Definition and Scope: Soft hip protectors are specialized garments or pads designed to protect the hips from impact and reduce the risk of hip fractures, particularly in older adults or individuals at risk of falls. These protectors are typically made from soft, flexible materials such as foam or gel, and are worn discreetly under clothing.

Additionally, advancements in material technology have led to the development of more comfortable and discreet hip protector designs, further fueling market growth. In addition to these trends, several market drivers are contributing to the expansion of the soft hip protector market. One of the primary drivers is the growing emphasis on proactive healthcare management and preventive measures to maintain quality of life and independence in older adults. Healthcare professionals are increasingly recommending the use of soft hip protectors as a cost-effective way to reduce the incidence of hip fractures and associated healthcare costs.
