Which points count for you in basketball?

Stand safely with strong ankles

Stabilise joints and control fast movements safely.

Dribble, block or slam dunk – no matter what your next move on the court is, stability and control are what count in basketball. You need a secure standing position to ensure your success at throwing precisely. Your ankles are exposed to high loads thanks to fast and abrupt changes in direction. Joints must be protected for optimum performance.

Avoid twisting your ankle with our ankle support

The Sports Ankle Support stabilises your ankles with an innovating taping belt and protect you from kinking, hyperextending or lateral twisting. You’re optimally protected in heavy start-stop situations and while landing after intense jumps. Thus, you minimise the risk of buckling at high loads and of injury to yourself. At the same time, the sports braces stimulate your muscles and fascia. Your practice will improve, and you’ll have your head clear for your next move. What are you waiting for? Say farewell to ankle injuries! You’re well protected with the Sports Ankle Supports – during training and at game time.

3D Airknit Technology
Compression knit as light as air adapts perfectly to your body’s profile, supports the wicking of sweat and prevents heat build-up.

Taping Technology
Adjustable, flat looped strap provides targeted support and flexibilty to ensure effective stabilisation, reducing risk of injury especially for start-stop situations and intense jumps.

Maximum knee protection

Relieve knee joints and increase your court time.

Your knees rack up points for you during basketball with every movement: They provide support during explosive drives, absorb high jumps and change direction quickly. This puts extreme strain on the knee joints. That’s why the strong protection afforded by a sports brace is particularly important. That’s the only way to achieve your best performance on the court.

The Sports Knee Support controls your movements and safely guides your knee joints by means of slight compression. You’ll feel the relief effect – particularly during longer practice sessions. You can train longer discomfort-free thanks to low-level pressure on your kneecap. At the same time, this durable knee brace massages your ligaments, tendons, muscles and connective tissue with every movement you make by way of incorporated pads. This in turn positively affects sensorimotor function. This intense depth perception sends you noticeable feedback, which in turn counteracts stress and reduces the risk of injury. In addition, pain related to overloading abates faster.

That way you’re ready for your best game on the court – true to the motto: “Shoot it like Dirk!”

3D Airknit Technology
Compression knit as light as air adapts perfectly to your body’s profile, supports the wicking of sweat and prevents heat build-up.

Omega Pad
Precise embedding and guiding of your kneecap through an integrated, innovative elasticated pad ensuring optimal distribution of power through the knee joint.

Patella Pad
Pad with four nubbed pressure points that relieve the patellar tendon insertion, guideing and supporting the tendon during loading as well as stimulating the area around the patellar tendon.

Release your maximum performance

Activate muscles and play with long-lasting power.

Higher, farther, faster – it’s not just NBA stars like Dirk Nowitzki who need maximum power on court for explosive moves. You also want to achieve your best performance. Jumping throws, dribbling and sprints in basketball require the perfect interaction of your musculoskeletal system. That way your arms and legs always deliver the best performance- and for the long run.

Bauerfeind sports products improve your muscle work with noticeable compression. Highly elastic knit releases targeted pressure that stimulates circulation. This in turn improves oxygen transport to stressed muscles and arm and leg joints. You’ll feel immediate results on the basketball court. You’re efficient longer and gain more power in your arm and leg muscles. This increases your stamina and performance.

On top of that, your muscles will warm up faster due to increased circulation, which leaves them better protected from injury for longer in any gaming situation.

Get your muscles ready – for your explosive move to the top of basketball Olympus!

Targeted Compression Zones
Innovative taping and muscle building zone with zone-specific compression supports the muscles in the surrounding area. Taping zone improves proprioception - the sense of body awareness and stability.

Grip Technology
Integrated, skin-friendly silicone band on the upper edging for secure fit and precision with every movement.

Precise moves

Improved oxygenation in muscles for accurate throws.

In basketball, you score with precision. To achieve perfect timing at the right moment, stamina and power count for the entire length of the game. You have to remain fit and focused until the end if you want the last steal to be yours and in order to score with precision. Plays, dribbling and rapid changes in direction require a lot of your body.

Give your arms extra power with our arm sleeves

Your musculoskeletal system in the arms, legs and ankles is exposed to high loads. Precise throws are almost impossible in cases of fatigue. Arms feel limp and cramps and sore muscles follow. Your muscles and fascia must be supplied with sufficient oxygen to avoid this and to increase your throw rate.

Bauerfeind Compression Line sports products support this. They increase circulation with targeted pressure and thus transport more oxygen to stressed muscles. Muscles are better supplied, tire slower and regenerate faster. You play longer with powerful precision.

Sports insoles for stable feet

In addition, Insoles Ball & Racket sports insoles ensure a stable foot and natural rolling movements. This ensures powerful jumps and a secure standing position all the way to the last minute of the game. You gain improved stability with fast stops and turns, which increases your precision during fast steals. Sensomotoric spots simultaneously stimulate your foot muscles and relieve stress.

This blocks fatigue symptoms and your throw rate is a direct hit!

Targeted Compression Zones
Innovative taping and muscle building zone with zone-specific compression supports the muscles in the surrounding area. Taping zone improves proprioception - the sense of body awareness and stability.

Weightflex Technology
Unique, patented dual-component core with an innovative X-shaped module supports the arch of the foot and better controls the foot’s heel-to-toe movement.

Fear of kinking?

In basketball, quick changes in direction and landing after rebounds or throws quickly cause overload in joints and ligaments. The result: Ankles become unstable and feet kink. Ligaments often hyperextend during inward or outward lateral twisting. Torn ligaments can be one result.

A sports brace like the Sports Ankle Support prevents the upper ankle from making lateral movements and protects you from kinking while on the basketball court.

Protects against kinking
Prevents hyperextension
Prevents lateral twisting
Ensures better body awareness
