I had a ski accident in 2023 and did a tibial plateau fracture, resulting in multiple metal plates and screws in my leg. Using the Women's Winter Snow Sport Base Layer really helped my leg muscles from getting too fatigued while skiing and also helped my recovery ready to tackle the slopes the next day.

Really enjoyed skiing this year wearing the Imbrace leggings. Felt more in control and no knee pain or fatigue. A really good product.

As someone who has suffered with arthritic knee and hip issues for several years… I wore these to play hockey and they were fantastic…. I possibly could have got the size down as they did slip down a bit but in terms of my knee and hip pain…. Brilliant. Now deciding on whether I get a pair for skiing

just back from Utah, park city and wore these snow sport/ski leggings almost every day for a month while skiing. my wife had my pair that were too small. Both of us came to think of these pants as a vital base layer to keep us warm, and keep our core and our knees supported; I even forgot i was wearing them most of the time. one note, the mens leggings have a front "access" point, which means you can wee easily, without having to pull everything down (like other tights/baselayers), which i really appreciated in -10degrees. great fit and service, where i was offered to return a pair if they did not fit properly (but my wife took them!). i am now ordering a pair of the sports leggings to try for tennis and wildlife photography/hiking. i have been asked to write this review but i am not compensated in any way.
my only wish is that they were a bit cheaper.....but you do get what you pay for.....

Thank you for being super helpful when the snow leggings did not fit my shape. The advice to try the dynamic ones instead was spot on. Excellent customer service and super quick response. I don't normally do reviews but would definitely recommend 10 out of 10

Wore these for an entire week skiing, some days up to 6hrs and 35km. The compression around the knee is very light when standing upright then builds nicely and progressively as the knee bends and load increases. The back panel kept lower back nice and warm and when done up tight gave great support when engaging the core muscles. Had far less pain in the knees after a week than prior ski trips where I have just worn sports compression leggings. Only suggestion would be to replace the waistband lace tie up with a wider stretchy Velcro number for greater core support. Also perhaps an anklet version so can loop the bottom of the tights around the heel.

Hi,

I have brought 3 pairs of these now, the first pair I have been using for 3 seasons and they are still as good as new the only reason I brought the other two pairs was they was on special offer and just 2 good to resist, also I am going away skiing for two weeks so will need all three pairs, I got my wife 2 pairs as well , the actual leggings are just great to wear all day and keep you legs feeling good with the compression also have a knee support built in and as me and my wife ski some demanding slopes and off piste as well with a guide I think they really keep the legs feeling good , I wouldn't ski without them now.
The customer service was fantastic, I would recommend these to all skiers so glad I found them.

Goff recommended this alternative pair to my original order and they fit perfectly and the inbuilt knee support held all week whilst skiing, I’ll certainly be using them for my fitness classes also.

I've used elastic bandage for my knees for skiing for ever. After a week's full-on skiing recently I had real problems with my ageing knees and purchased these leggings after researching and looking at reviews. I have not been disappointed. Although quite costly the quality is excellent. The fit was as expected and comfortable. Unfortunately they didn't prevent knee problems completely but they performed much better than the elastic bandage and gave me greater confidence for a longer day's skiing. Good warm layer also without being bulky. Happy to recommend

Due to years of training I have pretty bad knees. I have arthritis in one (and tore my VMO muscle) and repaired ACL and Meniscus in the other. I only started skiing last year and I was terrified. I wore knee supports and tried to take it easy, but I love to be active. I have tried lots of knee supports and for short periods they are great, but wearing them under clothing especially when skiing was not good. They would bunch up, fall down, twist. It was horrid.
I found Imbrace through social media, I looked at them and thought that is a lot of money to spend on a pair of leggings. I was worried they would just be another "thing" that promised lots and delivered little. But I read the reviews and I thought that give so many people had suffered similar issues to me, bought the leggings and then written good reviews, I didn't have anything to lose. I purchased a pair of the mens winter sports base layer and a pair of the discounted recovery leggings. I wore the base layer 6 out of 7 days skiing. My knees did not suffer, I felt supported, warm, and they just didn't move from the places they were meant to support. Geoff was super responsive when I had to return a pair, and he dealt with any queries almost immediately.
I don't know what it is about the base layer, but even after wearing them day after day, they still remained fresh, they remained fitting and they gave me great support. For me it is about confidence and these gave me tonnes of confidence. I do a lot of sport, I recently did the 3 peaks and I would have loved to have been wearing a pair of Imbrace leggings to help me, I will ensure that any significant challenges I take on in the near future will feature these leggings, they are as good as they seem and I am so glad that I found this product and will certainly be buying more pairs in the future.

Loved the support and warmth.

I love skiing but have recently suffered trauma on top of arthritis. The Imbrace base layer has really helped me feel warm and supported, and has definitely helped me to feel more confident on the slopes. However, there is only so much it can do, so manage expectations! That said, I still consider it worth having and to be money well spent. Recommended.

Bought a pair as a last resort for my severely arthritic and damaged knees. I was sceptical and to be honest didn't really expect them to help, but WOW - i've just had the best two day skiing in as long as I can remember. I've worn my side hinge brace supports over the top and they are actually more comfortable than before, but with the addition support of the Snow Sport Base Layer underneath. The high waist suits my body shape and I've actually found it a great addition.
Massive thanks to Geoff who actually ended up sending me three pairs to ensure I got the fit 'right'. I will be ordering another pair on my return from holiday.

Great leggings, comfortable but supportive. Gave me more confidence skiing.
Great customer service helping me get the right product.

Wore these legging on my recent ski trip. They’re really comfortable and make you feel supported, as they’re a snug fit, and they were warm but not over hot either…….. perfect !
