Feasibility was assessed via eligibility, enrollment, recruitment, dropouts, adverse events, and adherence (temperature sensor). Acceptability was assessed via treatment satisfaction (100-point scale) and explored in semistructured interviews and analyzed thematically. Secondary outcomes included 6-week change in Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia, and hop performance.\n                    <jats:italic>\n                      <jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>\n                      :\n                    <\/jats:italic>\n                    Of 48 participants screened, 24 (50%) were eligible and 21 (88%) enrolled over 6 months (52% male, mean age 31 [6]\u00a0y, n\u2009=\u200914 brace, n\u2009=\u20097 control). One control participant was lost to follow-up (5% dropout). In the brace group, there were 2 serious and 3 minor unrelated adverse events, and 6 minor skin-related events; the control group had 2 minor events. Brace adherence averaged \u22651\u00a0hour per day on 43% of days (participant range 0%\u201378%). For acceptability, satisfaction was rated 70\/100 (19). Fourteen interviews identified themes of perceived effectiveness (eg,\u00a0improved confidence, pain relief), practical challenges to brace wear (eg,\u00a0fit, clothing compatibility), and integration into daily life (eg,\u00a0ease of use, social perceptions). The brace showed potential for worthwhile treatment effects for hop performance, and most Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score subscales, but not for kinesiophobia.\n                    <jats:italic>\n                      <jats:bold>Conclusions<\/jats:bold>\n                      :\n                    <\/jats:italic>\n                    A full-scale randomized controlled trial is feasible, as recruitment and retention targets were met, although adherence requires refinement.
