Bauerfeind's most popular knee support, the GenuTrain is anatomically knitted for a precise fit and features an incorporated silicone insert. This comfortable, lightweight support relieves knee pain and swelling during sports or everyday activities.
Features
An incorporated silicone insert leaves the patella pressure free and provides intermittent compression to the soft tissue of the joint leading to increased circulation, thus aiding in the resorption of swelling and edema
Promotes proprioception, thus heightening sensory awareness in the knee for increased joint stabilization
Graduated compression at the edges prevents constriction of circulation
Innovative knit in the popliteal region prevents bunching or pinching
Three dimensional knit with covered patella avoids window edema, yet keeps pressure off the knee cap
Medial and lateral stainless steel stays keep the support from rolling or bunching
Comfortable, lightweight, breathable knit will not retain heat and is machine washable
Designed for: Knee strains or sprains, Knee instability, Post arthroscopy, Recurrent knee pain, Pre and post-operative knee inflammation, Chondromalacia, Adolescent knee pain, Osgood-Schlatter's disease, Arthritis / osteoarthritis, Degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis)

I have recurring knee pain and swelling, which is due to participating in high-impact sports (running and taekwondo). I have bought many types of knee braces to wear during training and have been disappointed with the fit and/or the compression. This is definitely one of the most effective knee braces that I have had the pleasure of wearing! It stabilizes and promotes healing and the reduces pain that might occur during the activity (if you are healing from injury) and swelling that occurs after, while allowing for a nice range of motion. It supports my knee very well without cutting off circulation. It compresses and lightly massages in all the right places, while you are in the activity. If you do a lot of jumping, it will need to be adjusted occasionally during the activity. I too would also recommend getting one size smaller than the one measured for, as it will be nice snug-fit and give a better feeling of support, but allow for some stretching with use.

Comments about Bauerfeind USA Bauerfeind GenuTrain Knee Support:
I ruptured my patellar tendon about 18 months ago. Rehab went well, but I was always leery about playing basketball again. I have bought other knee supports, but they were all so bulky and didn't provide much help. Something about seeing an elaborate contraption on your knee messes with your mind. So much of overcoming an injury is mental. with this knee support you don't think about it. it's sleek enough to not feel like you're wearing a robotic leg. It flat out works! I won't say my knee wasn't a little sore the next day, but it was totally manageable compared to other knee supports I've worn. A test for me is can I squat completely the next day. With these supports I was able to with very minimal discomfort. With the others, I would get about halfway. Just try them. They will help.

Great support on the tennis court. I would not play without them. I tore my ACL six years ago and have worn these supports ever since. I had two pairs and they lasted 4 years each. I just invested in two more sets and feel confident that I will not blow out my knees while wearing them.

For the previous reviewer that gave this 1 star, maybe you should try the Genutrain P3. The regular Genutrain is not for chondromalacia. Don't give it 1 star just because you bought the wrong brace. This knee brace is amazing! I have loose medial ligaments and a torn meniscus in my right knee. I recently started training Brazilian jiu jitsu and injured my knee a couple of times. The first time I was injured, I could barely walk the next day and it took about 1 week for my knee to stop hurting. Luckily, Bauerfeind has a store in my city, so when I was injured the second time, I immediately went to their store since Sports Authority does not sell this amazing product in-store. I put the brace on at 10am and by the evening, my knee no longer hurt and I was able to train that same night without pain. Now I wear the brace whenever I train. I highly recommend this knee brace. It is definitely worth the money. It is less expensive on sportsauthority.com, so if you live in LA and don't need it right away, get it here.

I needed a strong support for a bit unstable and occasionally sore-ish knee. I want to try exercising daily and so I needed more than the usual and customary drug store brace. This works - my knee hardly bothers me at all, and my workouts (plyometrics and hi impact cardio) are pretty intense for me. My only criticism is that it slips a bit and needs readjusting when jumping a lot.
