knne brace repair

I have a DonJoy Goldpoint knee brace I was fitted with in 1992 after knee surgery (ruptured ACL removed). The neoprene straps that wrap around the thigh and the calf are both severely worn - the neoprene is torn so therefore the straps don't hold well and the brace slips down during activity and has to be readjusted to stay in its proper position. I contacted DonJoy and they no longer make this brace or parts. Any ideas how I can get new straps? The brace has served me well and I would like to keep it.

The SiliposŪ Soft Sock is a two-layer sock carefully designed with a proprietary gel pad molded in between the two fabric layers at the sole to absorb and reduce friction, abrasion, shear forces, and moisture away from the foot.
