Everyday ACL Support for Non-Contact Sports!
The DonJoy ACL Everyday Knee Brace by DJO represents DonJoy’s most comfortable, easiest to use, lightest, patient-ready knee brace and is ideally suited for non-contact sports and activities of daily living. This Donjoy knee brace is perfect for mild ACL/MCL/LCL instabilities, such as with a partial ACL tear, and is designed to provide comfortable support for patients who are non-surgical candidates needing additional support to prevent buckling of the knee with everyday walking activities.
This ACL Everyday brace is extremely lightweight at only 15 oz and features a low profile 13" brace length to accomadate people with short leg inseams. This Donjoy brace model is constructed out of aircraft-grade aluminum for a lightweight yet strong design. The Everyday ACL knee brace also has an ergonomic, swooping thigh and calf cuffs designed to provide easy clearance for the non-involved leg with walking activities. This model also has comfortable contoured, flexible cuff shells to conform to any size patient thigh, and Sili-Grip strap pads to enhance proper brace suspension, and to prevent the brace from sliding down the leg. 10 degree soft stops are built into the hinges themselves to reduce impact noise when the knee is quickly extended fully. And like all Donjoy ACL braces, this model also features the patented Four Points of Leverage design to provide exceptional knee support with any type of activity.

Four Points of Leverage Design:
The Four Points of Leverage combine to successfully apply a net differential posterior force, or constant force to the tibia, which reduces the instability in the ACL.
- Point 1 Anterior: The first point of leverage is the anterior thigh cuff. It acts as a point for rotating the femur anteriorly.
- Point 2 Posterior: The second point of leverage is the posterior calf cuff. It acts as a point for rotating the tibia posteriorly.
- Point 3 Posterior: The third point of leverage is a posterior thigh strap, which is applied while drawing the hinge bars posteriorly on the knee.
- Point 4 Anterior: Incorporating the fourth point generates the crucial opposing force. By tightening and affixing the anterior tibial strap, the hinge is drawn into proper position, and the tibia is rotated posteriorly.
