The IOTV GroinProtector is lined with soft armor to stop shrapnel as well as to sometimes get stuck on a ladder rung when climbing down and flap back to hit you in the nuts or on your tip, or to rub your thighs on a ruck for the worst chafe you've ever had. Quite unpleasant.
Mostly useful to buy when you are outprocessing of the military, realize you're missing one of these and you need to buy one so CIF doesn't hit you with a big fine for losing your kit.
Our samples are issued but not heavily used. Sold as singles.
