Our Atomic Live Shield Shorts are protective shorts with special pads to protect your coccyx from impacts - whether that's a full-on wipeout or a slap from a race gate. The protection pads are made from ultra-lightweight multi-density 3-layer foam that's softer close to the body and stiffer on the outside to gradually absorb shock before it reaches your body. The shorts are made from special breathable and stretchy high-end textile fabrics so they feel tight and supportive but at the same time don't feel restrictive. The coccyx pads are also removable making the shorts flexible for different levels of activity.
