“A3” stands for Anti, Arthros, Algos, which means "against joint pain" in Latin. In cases of osteoarthritis, it is important to manage pain while also mobilizing the knee to slow the progress of the disease. The GenuTrain A3 has proven to be a valuable aid being medical effective through targeted support and relief.
The GenuTrain A3 knee OA brace is designed to help manage chronic or degenerative knee pain, as commonly experienced with osteoarthritis, and mobilize the knee. It is also beneficial for injuries or to relieve pain on the inside of the knee.
Stabilizes and Stimulates
GenuTrain A3’s medical-grade compression knit is made to conform to the knee's natural shape to provide stability with maximum freedom of movement.
A star-shaped viscoelastic pad with stimulating massage nubs relieves common pain areas associated with osteoarthritis on the inside of the knee. The new-and-improved massage pad features extra effective zones with a second component to reduce inflammation, relieve pressure and accelerate the healing process, the GenuTrain A3 is a premium knee brace for arthritis, with a study* showing that it more than doubles the pain-free walking distance in users. Apart from the massage elements, this flexible pad has embedded notches to ensure a secure fit even when the knee is bent.
The silicone dots on the inside of the upper edge of the knit keep the GenuTrain A3 securely in place during everyday activities or therapeutic exercises.
Ease of Use
Donning and doffing aids integrated into the stays, combined with the stretchy knitted fabric with an extra expansion zone in the calf area, make it easier to put the brace on and take it off with minimal effort. To put it on, simply slide the knee brace up your leg until its star-shaped patellar pad perfectly surrounds the kneecap.
Comfortable and Durable
GenuTrain A3’s knitted fabric is breathable and moisture-wicking. You won’t find a more comfortable brace. The knit is extra stretchy and machine-washable in the gentle cycle, which helps maintain its elasticity, durability and original fit.
Sizing
Now available in 7 sizes for precision fit. Please measure your thigh 5 ½ inches (14cm) above the middle of the knee and the narrowest part below the knee. Please use the size chart below to measure correctly and determine your size.

lifesaving
female/ 73 yrs old arthritic knee/headed toward knee replacement surgery...not currently a good idea in Covid environment. Excruciating pain at times now rare while walking with this brace. SO worth the price as over the counter cheapies did nothing and always in need of adjustment. It's so comfortable to wear I have to remind self to take it off before sleeping/lol.....it also seems to be therapeutic as knee is better behaved while not wearing/after wearing for days.....highly recommend.........

By far the best brace out there for arthritis.
By far the best brace out there for arthritis. I wear it to play basketball in, do my weight exercise machines and cardio machines and have no pain when wearing this. I have one that i wear daily for walking and other daily things. Really works for me. Well worth the cost. I wear it for my right knee. Just make sure you size right. I have severe arthritis in that knee and this is the only thing that seems to help and allows me to do my daily things I enjoy.

Outstanding product
Long ago, I played volleyball for 10 years, finally having knee surgery for torn ligaments and meniscus. This was at a time when arthroscopy was new, When severe arthritis recently set in, I turned to a Bauerfeind purely by accident. It is my new best friend. The stability and confidence in gives me has made a significant improvement in my quality of life. Indeed, am getting a newer model right now. I photograph volleyball these days, and at least 1/2 of the UCLA men's team wear Bauerfeind. IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not wear your brace going through airport security, as it WILL set off alarms. If you are presently "thinking" of purchasing one, stop thinking, start buying. Best investment ever.

Accelerates Healing
Had a bad fall while playing ice hockey. Used off-the-shelf knee brace for a week, which did nothing to improve my pain. Bought a hinged brace from a sports store, which did a decent job, but stopped improving after about another week. MRI showed medial meniscus tear. I bought the BauerFeind A3, as it was recommended for medial meniscus tear. Only 3 days later, and my knee feels like it's almost healed. I can actually do 1 legged squats with the brace on. Yes, it's expensive, but it's also the best.

So comfortable
I cannot say enough about this product. This is the second supportI have had . The first being the Genutrain S. this works well under slacks and provides good support. It feels so good to be pain free ! And customer service is outstanding. I cannot thank them enough for their help!

A3
The most comfortable and strong knee brace support ever. It allowed me to continue with the sports I enjoy, jiu jitsu and golf, I have no Acl in both knees and this brace allowed to do both without having to do surgeries, it also helped in reducing the arthritis pain.

Genuine knee help!
I'm thrilled with this brace. My knees both had arthroscopic surgery 10 years ago, and were re-injured 6 months ago. I ordered the A3, as one knee sustained medial meniscus damage. Needed to speak with the company's physical therapist, as I'm between sizes and had a question customer services wasn't sure about, and Erin the PT is knowledgeable and helpful. Not only did the brace immediately help me walk with much less pain & more stability; the realignment with just a few days' use has helped me do simple walking around the house and stairs with less pain for short periods even when I'm NOT wearing the brace. Now I only wish the product was in stock in the right size for my other knee! BTW, Bauerfeind was recommended to me by a nurse who wears one. I've tried 6 or 7 different knee supports over the years. This one's well worth the investment.

LOVE THIS SUPPORT
I have had knee pain for the past 3 years, including surgery. I have not been able to run or do plyometrics during this time. I just recently got my GenuTrain A3 and went on a 3 mile run and did yoga pain free!!! I am a believer and will use this everytime I work out! :-) It's comfortable, doesn't slip, reduces shock and pain, and isn't hot or sweaty. Great product!
