Safehip Active Hip Protector Belt with Foam Shields, Fall Protection Garment for Elderly and Rehabilitation, Breathable AirX Fabric, Unisex

Very comfortable, both under or over my riding breeches. I bought this product to use while horseback riding, and preferred it to many other products because it is less bulky and does not interfere with my riding. Thankfully, I have not fallen from my horse so I cannot comment on how much protection it provides, but I feel more confident when riding.

This is brilliant (also the most researched brand of hip protector out there - rates very very high). I got the panty garment one first, same brand, and I like that too, but it's a bit of hassle taking it down in the bathroom and having to remove clothing to take it off. I was for some reason skeptical of this one but it's amazing - super lightweight, fastened with a simple velcro band and for me extremely comfortable. Easy to wear over clothing at home and as easy to put it on and off under. Very easy to love freely in it. If you have severe osteoporosis in hips and femur it's a lot of peace of mind. BUT as others have said, watch the sizing! I'm 5'3 and 115 pounds, tiny, but carry more weight in the hips, measure 38.5". That the deciding line between small and medium and very glad I went for the latter. It's pretty much a perfect fit and places the pad right where it needs to be. if I were a few inches broader it wouldn't reach. But I don't think there's a remotely affordable better brand out there. I don't get complaints about quality - it seems very well made to me, though maybe the velcro will fail after a while and need to be replaced, dunno, seems strong me.

My 87 yr old father fell in May, June and July and broke his left hip 3 times. The Friday before Thanksgiving he fell and broke his right hip. I ordered these hip pads and wondered if he would wear them. The answer is yes! He wears them daily and they make him feel more secure. Note* I think they run a little small, ordered the small the first time and it was too small, returned the small and ordered the larger size and it works great. Hopefully he won’t fall again, if he does, I hope these protect his hip from being broken or fractured.

My waist measurement is within the limits stated for a small and it rides up because of my hips. This should include hip measurement limits as well. I suppose I need a medium. Now I won’t know if the medium is going to be too big for my waist because it’s 38” and up and that’s way too big. Very expensive, good purpose, sizing isn’t as described, doesn’t feel bulky and I wish it had cushion on the lower back as well.

Well made, size is standard- fit is good.

To give protection for hips in case of a fall

I had ordered a medium for my dad, which didn't fit, so I ordered a large and that was too big. So I ended up returning both as my dad did not find it comfortable to use.

Having hip replacement and have a very active fur baby that likes to jump all over my lap.. thought this would help with the padding of my hip in case of one of those accidental jumps one least expected fits well and padding is working so far haven’t had that long to say how well it will hold up

Purchased for my mother (in a nursing home) and the staff said this is by far the best hip protector. It is so much easier then other types that pull up like briefs which makes it easy to take off or put on. This is especially handy when going to the bathroom. Highly recommend this product.

They are comfortable to wear and give me more confidence.

A must have for active seniors doing snow sports, cycling etc Comfortable. Hides under jacket. Has very solid effective hip protection. Elderly Seniors would also benefit. Should be worn in slippery conditions.

Did the trick, perhaps fit a wee bit snug.
