The Hipsafety hip protector shorts, designed for senior citizens, reduce the risk of injury in the case of a tumble. The protective padding at the hips absorbs the impact of a fall. It is so thin that it can also be worn comfortably while sleeping and easily removed for washing. Due to the generous opening with three Velcro fasteners, the shorts are easy to put on and take off. The silicone strips on the inside prevent incontinence aids from slipping out of position.
