Savotta Varjelus Groin Protector Flap - Green
Ballistic groin protector designed to expand Plate Carrier tactical vests with an additional level of protection. The construction is made of durable 500D Cordura, which translates into high resistance to mechanical damage. The model is compatible with “SAPI cut” ballistic inserts (25 x 30 cm) and has been equipped with a PALS webbing system that allows the attachment of additional pouches.
Cordura construction, compatibility with SAPI cut inserts
The protector is made of strong 500D Cordura, which performs well in demanding use conditions. The materials used in the construction feature properties that reduce visibility in infrared (NIR). The interior of the protector has been prepared to fit soft NIJ IIIA ballistic inserts measuring 25 x 30 cm (not included in the set).
Attachment system
Attachment to the vest is done with a wide velcro panel (hook-and-loop), allowing the protector to be quickly and securely fastened to the lower part of the vest’s front panel. This arrangement is universal and compatible with most standard plate carriers available on the market.
PALS webbing
The front of the protector is equipped with vertically arranged PALS-standard webbing, allowing the attachment of additional equipment such as IFAK first aid kits or tactical tourniquet pouches.

Cordura is a material woven from durable nylon fibers, developed by DuPont. The structure of the material provides lightness and abrasion resistance, as well as weather resistance. Due to its properties, Cordura is widely used in tactical equipment.
PALS (Pouch Attachment Ladder System) is a modular mounting system for pockets and pouches, used in the MOLLE system. It consists of horizontally sewn rows of 1 inch (25.4 mm) wide, fixed spacing webbing (such as on a backpack) and vertical webbing for attachment and threading (on a pocket). This system is usually equipped with snaps, which further secures the pinned items.
