Blast Boxers™: Helps Prevent Blast and Fragment Injuries to the Groin

The prevalence of IED’s in Afghanistan is causing a high number of “life-changing” injuries to the lower body.

These include blinding and blast injuries to the groin, which can result in a ruptured colon or loss of genetalia. For all soldiers such injuries are “life-changing”. They are extremely difficult to live with psychologically.

Features:
  • Double layered Kevlar zones around the groin area and femoral arteries
  • Lightweight mesh sides and lining to help relieve the heat and perspiration - anti-odour and fast drying properties
  • External seams to maximise comfort
  • Low cut leg to help protect the femoral artery
  • Fire retardent
  • Blast and ballistic tested

You see that yellow? That’s double-layered Kevlar protecting your junk.
