Patent ID: 8764694

Claim:
A support unit for a person's leg comprising: A) a support comprising an inner support zone for providing support to a laterally inner side of a person's ankle and an outer support zone for providing support to a laterally outer side of a person's ankle; B) a proximal connection which cooperates with the support for keeping the inner and outer support zones against inner and outer sides of a person's ankle; and C) a distal connection extending lengthwise distally from a first of two lengthwise opposite ends which is attached to one support zone, laterally underneath a foot of a person's leg, and proximally to hook attachment material disposed on the other support zone, the distal connection comprising an elastic strap which comprises lengthwise stretchable material providing detachable/re-attachable attachment directly to the hook attachment material disposed on the other support zone, in which the distal connection's length is long enough to enable the distal connection to extend back to the one support zone from where the stretchable material directly detachably/re-attachably attaches to the hook attachment material disposed on the other support zone, and further comprising hook attachment material at a second of the two lengthwise opposite ends for detachably/re-attachably attaching to lop attachment material on the one support zone.
