Now that you’re all geared up and ready to go, you’ll need to know how to take care of it. Bauerfeind’s knit products must be washed regularly to ensure the strength of the knit and the seams. Regular washing will help to counteract stretching. For light use, washing every two to three uses is ideal. For heavy use more frequent washes may be required.

Don't Settle for Cheap, Stinky Neoprene... Bauerfeind Knit is Soft, Breathable and Machine-washable

When it comes to choosing a brace or support there are many factors to consider: Quality, comfort and medical-grade compression to name a few, but often overlooked is a product’s washability. Believe it or not, there are people wearing braces and supports day in and day out without the option to keep them clean!

Many braces on the market are made of neoprene, a synthetic material used to make wetsuits. Neoprene doesn’t “breathe” and traps moisture, especially sweat, which leads to a breeding ground for bacteria.

Bauerfeind products are different because they’re made of a high-quality knitted material. Knitted braces are more durable, moisture-wicking and can be easily washed in a regular washing machine.
