(57) A personal radiation protection garment includes a first layer (20), a second layer (22), a protective layer between the first and second layers. The first layer includes first and second sections joined at a first seam (30), and the second layer includes third and fourth sections joined at a second seam (40). The protective layer includes first and second partially lapping radiation-protective panels (44, 46), the first panel (44) being attached to the first layer (20) at a first attachment zone and the second panel (46) being attached to the second layer (22) at a second attachment zone. The first panel (44) laps the second panel (46) across the second attachment zone to provide a continuous protective covering of the second attachment zone, and the second panel laps the first panel across the first attachment zone to provide a continuous protective covering of the first attachment zone.
