PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a knee supporter which effectively and easily supports the circumference of the patella. SOLUTION: The knee supporter 1 is formed by providing a cylindrical knit fabric 2 having stretchability with a resin impregnation section 3 as a low stretching section. The resin impregnation section 3 is penetrated with, for example, a silicon resin from the front side to the rear side of the stretchable fabric 2. The resin impregnation section 3 has resin impregnation sections 3a end 3b which come into contact with the knee so as to enclose the patella, a resin impregnation section 3d which tightens the knee from the resin impregnation section 3a existing at the thigh downward toward the rear side of the knee joint and a resin impregnation section 3c which tightens the knee from the resin impregnation section 3b positioning at the crus upward toward the rear side of the knee joint. The resin impregnation section 3c and the resin impregnation section 3d intersect with each other in the lateral segment of the knee joint. |
