Well designed/made, but not a perfect fit for everyone It’s a very well made support that holds its shape and distributes the pressure well so it doesn’t dig in anywhere, but they really mean it when they say it fits most calves. If you have an extreme difference in size between the top of your calf and your ankle, you may find this isn’t a perfect fit. While it is highly adjustable, it will pucker between the Velcro tabs if there is a big disparity.
Like several others have said… VERY strong fumes… People are not exaggerating when they mention the odor. It is VERY strong and made the entire room smell like tar/rubber. I bought two and when I wore them I got nauseated from the fumes and had to put them in the dryer to air out (which did nothing for the fumes btw). Soaking them now and will update this review. Have never bought clothing where I needed to wash out the chemicals before wearing.
Good Construction I’m not using it as a calf brace, but I can say the velcro is just the right balance between holding and letting go, though it is very prone to stick to everything it gets near. Brace itself is shaped (not just a tapered tub). Velcro tabs are a nice, big size to spread the load around.
