I think it would work!

So sorry, I wish I could help, but I didn't have that issue. Mine stayed on very snug. It didn't help much, but it did stay on tightly...under my tights and over top of them as well sometimes.

Occasional I do find myself having to adjust because there is a little discomfort, but it's not a constant everyday/ every wear issue. the little side supports are more uncomfortable to be honest so I started sticking a little cotton ball in between on each side to prevent the little poke. hope that helps:-)

I have both, and I prefer the ultra. The regular barely feels like any compression. It's much more comfortable, but it doesn't make a big difference for me. I should mention I use them primarily because I have low blood pressure, instead of solely athletic reasons. The Ultra makes a big difference, and the regular maybe makes a slight difference, but really just feels like I'm wearing snug leg warmers. I agree with the first reviewer though, the top band of the ultra does bind.

Hello, this belt was recommended to me by my physical therapist. I had hip pain resulting from knee injury. Anyway, he said to wrap it around the hip bones. It did help but because the band was not wide (top to bottom) enough, it did not stay in place and would slip out after a short while. It would have stayed on better if it's a couple of inches longer in height. I ended up not using it at all. If you decide to wear it anyway, it would work for walking, but keep in mind that if you sit down, it will slip out.I hope my feedback helps. My apologies for the delay in responding. I was out of town. Hello, this belt was recommended to me by my physical therapist. I had hip pain resulting from knee injury. Anyway, he said to wrap it around the hip bones.

This is just a small band that fits under the knee. It isn't a brace. I am very heavy and like this type of band because it has a long Velcro strap that will fit anybody.

I did not use mine too long...I have narrow feet, but it was too tight and eventually hurt. I had to quit wearing it. A great pair of custom made orthodics along with daily stretching of my calf muscles helped a lot.

No - its like a rubber band material across the top... its very stretchy and conforms to the size of your leg... its a little tricky with hairy legs, but after a time or two you will learn how to get it on easily - it doesn't squeeze too tight, if thats what you are asking. Just enough to keep the water from streaming in. We bought 2 different ones of these when our son broke his leg - and this was the better of the two!

I think it depends on the size if your head. It is not tight on me, but it is on my husband.It is a firm band, not flimsy

While I'm no expert, I've noticed at times discomfort myself. I think you need to be sure you wear good shoes to take some of the immediate pressure from hanging. You have to remember you are hanging your entire weight off your ankles. I have shifted my weight more to tops of my feet when I've noticed the discomfort.

That is what I used this pillow for most of the time. I liked having the flat side against my lower leg and the round side against my top leg. The pillow stayed in place. I rested the pillow lengthwise from my knee to my ankle which gave my whole leg support. I had tried the "knee" pillow that had a Velcro strap but it did not work for me at all! The strap did NOT hold it in place when I rolled over, it was harder then I liked and it hurt my hip (I had hip replacement) as it tilted my leg down as I rested my ankle on my lower leg.Hope this helps you in making your decision.

I only own the Military Strap Trainer system from Woss. If the difference is on the width of the band, I would of preferred it on the wider side instead. Why, because sometimes I do use a TRX system with my PT and I realized the difference was in the width of my military strap was smaller, making it a bit of a harder workout and the handles were not as cushiony. Although functionality wise, everything works well with what I have and am very happy with the military strap system.

I remember purchasing based on "size" and there was a measurement tool on their website. I would check that out first... mine is tight enough to stay on yet not so tight to inhibit circulation. http://www.bauerfeindusa.com/en/products/supports-orthoses/knee-hip-thigh/genutrain.html

I got the older production and it did not. But i had no problem with the band coming loose at all. I am using fitbit charge now.

Mine is fine......I think that you might have stretched it to much when you put the little tracker in place. It only fits one way and it took me awhile to remember just how it went......and now it slips in easy without any ouching and pulling and definitely not stretching......I had to buy another band because the original band broke from being in the same position all of the time....at least that is what I think.
