Adjustable Tension

Designed with Specialist Fabrics
The AirXtend Knee Support is made from a unique blend of materials that offer concerted support while maintaining breathability. The combination of Airprene neoprene and Coolmax provides comfort that does not hinder the wearer's movement.
Breathable Neoprene
Neoprene is known for its heat retentive qualities, which aid in promoting blood circulation and pain relief. However, neoprene can also make supports feel stuffy and uncomfortable. Airprene is a specially made upgrade on traditional neoprene that features perforation holes to increase ventilation, providing a fresh, irritation-free feel for the skin.
Open Patella for Tacking and Comfort
With an open patella, the Vulkan Knee Support surrounds the kneecap to improve tracking and prevent unhealthy rotation and reinjury. The open design also leaves the kneecap free from excess compression and constraint, which helps prevent aggravation of tender or sore kneecaps.
Coolmax Lining
The Coolmax lining wicks perspiration away from the body to keep the skin feeling cool as can be. This removal of moisture will also help to improve hygiene, further enabling the AirXtend Knee Brace to offer relief during prolonged wear. Slimline in nature, it can be worn throughout the day underneath clothing without causing inconvenience.
