• The Tackla 4500 Ice Girdle is up to half the weight of normal ice hockey pants without sacrificing protection. 
• The kidney, hip, and thigh protection consist of dual-density foam and an additional layer of thin EVA foam for excellent protection to all game scenario impacts. 
• High-density foam takes the initial impact while thick, medium-density foam adds a thick layer of comfort and impact absorption. 
• The tailbone guard is built with the same dual-density foam but with a much softer foam to keep things comfortable while sitting on the bench. 
• Lots of thin EVA foam fills in areas between the main protection to maximize coverage and feature large perforation to increase airflow throughout the game. 
• Virtually all of the protection is accessible to remove out of the girdle so players can wash their girdle without damaging the foam protection.
