A porous, breathable pad for use as protective padding by a person to absorb the force of an impact and to protect the user from injury while allowing liquids and air to freely pass through the pad. The pad includes a plurality of discrete, solid beads of inelastic and waterproof, closed-cell foam wherein some outer portions of adjacent beads abut one another and other outer portions of the adjacent beads are spaced from each other to create interstitial spaces. In the preferred embodiments, substantially all of the adjacent beads are fused together at their abutting, outer portions and the interstitial spaces are substantially uniformly distributed throughout the pad.
