How Does the Donjoy Tru Pull Stabilise the Patella?
True to it's name, the Donjoy Tru Pull features independent anchors which prevent rotation and provide a consistent "true" pull on the patella. The elastomeric pull device provides a dynamic rubber band effect that works to avoid lateral subluxation, and which protects the knee from overextension during movement.
How Comfortable is the Donjoy Tru Pull Brace?
Made from breathable materials, the Tru Pull Knee Sleeve provides lasting comfort for the skin, even when worn during sports or for long periods of time. With elasticated traction, the brace moves with the user, providing them with the flexibility and control to feel uninhibited throughout the day.
