Hip Savers

Prevent hip injury with the superior soft hip protector. Greater protection, comfort and convenience for less!

Hip Saver all-soft hip protector underwear provides greater shock absorption than hard-shell products. So you can offer lightweight, comfortable, affordable and easy-to-launder hip protection, without compromising safety.

Hip Saver hip protectors use a dual mechanism - shock absorption and energy shunting - to reduce fall force. The patent pending Hip Saver air pad uses foam (developed by NASA to protect astronauts) in an airtight waterproof pouch, which is sewn into the underwear over each hip. In the event of a fall, the foam first absorbs impact - then, like a miniature automobile air bag, inflates the pouch, shunting force away from the vulnerable hipbone to the soft tissue of the buttocks.

In a controlled study, the group wearing Hip Saver hip protector underwear had a 0% fracture rate (199 falls over 26 months) compared to a 4.3% fracture rate (369 falls over 26 months) for the less at-risk control group. Today after more than three years and over 300 falls, there still has not been a single fracture among Hip Saver wearers.
