    Default Product Testing for Christie

    Attachment 27637

    Hiked today for the first time in my new Christie-recommended knee straps and they felt good on these old knees. I think I'm going to like them!

    YAY!! So glad you like them. I love mine. I was a little skeptical but after reading the reviews I thought I would give them a try since they weren't expensive. I was thoroughly impressed. I got hot pink!!

    Today is the real test, a bike ride. Biking always bugs my knees more than hiking.

    They are really inexpensive on Amazon. They are more expensive on the brands website. LOL. Plus I have Prime so free shipping.
