Pants for after knee surgery
After knee surgery, getting dressed can be one of the hardest parts of the day. A brace, a bulky dressing or a cast will not fit through a normal pant leg, and bending the knee to pull pants on may not be an option for a while.
Shop the Kintsugi Jogger ↓Open the leg instead of pulling it on
The Kintsugi Jogger has a zipper that runs the full length of each leg. Unzip it, lay the pants around the leg, and zip it closed over the brace or dressing. You can open it again later for a dressing change, an ice pack or a check-up without taking the pants off.
There is room through the knee for a hinged brace, and the four-way stretch fabric moves with you on crutches, in physical therapy and on the couch. Zipped up, it looks like a regular jogger, so you can wear it out of the house too.
Details
Body fabric is 90% nylon and 10% elastane, with Cordura and Dyneema trim. Men's and women's cuts, Black and Navy, sizes S to XXL. $128 with free U.S. shipping, and U.S. shoppers can pay with an HSA or FSA card through Flex.
Follow your surgical team's instructions about dressing and movement. The jogger is clothing, not a medical device.
See the Kintsugi Jogger product page for the full size chart, fabric and care details.
Questions
- Will it fit over a knee brace?
- The leg unzips fully, so you can close it around most knee braces. If your brace is bulky, size up and check the size chart for thigh and knee measurements.
- Do I have to bend my knee to put them on?
- No. With the leg unzipped you can wrap the pants around a straight leg and zip them closed.
- What sizes and colors does the Kintsugi Jogger come in?
- Men's and women's cuts in Black and Navy, sizes S to XXL. Choose by waist measurement; if you are between sizes and wear a socket or brace, size up.
- What if the size is wrong?
- Exchanges are free. Returns are accepted within 30 days on unworn items with tags; we deduct $10 from U.S. refunds for the return label.
