do you have recommendations for specific brands and models?

I have damaged (not fully torn) my ACL and possibly patella and MCL through a variety of sports over the years. I have not had surgery (although I will at some point) as my knees recovered each time and I don't experience any serious problem with them. I am still active in sport and I want to buy a good hinged knee brace for sports such as skiing, snowboarding and basketball. There are decent looking USD100 and below ones but I'm wondering if these are adequate to prevent further injury. i hope to buy one that provides very strong support but allowing dynamic mobility at the same time.
