ABSTRACT:
An upstanding rigid vertical brace bar constructed so as to be adjustable in length is provided and includes upper and lower end oppositely directed generally horizontal terminal end portions. The brace bar is adapted to extend downwardly behind the calf portion of the leg of the wearer and the upper horizontally directed terminal end portion is adapted to underlie the thigh portion of the leg of the wearer, the brace bar and upper terminal end portion each including an adjustable length strap member for clamping about the associated leg portion of the wearer. The lower horizontally directed terminal end portion supports a shoe cradle therefrom for adjustable angular displacement about an upstanding axis and releasable securement in adjusted rotated position. The shoe cradle is constructed so as to snugly receive and embrace a foot worn shoe of the user and the cradle also includes strap structure for strappingly securing the shoe of the wearer in the cradle. Further, the juncture between the upper end of the brace bar and the adjacent end of the upper horizontal terminal end portion includes a transverse enlargement whereby the posterior portion of the knee of the user and adjacent leg surfaces may be cushioned.
