Mobius X8 knee braces restrictive at calf area

Has anyone had any issues with the Mobius x8 braces being pretty restrictive at the calf area ? I find that the braces restrict my leg movement so when I go to sitting to then have my foot with toes down on the pegs I’m really stretching to achieve this movement.

These braces are great but unfortunately I think these just don’t suit my legs

Yes got rid of mine for the same reason.

What did you change to ? 

I think I’ve always had this issue but it’s highlighted even more after recovering from a ACL reconstruction so my leg isn’t as flexible then the knee braces make it worse and slower

I might be failing my reading comprehension here. I find this can happen sometimes when I put my lowest knee brace strap on with my toe pointed down with the calf relaxed. If I lift my foot up it will flex my calf then I strap up the number 3 strap and this alleviates the issue for me.

I gave up on braces all together, man thighs and being tall, just could never find a pair that didn't make my feet hang off the front of the pegs.

Stop bragging about your huge calves in a roundabout way, bros.
