Abstract: A hockey goalkeeper leg pad includes a core, a skin covering the core, a lateral leg flap and a medial leg flap defining a leg channel, and a lacing member. The lacing member includes lower tabs and upper tabs. The lower tabs and the upper tabs each defining apertures with a front inner surface of the skin covering the core, and the lower tabs and the upper tabs being attached to the front inner surface at lateral outer ends thereof. The upper tabs are laterally offset outward of the lower tabs relative to a longitudinal centerline of the lacing member. A lace extends through the lower apertures and the upper apertures, as well as through the core to secure the core to the lacing member.

Abstract: A hockey goalkeeper leg pad with a top end and a bottom end, having: an outer shell having a facing section, a rear section, a lateral section, and a medial section, the medial section located inwardly of the lateral section when worn by the wearer, the facing, rear, lateral, and medial sections interconnected to form a pocket defined within the outer shell; a core padding received within the pocket of the outer shell; and a medial pad secured to the medial section of the outer shell, the medial pad having a longitudinal pad extending longitudinally between the top end and the bottom end, and a knee pad monolithically protruding from the longitudinal pad in a transverse direction, a width of the medial pad extending uninterrupted from a front edge of the longitudinal pad to a rear edge of the knee pad.

Abstract: A hockey goalkeeper leg pad includes a pad body and flaps extending from the pad body. The flaps including lateral and medial flaps spaced-part to define a leg channel. An inner strap is extendable across the leg channel to releasably attach one of the medial flaps to one of the lateral flaps. The inner strap is resilient along at least a longitudinal segment. The longitudinal segment is stretchable along a longitudinal axis of the inner strap to increase in length. An outer strap is extendable across the leg channel to releasably attach an outermost one of the medial flaps to an outermost one of the lateral flaps. The outer strap is less resilient than the longitudinal segment of the inner strap.

Abstract: A method for applying a condom onto a penis, the method comprising: applying the condom onto an expanding device; inserting at least a portion of the expanding device in a receiving component chamber defined by a condom receiving component through a receiving component proximal aperture leading into the receiving component chamber with the condom applied thereonto; expanding the condom using the expanding device with the condom applied thereonto; sealing the condom against the chamber peripheral surface delimiting the receiving component chamber so as to prevent ambient air from entering between the chamber peripheral surface and at least a section of the condom by creating a seal between the condom and the chamber peripheral surface; retracting the expanding device and removing the expanding device deprived of the condom from the receiving component chamber; inserting the penis of an intended user in the receiving component chamber with the condom sealed against the chamber peripheral surface; breaking the s
