Abstract A protective leg covering is manufactured from a single piece of material. The material is cut into a blank having a rectangular shape. It is designed to be wrapped around the leg, securing snugly but comfortably two to three inches above the knee with the longitudinal edges of the leg section extending down to the top of the arch of the foot in front and above the bottom of the heel in back. A hook and pile closure sewn at the corners of the top and the bottom elevations of said blank of material provides the user with adjustability to the desired snugness of the fit. The device is light weight, having no metal strips, straps or other heavy objects required in its construction, requires nothing to be removed or adjusted on the leg or foot to be attached to the leg of the wearer, and is easy and quick to put on and take off.
