Who makes the most comfortable, supportive knee braces?

I've been looking at Asterisk Cell Knee and EVS Web Knee, and CTi.

Each of these costs $300 per brace.

Let me know your experience. I want something I can wear all day without it making my leg look like raw hamburg.

Thanks,

Jon

I have had 6 knee surgeries from a car accident in 2001. Although I'm not an expert, I have tried pretty much all of the braces out there. If you have the cash CTi custom fit are without a doubt the best and most comfortable. If your insurance doesn't cover any of the cost you could easily be looking at $1200. As far as off the shelf- go with Asterisk. The key with them is make sure the lacing is adjusted properly and wear a knee sleeve. Hope this helps.

get sponsored by asterik if you buy them...I am not sure what they do for discounts...but I do know they rebuild my friends for free once a year...she wears them every race, has nothing but good things to say about them. The bushings go bad after so long though and the movement in them becomes a little loose. She said since they sponsor her, they rebuild them for free every winter.
