Frequently Asked Questions]
Q:Should I wear the supporter over tights? (30s, female, marathoner)
A:Zamst Knee Supporter is basically designed to be worn on bare skin. It is fine to wear it over tights, but depending on the material of the tights, the supporter may slip off. If this happens, the intended effect will not be achieved, so please try it beforehand if possible.
Q: Is it suitable for preventing knee injuries while snowboarding? (20s, female, snowboarder)
A:If you have never had an injury and are wearing a supporter as a preventive measure, we recommend the "ZK-3" which holds the entire knee and prevents lateral (sideways) wobble. Winter sports often damage the zinc band of the knee, so the ZK series is recommended.
Q, I suffered from iliotibial ligamentitis about 6 months ago. What is the best way to prevent recurrence? (30s, male, marathoner)

A, Iliotibial ligamentitis itself is mainly caused by overuse (excessive running), so to prevent recurrence, it is necessary to limit movement that places a burden on it. We recommend the RK-1, which uses straps to control the movement of the knee to twist inward. Supporters reduce the strain on the knee but do not address the underlying cause. Since iliotibial ligamentitis can be caused by a variety of factors, including running surface, shoes, form, and balance from the ankle to the hip joint, it is recommended that you review these factors and take care of your body by stretching before and after exercise, icing after exercise, and so on.
