Any of you use the McDavid cushioned undershorts? The one with the octagonal cushioning system? Hexpad I think they call it.

Thinking about buying one or two. Thigh bruising hurts too.

Why would they call it "hexpad" if it's octagonal?

I have them. It is hard to judge the level of protection. It is still painful, but I have not been bruised while wearing them, but I do not know if it is the pads or I just have not had a direct hit.

The downside is the heat. They are very hot.
