The Four Axioms of Functional Bracing Back to top

An 'axiom' is a self-evident truth; a principle of science.

At Bledsoe, we've held to certain axioms about functional bracing.
Those principles have been designed into the Bledsoe Axiom.

 

On impact, carbon fiber fractures into sharp edges.
 

The no-catch hinge won't
dig into the ground during
a slide tackle.
 

The Ratchet Release
cannot 'pop' open by
accident nor on contact
with players or the ground.

AXIOM 1Functional braces must provide impact resistance.
The new Bledsoe Axiom is a special metallic alloy composite that will not deform from force. It will not shatter in contact sports. It is the strongest brace on the market today.

AXIOM 2A functional sports brace must function for sports.
The shell shouldn't break on contact. The clasps shouldn't release.
The hinge shouldn't catch. The brace should be light and low profile.
The Axiom is a sports brace, and it acts like it.

AXIOM 3Migration and rotation affect compliance.
The Axiom has an innovative new strap design that reduces migration and improves compliance.

AXIOM 4 • Minimize repair and maintenance expense.
Our goal is to reduce maintenance cost, patient hassle and provider time. Every part can be replaced by the customer, using tools provided. The unique Ratchet Release reduces wear on straps, adjusts easily and will not unclasp during sports.

The Axiom Custom Brace is a Problem Solver:
 • Shells will not break or deform on contact
 • Closures stay closed
 • Hinges won't snag
 • Parts don't easily wear out
 • Shells hold their position
 • The profile makes sense for athletes
 • Durable enough for contact and extreme sports

The Axiom is a better functional brace. And that is a self-evident truth.
