ABSTRACT:
An athletic garment particularly suitable for hockey players protects the genital area of the wearer. The garment comprises a waistband which is supported at the wearer's waist elastically and with a drawstring. An inner pant and an outer pant are attached the waistband. The inner pant has a rise so selected that its crotch portion engages and supports the genital area of the wearer. The outer pant has a pocket adjacent its crotch portion which receives a genital protector. The pocket is positioned to overlay the genital area when the waistband is maintained at the wearer's waist thereby ensuring proper protection. The outer pant has a larger rise than the inner pant so that the pocket is normally spaced from the wearer's genital area, providing greater comfort and enhanced freedom of movement. Hook-type Velcro.TM. fasteners are positioned on the front and back of each pant leg associated with the outer pant and serve to support hockey stockings.
