DonJoy or Asterisk?
I'm looking at getting the pair, but I am wondering how these compare to the DonJoy Armor Knee Brace? I know the Asterisk are a little bit cheaper, but I have instability in both knees and am looking for support and injury prevention. I'm wanting the best for my money.

After 4 knee surgeries, I have both the DonJoy and Asterisk Cells (original version). The Asterisk is far superior. Even with the custom fit of the titanium DonJoy, I had a lot of problems with slippage. Not so with the Asterisks (Asteri?). I have been skiing and touring on the Asterisks for over 5 years and they provide sold protection from twisting. They are comfortable (they are hot, but not too bad) and solid. The buckle system on the original Asterisk are a pain in the butt to snap on and off, but they do not slip once tightened. The new Ultra Cells have a Boa tightening system, which is probably a lot better.
