ABSTRACT:
An athletic protective gear includes a protective structural member, a protective pad, and a retainer unit. The structural member is formed to overlie a body part to be protected. The protective pad of depressible material is formed to be disposed between the protective structural member and the body part and has two openings formed therethrough. The retainer unit includes a fastener strap secured on an inner surface of the protective structural member and has two opposed end portions which respectively extend through the openings of the structural member, and two hook-and-loop elements which are secured to the end portions respectively and which engage each other in such a manner that the protective structural member abuts against an outer side surface of the protective pad, thereby retaining the end portions of the strap on an inner side surface of the protective pad. Thus, the protective pad is confined between the structural member and the body part. An external article or a person cannot impact directly the elements so as to prevent untimely removal of the hook-and-loop elements from each other.
