Athletic Injury Hip Brace
Designed for athletes by an athlete. This product is a brace designed with function and flexibility kept in mind. Made to make athletes feel their best when working their hardest.
About
Function
Because of the minimalistic approach of the product, it allows for prime function. Athletes are able to have full participation in their events without being held back by their brace. The plates are small enough and angled in compliance with the joint so that maximum movement can be achieved without any discomfort.
Comfort
The product is designed to allow for maximum comfort throughout the entire time of use. The spandex material used is tight on the skin and fits well under uniforms and athletic wear. In addition, the pieces that support the hip are designed to do their job but also stay out of the way of the upper thigh so that the athlete can make sharp moves without any discomfort.
Flexibility
The brace is designed specifically for athletes, so obviously flexibility was taken into account. Tight stretchy materials allow for athletes to function exactly the way they would normally. The plates inside are shaped on an angle to cater to the types of movement needed in game time situations. The sharp upward angle at the end of the outer piece allows for the leg to come up as high as possible. The middle horizontal pieces allow for the hip to remain stable while still being able to stretch due to the fabric around it.
