The genuine issue hip protector pad is worn on the inside of the webbing belt, providing additional padding to the hip area. Made with nylon mesh to prevent chafing and promote ventilation, and crafted with tough IRR treated DPM cordura nylon, this belt is both durable and practical. With 5 adjustable straps and 20mm fastex buckles, the pad can be easily added or removed as needed. This example is in very good condition all round and is dated 2003. Please see photos for condition.
