Hey guys, Tony Merrittado here
0:02
I'm a licensed physical therapist and I want to talk to you about knee wraps today
0:05
So I'm going to show you two wraps that I use here in the clinic. We've used these for well over a year
0:10
Pretty heavy use. We use them on almost a daily basis, but I'll show you the wear patterns
0:14
and I'll show you what I recommend and what I like about one versus the other
0:20
So we have two brands. We have a pro-fitness brand and we have a RITFitFit
0:30
it. You can see the red pro-fitness absolutely has a lot more use, but when I look at the extensibility
0:40
of it compared to this one, I would say they both kind of have the same level of stretch
0:48
What I like about this, let me open that back up, the pro-fitness is this has a softer edge
0:57
when you look at this seam compared to the seam on this one
1:02
the pro-fitness just feels a little more comfortable around the upper thigh, around the lower leg
1:08
doesn't dig in quite as much. Both of them, from a Velcro perspective, do a great job
1:15
The Velcro is holding up really well. I do think that the writ fit
1:23
the Velcro is held up just a little bit better. But in both cases, you know, they're totally fine
1:32
I would say that I get a little more stretch out of the pro-fitness than I do the RITFITFIT
1:40
But in terms of comfort, in terms of compression, knee support, I think really you can't go wrong with either brand
1:49
And again, after nearly 12 months of total use, both of these guys have held up incredibly well
