Saunders Sully® Hip S'port® Adjustable Hip & Groin Support

The Saunders Sully® Hip S'port® is a soft, highly adjustable hip support designed for situations where targeted stabilization is needed without converting the hip into a rigidly immobilized joint. Its shorts-style neoprene base provides a secure foundation, while two broad elastic straps can be repositioned to change where and how support is applied around the hip, groin, and upper thigh.

Unlike a conventional compression garment with a fixed compression pattern, the Sully Hip S'port uses a hook-responsive outer surface that allows the straps to be attached in different locations and directions. This gives the wearer or clinician considerably more flexibility when adapting the support to the activity and area involved.

A removable closed-cell foam pad is also included for localized protection around areas such as a hip pointer or thigh bruise.

Sully Hip S'port at a Glance

Adjustable Support Instead of a Fixed Compression Pattern

The defining feature of the Sully Hip S'port is its repositionable strap system.

The garment's exterior acts as an attachment surface for the two elastic straps. Instead of requiring one predetermined wrap path, the straps can be positioned according to the region and direction where additional support is desired.

That makes the Sully different from basic compression shorts, which primarily provide generalized circumferential compression. The Sully adds the ability to create more targeted support around the hip, groin, hamstring, quadriceps, or upper thigh while retaining a soft, flexible construction.

Applications

The Sully Hip S'port for functional support associated with several hip and upper-leg applications.

The Sully Hip S'port is a soft functional support, not a rigid postoperative hip brace with hinges or mechanical range-of-motion stops. Appropriate use following an injury should be determined with a physician, physical therapist, or athletic trainer when clinical guidance is indicated.

Sully Hip S'port Size Chart

Choose the size using waist circumference.

Measure the waist carefully before ordering rather than selecting a size based only on ordinary pants sizing. If a measurement falls unusually close to a size boundary, contact us before ordering for help confirming the appropriate size.

What Comes With the Sully Hip S'port?

Each support includes:

• Sully Hip S'port neoprene support garment
• Two adjustable 5 × 44-inch elastic straps
• One protective closed-cell foam pad

The movable straps and pad are integral to the product's adaptable design and distinguish the Sully Hip S'port from a conventional pair of compression shorts.

Sully Hip S'port vs. Other Types of Hip Support

The correct category depends on the objective. A user who needs ordinary compression may not need the adjustability of the Sully, while someone prescribed a rigid postoperative brace should not substitute a soft functional support.

Built for Functional Movement

The inner neoprene construction is designed to move with the body rather than functioning as a rigid shell. This makes the Sully particularly relevant to sports-medicine and rehabilitation settings where the objective is to provide additional support while preserving functional movement.

The wide elastic straps can be repositioned as needed, and the protective pad can be placed where localized cushioning is desired.

Follow the fitting instructions and any directions provided by your healthcare professional or athletic trainer. Strap positioning and tension should be appropriate for the intended use and should not create numbness, tingling, excessive pressure, or impaired circulation.

Complementary Hot & Cold Therapy Options

The Sully Hip S'port provides wearable mechanical support; it does not replace a hot or cold therapy product.

For reusable cold therapy following activity when appropriate, see the Chattanooga ColPac reusable cold therapy packs.

For a flexible option that can be used for either hot or cold applications, we also carries reusable Uni-Patch hot and cold gel packs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Sully Hip S'port used for?

The applications include hip flexor strain, hamstring pull, groin pull, hip pointer, thigh bruise, quadriceps pull, and assistance with selected hip movements. It is designed as a soft functional support rather than a rigid immobilizer.

How is the Sully Hip S'port different from compression shorts?

Compression shorts primarily provide relatively uniform compression. The Sully adds two broad repositionable straps that can be attached in different locations and directions, allowing the support pattern to be customized.

Does the Sully Hip S'port include a hip pointer pad?

Yes. A closed-cell foam protective pad is included and can be positioned to provide localized cushioning for areas such as a hip pointer or thigh bruise.

How do I choose my size?

Measure your waist and compare the measurement with the manufacturer's size chart. Sizes range from X-Small for a 24–27 inch waist through XX-Large for a 45–49 inch waist.

Is the Sully Hip S'port a rigid hip brace?

No. It is a soft neoprene functional support with elastic straps. It does not have hinges or mechanical range-of-motion stops and should not be substituted for a rigid brace when one has been specifically prescribed.

What color is the current Sully Hip S'port?

The manufacturer identifies the current product as black.

Can it be used for either side of the hip?

The shorts-style garment surrounds the pelvis and upper thighs, while the repositionable straps attach to the hook-responsive exterior. This allows the strap configuration to be directed toward the region where support is required. Follow the fitting instructions for the intended application.

What sizes are available?

X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, and XX-Large.

Does the product come with the support straps?

Yes. Two 5 × 44-inch elastic straps are included, along with the protective foam pad.

Is the Sully Hip S'port intended to completely immobilize the hip?

No. Its purpose is functional adjustable support. A rigid brace intended to restrict hip range of motion is a different product category.
