The present invention relates to a compression bandage for mammals, in particular for horses, comprising a tubular bandage (1) made of an elastic textile material, which can be opened and closed along a longitudinal slit (2) by means of fastening elements. To design this type of bandage in such a manner that it can be applied to the leg of a mammal using the easiest possible technique and that it can ensure an excellent fit even over an extended period of time so that the most uniformly constant and defined compressive pressure is exerted by the bandage on the leg of the mammal, the present invention proposes that the fastening elements comprise a zipper (3) which extends along the longitudinal slit (2), at last one fastener strap (4) which, when closed, straddles the longitudinal slit (2) in the transverse direction, and a hook fastener (5) which extends along the longitudinal slit (2).
A compression bandage for mammals, in particular for horses, comprising a tubular bandage made of an elastic textile material which can be opened and closed along a longitudinal slit by means of fastening elements that are disposed on the bandage, wherein the fastening elements comprise a zipper that extends along the longitudinal slit, at least one fastener strap which, when closed, straddles the longitudinal slit in the transverse direction, and hook fasteners which extend along the longitudinal slit.
