ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing support garments for human extremities, and the garments so produced. A support garment form is cut from a sheet of warp-knit power fabric, the fabric having a lengthwise (machine) dimension of greatest stretch and power, and a filling dimension (the cross-machine direction) in which the stretch is incidental (i.e., about 250%/80% or at least 2/1) and the sheet being orientated during cutting so that the lengthwise dimension of the sheet extends circumferentially in the final garment produced. The edges of the garment formed are seamed to produce the final support garment, the seam extending along the dimension of elongation of the extremity on which the support garment fits. The garment is preferably dimensioned so that the compression provided by the garment is greatest at the portion of the garment disposed most remote from the human torso along the human extremity on which it is disposed, the compression continuously gradually decreasing from the most remote portion of the extremity toward the torso. Tricot and raschel warp-knit power fabrics are preferred.
