Bauerfeind Sports Supports are machine washable, but hand washing may help extend the life of the product.
Ensure any velcro tabs are secured to their straps, not hanging loose or attached to the knit, which can snag and cause runs in the fabric.
Machine wash in cold/cool water using the gentle or delicate cycle setting. Use liquid laundry detergent with no additives (no fabric softener, no bleach).
Lay your support flat to air dry, do not hang it to dry as it may stretch out
We do not recommend putting your Bauerfeind Supports in a dryer, this can compromise the knitted fabric.
Please wash your Bauerfeind Supports regularly to ensure proper function and retain the compression of the knitted fabric!

When hiking downhill, the increased forces on the knee can place extra strain on the joint and patellar tendon. The Outdoor Knee Support features an adjustable strap that allows you to customize the level of support as the load increases. This provides targeted relief, stabilizes the knee, and ensures the brace adapts perfectly to your individual needs and activity.
Hiking is more than just putting one foot in front of the other – it’s the passion of exploring nature, reaching peaks, and pushing your limits. But long trails, steep climbs, and especially downhill descents put extra strain on the knees. That’s where the Outdoor Knee Support with Merino Wool comes in.
The Omega Pad stabilizes the kneecap and distributes pressure to reduce strain. The compressive knit activates muscles and improves joint coordination, while the Downhill Relief Strap System provides extra support on descents to ease pressure on the patellar tendon and prevent overuse injuries.
The anatomical design ensures a perfect fit and natural freedom of movement. The low-profile construction and adjustable strap keep the brace secure without slipping. Made with merino wool and Core Yarn Technology, it regulates temperature, wicks moisture, and stays breathable for lasting comfort on every hike.
