ATHLETIC PANTS WITH INTEGRAL KNEE SUPPORT

摘要

An athletic pant that includes an area of compressive fabric disposed in a position on either pant leg that will surround the athlete's knee when the pants are worn. The area of compressive fabric in each pant leg also includes a pair of pockets positioned to lie on either side of the athlete's knee. The pockets completely enclose a support that aids in restricting lateral movement of the athlete's knee. The athletic pants may extend to the athlete's mid-calf region or to the ankle. The pants further include at least one cinch strap that is operable to reduce the diameter of the pant legs in the vicinity of the athlete's knee, thereby improving the fit of the pant for the athlete.
