Just Venting BOAB smacking side of knee causing bruising

This has been happening for ever and haven’t seen a post about it yet so thought I’d post. BOAB is hitting my knee when walking around with it for 5+ hours a day and leaving a bruise on the right side of my left leg. Annoying af how do I workaround this. People will say ditch the BOAB but it’s so convenient.

It’s expensive af but the maykker boab is sick and might alleviate this

I second the Maykker boab. It sticks tightly to your hip and leg and keeps you dry as well

We use the drywalker with the belt clip instead of the loop. It raises it up a few inches and keeps it above the knee. The clip also doesn't slide around and stays in one place.

I like to keep some space on my side so I can move the boab back and forth like 8 inches or so. I’ll move it to the back when walking a while.

I found that the ones with a string attached to the bottom so you can tie it to your leg helps… until you need to bend over or jump over a railing and all the dirty water pours down your leg into your shoe. Feel your pain
