BUILT ON REAL WORLD FEEDBACK
Great service, great product
I ski a lot and have a home in the Alps. Unfortunately, I had two knee replacements in 2023, then broke my leg in 2024 and had the plate removed in January this year.
The Imbrace ski leggings give a light support that gives me confidence. Prior to my knee op I had been using braces, but with Imbrace I find I no longer need them.

What a find!
I was very sceptical of the suggested benefits but thought I’d take a chance, and I couldn’t have been more wrong. After five days skiing in Italy I had little, if any, pain in my knees or hips, and was always ready for the next day’s skiing. The quality is excellent and the compression has held its shape well.
If you have knee or hip problems, I would highly recommend these.

Believe the reviews!
I’ve tried lots of knee supports over the years and wearing them under ski clothing was never comfortable. I was sceptical Imbrace would be any different — but I was wrong.
My knees felt supported, warm, and fatigue-free day after day. They didn’t move from where they were meant to support, even when skiing hard. These give real confidence on the slopes, and I’ll be buying more pairs.

Ski sport under pants
I have used individual knee braces in the past, but I much prefer this solution.
Used in sub-15°C conditions with no issues. They gave me great support through my back, hips and knees and will be my preferred option going forward.
