Hi . I am getting ready to oder my Pod knee braces for motorcycle riding . Adventure riding. Question and clarification of where to measure circumference around knee. I normally measure circumference around the center of my knee cap. You video states to measure just below the patella ( bottom of knee cap ). Is this correct? You are saying this is the most important of two measurements?
Hey mate, If you're measuring with a generic soft tape measure you would be best to get your circumference measurement just below the kneecap with your leg straight and bearing weight, for further information see this chart made by Pod podactive.com/sizing-guide/ 👌🏼
OK, I'm gonna try a pair. I have huge quads, but the size chart from my knee circumference says I'm a Large... We'll see how well that adaptive thigh does. The Asterisk and Leatt C-frames did not fit at the thigh. Hopefully this will work better.
Wanted to get on with these but mine are just so uncomfortable for me after a year of trying, I’m selling them :( They pinch my calves so much no matter how I do them up. I think it’s the strap material - quite a few friends have moved to mobius braces for various reasons.. but after feeling the straps on those I will give them a try. They’re neoprene and much softer.. so fingers crossed they resolve my issue. Other than that these feel great quality - just don’t seem to work for me, which is a crying shame
Just ordered my set last night. Stoked to get them fitted.
Follow up to earlier question. If I also measure the knee width, should I wear my high knee socks and sleeve before taking measurement?

Fingers crossed the Pods will work for you, there are a lot of adjustable features on these braces 👌🏼
How did they work for you? I have big quads as well and the size chart is showing me to be the “xl/2xl”
Good vid. Thanks
Thank you!

Pod braces just came out with a new version - K8 3.0 - few new improvements.
