ABSTRACT:
A knee brace is disclosed including an elastic sleeve configured to snugly embrace the user's knee region. The sleeve is provided with an opening in the front for the patella. A drawstring slidable in a two-way stretch elastic casing stitched to the margin of the opening facilitates adjustment of the circumference of the opening to snugly engage patellas of different sizes and/or shapes. Lateral pads disposed on either side of the patella opening and a vertical pad disposed above the opening are also included. Adjustable fasteners between the pads and the sleeve interior permit the horizontal spacing between the lateral pads and the center of the kneecap opening and the vertical spacing between the upper pad and the center of the kneecap opening to be varied to accommodate different sized patellas.
