An orthopedic knee brace formed as a tubular member made of a material having a core of foamed rubber material, which on both faces is laminated with textile fabric, is provided with an opening in the region intended to be located above the patella of the wearer. Primary Velcro-type fastener segments are attached to the tubular member, to each side of the opening, and oriented along two separate lines, substantially in parallel with the longitudinal axis of the member. The segments are adapted to form attachments for at least one secondary Velcro-type fastener strip, separable from the member and having a length substantially equal to the distance between the outward edges of the outer, primary Velcro-type fastener segments. |
