An orthotic for a joint of the human body, at which a body part pivots, includes first and second hinge members able to extend along respective posterior portions of body parts near the joint. The second member is able to be fitted with alternate orthotic support portions. A hinge connection joins the first member and the second member, permitting angular motion about an axis, and mutual disconnection and reconnection of the members at the hinge connection as the second member pivots relative to the first member.
