Ever since I have known my husband, he has always been very active and involved in sports. He enjoys playing football and handball and can often be seen tossing a ball around with our sons, either in front of the house or at our local park. Unfortunately, as he is getting older, he is noticing that old injuries from when he was in the military are affecting his performance when it comes to sports and physical activity. This is especially true with his right knee that regularly gives him pain and discomfort.
He usually wears an ACE™ Brand Bandage when he knows that he is going to be using that injured knee a lot, but he always complains about the pesky metal clips that keeps it fastened. Also, he is constantly adjusting it to make sure that he gets the support needed. When I told him that the NEW ACE™ Brand Elastic Bandage features the improved ACE™ Brand Clip and stays fastened without the old metal clips, he was ecstatic!
As I watched him stretching and preparing to play football with the kids in the park, I could tell that he was a lot more confident about his performance. His ACE™ Brand Elastic Bandage stayed securely in place and provided him with the support and compression that he needed for his injured knee. The ACE™ Brand Clip stayed fastened and he wasn’t worried about snagging the old metal clips on his clothes. Additionally, he was able to easily adjust it for comfort and additional support.
ACE™ Brand has been a trusted brand in our home for years and, thanks to the new and innovative fastener on their ACE™ Brand Elastic Bandage, my husband can now add another layer of confidence to his overall physical performance. I also love that the bandage retains its elasticity even after repeated usage and washings in the machine. I can’t tell you how much money that will save us from having to buy new bandages every few weeks since my husband wears them on a daily basis.
Check out this series of videos featuring “Arthur, ACE™ Brand Motivational Sportsgent” talking about how ACE™ Brand has “Fixed the Clip!”
ACE™ Brand offers a complete line of elastic compression bandages, hot and cold therapy products, and knee, ankle, elbow, wrist and back braces, wraps and supports. I’m so happy that my husband can now be more comfortable and secure when he is being active with our boys. He can now truly give 100% and be confident that he will be able to keep up with them!

I need to get this for my brother. He is always hurting something when he plays baseball. This would be perfect for those sprains and such. Thanks for sharing this with us.
When I was younger I wrestled, so my knees now are not the greatest. It is really hard to find something that breaths and bends with me. I should look into the ACE brand. Thanks for sharing:)
Both my son and my husband need knee support when they play as well. This ACE wrap looks like it has a great deal of support while still allowing them mobility. I’ll tell them about it.
I have to get wrist splints like these, I wonder if they make these also. They look very sturdy!
Perfect timing. I strained my knee just the other day and was talking to my wife about needing some type of brace next time we hit the gym.
We love Ace products! About a year ago I twisted my ankle, and it hasn’t been the same since! Makes doing things like photographing weddings pretty painful 🙁
I have one on right now. Training for a marathon is a bit hard on the body and ACE is helping me to get there!
I sprained my right ankle pretty badly, so It’s a little bit weaker. I use ACE bandages though when it starts acting up and I need the extra support.
My husband is the same way. He needs that extra support for his knees, so he always goes for being safer with ace bandage support.
I occasionally have knee pain when I’m running.. I wonder if this would help. Otherwise, I don’t really have any point. On the other hand, my husband… he has knee pain and some hip pain that I’m sure is caused from his knee. Maybe he should look into this!
I’m dealing w a wrist injury.. UGH! I constantly have it wrapped and iced. Probably should go to the dr.
Oh the joys of getting older!! lol NOT. Apparently I injured my back somehow and now am struggling through sciatic nerve pain … wasn’t cool when someone’s response to that was “ohhhhh, you’re so young for that!” Well, I guess it IS cool that they thought of me as young since things like that surely don’t make me feel it!! That looks like a really nice bandage. It’s great to find awesome products that do help with these kinds of things.
I had a hip replacement as a young adult. Since then, I am limited as to what I can and can’t do. Even though I have had the replacement, I am still very, very active. Right now I am dealing with some foot issues.
I used to keep Ace Bandages in business! I used them often when I had hamstring problems when I was a high school and college runner.
Glad this is helpful. Interesting product. My husband would be curious about this.
Knee injuries are the worst. My BF suffers from a knee injury. I will have to let him know about this
Ace Bandages rock.Son uses them on his knee when he marches for support.
unfortunately my reasons for not thinking I can perform are not injury related but lazy and over eating related.. not good.
Always a reputable brand. They had these when I ran track in high school!
My whole family has used Ace for so many sports. They are the best.
I use Ace bandages on my knees, I couldn’t get through my workouts without them!
My husband is a huge fan of ACE brand. He uses the knee braces, especially when he has to do heavy lifting in the warehouse.
I need to tell my husband about this. He has an injury on his leg that bothers him when he drives for long distances, and I am sure this would help with that.
I have had a few serious ankle injuries that I needed to use an ace wrap for. They also work great to wrap ice in place for 20 minutes.
This is too ironic LOL. I just went out to get one of these today for my knee when I had an accident
Ace has been around as long as I can remember. My mom and grandma used their bandages. I haven’t sustained any injuries in sports but hubby has done enough for both of us. 😉
You know I haven’t seen these I had a knee injury and have to wear a really big and bulky brace on my knee something like this would seem so much more flexible.
We always use ACE for the boys sports! My son has a bone spur in his foot and ace makes it feel okay while playing football!
My hubs has an injured knee from a knee surgery that he had years ago. He’s constantly wrapping it in something, but I didn’t know ACE made a bandage like this! I’ll have to get him one to see if it stays in place for his work day.
My dad also uses the Ace brand. I really need to get both of my knees checked out but I should use something like this in the meantime.
Oh I could definitely use this. A couple years ago I tore my MCL and a few other things in my knee. It just hasn’t been the same since. Something to make it feel a little more stable might encourage me to do more activities with it.
My hubby suffers from knee pain and uses another brand which wasn’t helping much. Will give ACE a try! Thanks for the great review!
