The Mueller Hg80 Hinged Knee Brace is simply the ultimate brace for weak or injured knees. The Triaxial hinge is the standard by which all other hinged knee braces are judged. It simulates the natural tracking of the knee joint producing near-normal motion. The tibial containment system along with a secondary shell and patella buttress help support the leg and relieve pain while stabilizing the patella during activity. The upper and lower strapping system offers added compression to lock the brace in its proper position. The sleeve features Mueller's exclusive HydraCinn® fabric with an antimicrobial application to help you stay cool and dry. The moisture-wicking material provides better heat management and enhanced comfort for greater performance.

- Helps my knees a bit
-
Have a large torn meniscus and need a knee replacement and these have been so good for reduction of pain and good support while being able to exercise.
- Has held up great
-
After crashing on my motorcycle and several leg and knee surgerys this is a much needed relief. I have worn it every day for months and it has held up great.

Excellent knee brace.
- Helps my hypermobile knees
-
I love my Mueller Hg80 Hinged Knee braces. I have hypermobile knees, arthritis, and have had a meniscus repair. My knees hurt and are unstable. I wear my braces nearly everyday all day. My Mueller Hg80 Hinged Knee braces relieve most of my pain. They are breathable and do not restrict my movement. They also have patella support under the knee. This is my second pair and with daily use they seem to last about a year. They do seem to run a little small.
- Gives me good freedom of movement
-
Freedom of movement is excellent. I feel virtually no restriction as I kick, plant, pivot, grapple, etc. The HydraCinn material allows your skin to breathe and so your knees don't get so sweaty. It really does what it purports to do. Moisture is wicked away and the anti-microbial aspect keeps it as clean smelling as possible. It's also easy to wash by hand and drys quickly.
I've had mine for seven months, washing it by hand or machine almost daily. It's still in excellent condition.
The only problem I've had is that due to the rough and tumble nature of martial arts, the material covering the hinges has worn away somewhat and I've had to tape it up.
I'll be using only this brace until technology gets better. The price may be higher than the average brace but it's well worth it.
- Just not what I liked
-
Returned. Just not what I liked. You have to slip it on then Velcro it. I bought one that just velcros on.
- high quality
-
Works great and fits. It is non allergic for me as others have been.
- Good Purchase
-
This product offers great support and I highly recommend it as it definitely stabilizes the knee and improves the overall comfort when running. I couldn't do half the amount of exercise without these braces.
- Allows a good amount of bending
-
I recently dislocated my knee and tore some surrounding ligaments. After searching through the reviews of multiple braces, I decided on this one. The metal hinges prevent any sideways motion, but still allow for a good amount of bending. The patella support seems to help a bit, but I don't notice that as much. Some reviewers claim the sleeve slides down their leg, but I have not had this issue. It all depends on your leg measurements and what size you buy. I couldn't decide between a medium and a large - my knee measured in what should be a medium, but I know I am more muscular and therefore a medium might be tight around the top and bottom (15" knee measurement, 16.5" calves, 21" lower quad). Based on previous reviews of it tending to slide down, I decided to just try the medium anyway, in case the large was too big. It was super hard to get on the first time, but once I managed to get it on that initial time, it went on easier after that. And it does not slide off at all, after a week of wearing it. It provides plenty of support without adding too much bulkiness. For the price, I don't think you could find a better brace.
- Good hinge knee

Using my Hg80 hinged brace for sporting activities and hiking. The brace hinges give me support and keep my knee from giving out when I'm walking. Bought two - very happy with my Mueller hinge braces.
