Abstract
A knee brace including an adaptable anterior thigh pad for securing an upper portion of the brace to a user's thigh wherein the anterior thigh pad automatically adjusts to underlying soft tissue motion during knee and leg movement. The anterior thigh pad includes a flexible upper horizontal connection and a pair of substantially rigid x-crossing connections. The anterior thigh pad tightens and loosens during normal leg flexing and straightening so as to maintain a tight skeletal grip on the users leg while adapting to thigh muscle movement. The individual straps of the anterior thigh pad connecting the thigh pad to the rigid arms of the knee brace are independently adjustable to accommodate any leg size or shape.
