Abstract
A tubular brace constructed so that no seam overlies the fold line of the surface skin behind the user's knee, or on top of the user's elbow, when the brace is being worn, thereby minimizing abrasive discomfort at those surface skin fold areas. Specifically, a first rear surface stitch line is positioned above the surface skin fold line at the knee or elbow joint, and a second rear surface stitch line is positioned below that surface skin fold line, these stitch lines being generally transverse to the brace's longitudinal axis, and these stitch lines cooperating with a generally longitudinal stitch line that extends between the brace's top and bottom edges.
