ABSTRACT:
A surgical orthopedic support garment designed for both utility and comfort by either sex includes front and back panels of non-elastic fabric material connected by flexible inserts to form a generally tubular configuration for ease in donning and removing and is provided with a fastenable crotch strap for securement after donning. Both panels are provided with permanent flexible stays to support the back and abdomen and the back panel is adapted to removably receive rigid stays for added support when needed. VELCRO tabs are attached to respective ends of the front panel and extend through keepers on corresponding ends of the back panel across the inserts for adjusting the tightness of fit without leaving loose or flapping ends and a zippered opening in the front panel provides flexibility in donning the garment. This garment is preferably made with no parts having a magnetic influence so as to avoid any possibility of intereference with a pacemaker or the like that might be in use by the wearer.
