ABSTRACT:
A protective padding for prevention of human inner leg skin irritation is provided in a padded leg guard. The guard is formed in an I-shaped fabric panel having two outer layers of soft, non-abrasive material with one inner layer of cotton batting and one of flexible foam. Two rectangular horizontal panels connected by one vertical rectangular panel form the I-shape. The top horizontal panel is sized for attachment around the lower human thigh with the bottom horizontal panel sized slightly smaller for attachment around a human ankle. The vertical panel is sized in length for proper positioning of the top and bottom horizontal panels, and the width is structured for coverage of the inner calf. Adjustable attachments are provided by hook-and-loop fasteners which are positioned on the distal edges of the horizontal panels.
