SIZING - it is important that you do an accurate hip measurement so that you select the correct size. Click here to see the measuring guidelines.
The Active Sports Shorts are a snug, fitted style. If you measure at the higher end of a size and you don't like your clothing tight, we recommend you choose the next size up. For example, if you measure 36 inches and like your clothes snug and fitted, choose XS, however if you prefer a more relaxed fit, choose the S.
Phoenix Hipwear Shields are 3D printed in the USA.

Phoenix Hipwear garments with hip protector shields are designed to protect the hips from injuries in a fall. While they may help lessen the severity of the impact in a fall, it does not guarantee that they will prevent a hip fracture.

Excellent customer service and support.
These hip protectors are so easy and comfortable to wear. They give me extra confidence while being more active.
Thanks Robin, it's great that you find these easy and comfortable to wear. That is our goal - protecting hips should be something easy to do!
I currently have both the shorts as well as the liners, and I interchange the protection shields. I’m currently doing a ton of hiking in New Zealand and I have worn these pants up to 4000 feet numerous times including going up 2200 stairs. 😲
They are very comfortable and I’m actually do not even notice that I am wearing it, but it gives me an extra layer of confidence and security given that I also have osteoporosis.
I plan to take these shields with me anytime I am hiking, but truthfully, I could wear them every day as well.
I’m hoping that they will come out with more options, including other colors like blue
Many many thanks
Great to hear you are enjoying wearing these in NZ - there are certainly some amazing hiking spots in this very beautiful country! The stair count is impressive!
We want to bring out lots more options - styles and colors so we'll keep you posted!
I’ve been wearing my shorts/shields for horse riding. Very comfy under my riding pants and they do not affect my mobility for mounting, riding and dismounting.
Thanks for your feedback, so glad that you are finding them comfortable for riding. It was great to see the picture you posted in Brick House Bones of you on your horse!
I am 54 years old and diagnosed with Osteoporosis. I am so grateful to have found Natasha with Phoenix Hipwear. She took the time to personally meet with me (online) prior to purchasing and answered all my questions. She really does stand behind her product and communication after purchase remains top notch! The Phoenix Hipwear really is a game changer for any person wishing to stay active and have peace of mind that they are protected against a potential hip fracture. For me, staying active is vital to my health and well-being-- and this product allows me to just that! It has empowered me and given me the freedom and confidence to safely participate in activities during our winter months here in Canada. I can now enjoy the activities I love such as walking, urban poling, and cross country skiing on the snow/ice without being afraid. I can even wear it in the pool and not have to worry about slipping on the pool deck. (It easily fits under most pants/shorts). I hope this review helps other women who are wondering if it is worth purchasing. Thank you Natasha for your kindness and ensuring I had the perfect fit.
It was an absolute pleasure meeting you via zoom and talking about your activities, your concerns and how Phoenix Hipwear might help. I love that you say staying active is vital to your health and well-being, it's so important! I'm grateful that we can now support you to stay active with your hips protected. I appreciate your kind feedback.
The Full Fit Boxer is exactly what I was hoping for. The material is thick enough to be worn as shorts, but thin enough so they feel very comfortable and flexible. The material is mainly cotton but just enough stretch so they don't bind or ride up. Extremely comfortable. The shields fit right in the pockets so nicely and are easy to get in and out. They are situated at just the right place for optimal protection. 100% satisfaction. Bought a second pair.
I'm so glad you have the added protection for your hips and we were able to get the right style and size so that they are comfortable. Stay active, stay safe!
