In my day we had the ass and hip pads on a belt and nothing but a jock under the pants. Never got to try a girdle but do y'all see more benefits than just ease of use/ flexibility? Was cleaning and saw the hip/tail pads we keep around as backup in case guys forget and made me think of the gear evolution.

Also, what did y'all use when you played?

WE had the belt with the 3 pads all as a full set for those who preferred that, and others (like me) who wore a cloth girdle, in which we had to remove the pads for washing and inserting pads post-washing.
