ABSTRACT:
A soft restraint to restrain a prisoner's legs together and in a position behind the prisoner's buttocks to prevent the prisoner from kicking and resisting. The restraint is light weight, flexible, and compact enough to carry in a pants or jacket pocket. The restraint consists of an adjustable waist belt secured around the prisoner's waist with a quick release buckle. The waist belt is attached to an ankle belt which is to be placed around the prisoner's ankles and tightened by pulling the belt through a one way buckle. The feet are then pulled up to the rear of the waist belt by pulling the leg to waist strap through an upper one way buckle. The end of the leg to waist strap is then attached back to the ankle belt by clipping it to a metal ring on the ankle belt. This prevents injuries to the prisoner's wrists due to not having the feet connected to the handcuffs worn by the prisoner. The restraint fits all sizes of waists and ankles.
