    Question
    I'm looking to get knee braces but i don't know which size i should get since i have no clue on how to measure the knee. And i need advice on how to measure it. Thanks.

    Answer

    Dear Antoine:

    Thank you for your inquiry.  A knee brace is one of those products that you need to try on to find out if it meets your needs.  However, generally speaking, the sizing of your knee brace should go in propotion with the regular size of clothing you wear.  If you wear medium size clothes, start out with a medium size knee brace. If your leg muscles are developed, you may wish to go one size larger.  Please contact us with any other questions.
