Title: no good for bent knee sports, aka brazilian jiujitsu
Product review: Yes, the brace offers very good protection for the knee--as long as your leg is pretty straight. But if you're doing brazilian jiujitsu where you're on your knees a lot, the knees bent, they just aren't any good.First of all, the brace puts a lot of pressure on a bent knee--the internal support "pushes back" a lot when bent.Then, after using these for a few weeks for jiujitsu, one of them actually split in the back.Another issue I found for jiujitsu is that the brace kept falling off. So on the one hand it was too tight for a bent knee, and on the other, it kept slipping off. I did try a size larger and those came off even quicker.So I have to assume these are more for stand-up wrestlers, or boxers, or baseball players. But for jiu-jitsu, a big "no."I do want to commend worldwide sport supply--they are processing my return on these with no problem. Good shop.
