 EVS - Frequently Asked Question (FAQ)

. About EVS

. EVS FAQ


Q. DO I NEED A CUSTOM FIT BRACE ?

A. No amount of custom molding will permit proper fit if a brace is too stiff. If the brace cannot conform to the changing muscles in your leg, it will only fit when the leg is in the same condition as when molded. The deviation between the moving leg and the brace can be considerable. If the brace design is too stiff, custom molding may not be the answer. We do not purchase custom made shoes. We buy them off-the-shelf. Modern technology allows us to fit the majority of people with off-the-shelf braces. Our experience has shown that more than 90% of patients can be fitted comfortably off-the-shelf.

Q. WHY DO I NEED A KNEE BRACE ?
A. Knee braces are meant to provide the user with a level of protection for both healthy & pre-injured knees. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most commonly injured knee ligament. The ACL controls how far forward the tibia moves in relation to the femur and if the tibia moves too far the ACL can tear. The ACL is also the first ligament that becomes tight when the knee is straight so if the knee is forced past this point, or hyperextended, the ACL can also become torn. The ACL is often injured during high action sports such as motocross. Many injuries can occur when athletes suffer direct blows, lateral impacts or hyperextension while not using protective knee braces.

Q. WHAT DOES A KNEE BRACE DO ?
A. Most knee braces can provide athletes with both functional and lateral support, in addition to frontal impact protection. With the use of hyperextension locking hinges knee braces can assist in decreasing the chances of ACL injuries. See "why do I need a knee brace"

Q. IS THERE ONE SIZE BRACE THAT FITS EVERYONE ?
A. NO......most EVS knee braces and protective gear is sized to insure athletes a more accurate custom fit while using a size range of XXS - XXXXL. Check sizing chart to assure proper fit and finding appropriate sizing.

Q. ARE EVS KNEE BRACES COVERED BY MY INSURANCE PLAN ?
A. Insurance companies reimburse for medical knee braces, which require a physician's prescription. EVS knee braces are designed as a piece of protective gear for injury prevention. Please contact your insurance provider along with your physician for detailed coverage information.

Q. HOW DO I KNOW WHAT SIZE I NEED ?
A. To insure proper fitment on EVS knee braces, circumference measurements should be taken directly against the skin with your leg straight. Use a soft tape measure if at all possible. If you do not have access to a soft tape measure, use a piece of string, rope or yarn and then measure that with a regular ruler or tape measure. See Measuring chart for detailed sizing & directions.

Q. WHAT DOES THE SB02 SHOULDER BRACE DO ?
A. Our shoulder brace is designed to add compression to the shoulder joint by grabbing your bi-cep and pulling it up and into the rotator cuff. There are no hard parts (plastic or aluminum) and in fact, the brace is not intended to protect against impact. However, as anyone with a troubled shoulder will agree, it is the small jolts & jiggles that can cause the greatest amount of discomfort. Our shoulder brace is a must have item for athletes with shoulder issues.

Q. DOES EVS SPONSOR RIDERS ?
A. Yes, EVS has an active rider support program that reviews thousands of resumes each year. Our next sponsorship season starts Jan. 1, 2003, with all resumes being due no later than Nov. 30th 2002. All EVS Riders are required to have at least one EVS logo sticker on their bike and helmet at all times.

Q. WHAT DOES EVS LOOK FOR IN A SPONSORED RIDER ?
A. EVS looks for athletes who have a true passion for their sport. We are looking for riders that will represent EVS with class and style. Attitude, Effort and Loyalty are much more important than year end results.

Q. WHAT SHOULD I LOOK FOR IN AN ANKLE BRACE ?
A. Ankle supports and braces are available in many types. The simplest supports are the elastic wraps, a neoprene wrap or pull on sleeve like the AS06 & AS14. These provide compression and warmth, and in some cases permit the athlete to walk without crutches for very mild sprains. More elaborate ankle supports with plates to add stiffness are also available. Like the AB04, lace-up type ankle supports with rigid supports are great for mild to severe sprains. Each of the EVS braces are made to wear while enjoying your sports & activities.

Q. IS THE EVS BALLISTIC JERSEY MEANT TO BE WORN UNDER OR OVER YOU JERSEY ?
A. Our Ballistic Jersey can be worn both under your riding jersey as well as on top. This question is better answered by each individual owner as comfort plays a huge factor. No matter which way you wear it, you will have the ultimate in upper body protection.

Q. CAN I GET REPLACEMENT PARTS & ACCESSORIES FOR EVS KNEE BRACES ?
A. Yes, replacement parts are available for many of the EVS knee braces. The most common accessories like knee cups and strap extensions can be purchased directly from EVS or your local dealer.

Q. CAN I USE MY BRACES IN THE WATER ?
A. Yes, all EVS braces are non-corrosive and will function in most water application. If you wish to use our products in salt water, be sure to rinse the brace and its components after each us to remove any salt or debris that may remain.

Q. HOW DO I CARE FOR MAY EVS PRODUCTS ?
A. All EVS products can stand up to good washing but you may want to check with the manufacturer of your washing machine. Some EVS products have hardware in them that could damage your washing machine. If you are unsure, simply spray the product down with a milt cleaner and hose it off outside.
