McDavid Rival 5-Pad Girdle – Compression Protection for Football
The McDavid Rival 5-Pad Girdle (MD21800) combines a supportive compression short with integrated protection for key impact areas. Five built-in pads protect the hips, thighs and tailbone, making this girdle a reliable first protective layer underneath your football pants.
The lightweight compression fit keeps the padding close to the body and helps it stay in the correct position during sprints, quick changes of direction and demanding contact situations. Breathable materials also help improve airflow and comfort during long practices and games.
5 integrated pads for targeted protection
The Rival Girdle features durable high-density foam padding over both hips, both thighs and the tailbone. The padding is designed to combine impact protection with flexibility and durability while remaining washable together with the girdle.
Its close-to-body construction makes the compression short ideal for layering underneath football game pants without adding unnecessary bulk.
Breathable construction built for demanding play
The main fabric is made from 88% polyester and 12% elastane, combining durability with the flexibility required for football movements. Additional 100% polyester mesh areas improve ventilation and help release excess heat.
6-thread flatlock technology provides strong, durable seams while helping reduce uncomfortable pressure and friction against the skin. This construction provides additional comfort during extended wear.
Integrated cup pocket
The McDavid Rival 5-Pad Girdle also features an integrated cup pocket for additional protection. An athletic cup is not included and can be inserted separately when required.
Durable and washable
The girdle can be machine washed cold with mild detergent. Its integrated high-density foam pads are designed to withstand regular use and washing. Do not bleach or dry clean. Tumble dry on low heat.

Note: Wear items
American Football is a contact sport. Your equipment is subject to high loads. Padded pants and shirts are specially produced for American football or equivalent contact sports. Due to the force and nature of the opponent contact, the durability of the equipment is affected. In the case of wear items, damage can also occur within the statutory warranty, due to the use (For example, if someone tackles you and tugs at your belongings, parts will break in or out). If you find a defect in your upholstered belongings, this is not automatically subject to the statutory liability for defects. You should have small damage repaired yourself, so they do not develop into a total loss.
