Abstract

A holding apparatus for holding a urine bag on a user's leg, especially the thigh, has a first knitted hose part, a second knitted hose part of the same diameter which is connected to the first hose part via a continuous connecting region. The first hose part is positioned onto a leg. The second hose part is folded upwardly onto the first knitted hose part to secure the urine bag on the leg. Also, a separating region, in the connecting region, enables the passage of an outlet of the urine bag when the knitted hose parts are in a folded condition.
