FAQs

How do I determine the right size?

Consult the sizing chart provided by Puma or the retailer. Generally, measure the length of your shin and choose the size that best corresponds to the guard's coverage area.

Can these be machine washed?

It is recommended to hand wash these shin guards in cold water. Machine washing may damage the materials or alter their fit. Always check the product label for specific instructions.

Are these suitable for professional matches?

These shin guards are designed for sports requiring leg protection. Check the specific regulations of your league or governing body, as some may have specific requirements for shin guard type and coverage.

How do I clean the plastic shell?

Wipe the plastic shell with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which could damage the surface or branding.

What is the primary benefit of the compression sleeve?

The compression sleeve's main benefit is to keep the shin guard securely in place during active play, preventing it from shifting or falling down, and providing a snug, comfortable fit.

Can I wear these shin guards without socks?

While technically possible, it is not recommended. Shin guards are designed to be worn over a sports sock for added comfort, hygiene, and to help keep them in place. Wearing them directly against the skin may cause chafing.

Troubleshooting

Shin guards slipping during play

Ensure the compression sleeve is pulled up firmly and fits snugly. Verify that the shin guard is correctly positioned within the sleeve and centered on the shin. Ensure socks are not excessively worn or loose.

Discomfort or irritation from the compression sleeve

Check that you have selected the correct size. If the sleeve feels too tight, try a larger size or ensure it is positioned correctly without excessive bunching. Ensure the padded lining is facing inwards.

Plastic shell feels too rigid

The guards are designed to be rigid for protection. Wear them for a few short sessions to allow them to conform slightly to your leg shape. Ensure they are not worn with overly thick socks which might affect fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Simply slide the shin guards into the compression sleeve. Ensure the guard covers the main shin area from just below the knee to just above the ankle. Adjust the sleeve for a snug, comfortable fit.

Compatibility: These shin guards are designed for use in various sports requiring leg protection, such as soccer, futsal, and training. They are intended to be worn with sports socks.

Care: Always refer to the product label for specific care instructions. Generally, to maintain the integrity and performance of the materials:

  1. Hand wash the shin guards and sleeve in cold water with mild detergent.
  2. Do not bleach.
  3. Air dry completely away from direct heat.
  4. Do not iron.
