Who Can Make Gains with McDavid Hexpad Thudd Padded Shorts?
The specially designed protection in these shorts includes padding on the hip, tailbone and thigh regions. This area conforms and stretches with your body for continuous protection and support. For additional comfort, these shorts have been treated with hDc moisture management technology, enhancing heat and sweat control.
How Do Hexpad and hDC Technologies work?
McDavid's patented Hexpad technology consists of hexagonal cutouts of a shock-absorbing athletic foam, adhered to the textile of the sports apparel. This allows for a lightweight and flexible garment, which is very effective in providing protection against impacts.
All McDavid Hexpad garments also employ hDc technology. This makes moisture spread widely throughout the synthetic textiles, allowing it to evaporate quicker. This enables the athlete to control their body temperature better, saving valuable energy in the process.
Cooling Comfort
The unique design of Hexpad allows for air to circulate amongst the protective hexagonal units. This allows for the garment to breath and the athlete to cool off.
Hexpad apparel provides a unique combination of light and comfortable protection, which enhances the confidence and performance of the athletes who wear it, making the game more enjoyable for everyone.
