An orthopedic appliance includes a pad member adapted to hold the appliance onto a limb, such as a human leg or arm, which pad is readily removable from the appliance and easily installed on it. In a highly preferred structure the pad has fastened to it a plurality of channel or similar members adapted to hold it to brace portions of the orthopedic device in proper position when the pad is laced or otherwise fastened about the limb. Yet, although the pad can be removed readily for washing it will not fall off the appliance, even when the orthopedic device is not held to the limb. Also, it may be readily reinstalled on the appliance without the need for snapping, tying or similarly fastening it into place on the appliance parts.
