So my surgeons given me the ok to start skiing in a few weeks after 6 months of rehab on a patellar graft for my ACL. What im wondering is which brace is preffered by others who have been in my situation. My surgeon recommended the defiance from Donjoy, and I have been looking at the Defiance lll as well as the CTI Custom. I saw numerous different opinions on each brace in the various threads found on here. I'm wondering pros/cons and major differences between each brace and any additional info that may help. +k and mad props for anyone who can help!

I can't really speak for others, but donjoys are great. Never had any problems with them

If I'm not mistaken, both are custom fit for you leg, and both are designed to limit movement of the leg in directions that could cause damage. I think either will be fine, as long as it's fit properly.
When you go in for your fitting, take your boots in with you to make sure there aren't any clearance issues. I had to have mine adjusted a little after the fact, and it still bumps up against my liners.
I have a CTI.
