FLUID-FILLED PAD WITH VOIDS

Abstract:

Aspects herein are directed to a fluid-filled pad for a protective garment. The fluid-filled pad includes two or more elongate voids that extend entirely through the fluid-filled pad. The elongate voids are positioned inward from an exterior edge of a first surface of the fluid-filled pad, and one elongate void extends from another elongate at an angle that is less than 180 degrees. Other aspects are directed to a protective garment system in which the fluid-filled pad is positioned between a first textile layer and a second textile layer of a garment.
