The standard for college football clothing in the padding that is necessary for the protection of the players. College football clothing is not different from the professional football clothing or even the little league athletic wear for the contact sport. The helmet is also a standard addition to the college football clothing. But, basically, it is the extra padding that is required to protect the body from injury that could occur in a contact sport such as football that validates the proper wear for the sport.

Padding is material, usually soft, intended to protect some object. It consists usually of pads, small wads of rolled or stuffed fabric. Sports players wear padding to protect themselves from injury, particularly North American football, hockey and cricket players. Padding can be used to protect furniture as it is transported. Padding can be applied to walls, making a "padded room" in which a mentally disturbed person may be confined to prevent him from hurting himself on the walls.
