FAQs

Are these shin guards machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the protective foam and elastic components. Please hand wash with a damp cloth.

What does the CE and UKCA certification mean?

These certifications indicate that the product meets stringent European and UK safety requirements for protective sports equipment.

Can I remove the ankle sock if I prefer a sleeve-only guard?

No, the ankle sock is fixed to the design to ensure consistent impact protection and should not be removed.

Are these guards suitable for both youth and adults?

This model is a Medium size, generally suitable for teenagers and adults, depending on individual shin length.

How should I measure my shin to see if these fit?

Measure from the base of your knee to the top of your ankle. The guard should cover the majority of the shin bone without touching the knee joint.

Troubleshooting

Guard keeps sliding down during play

Ensure the elastane strap is fastened securely and check that your football sock is tight enough to hold the guard against your shin.

Ankle sock feels uncomfortable or causes friction

Check if your boot's tongue is bunching up inside the sock; ensure the sock is pulled taut and sits flat against your skin.

Build-up of odor in the foam

Regularly wipe the foam with a mild, antibacterial soap solution and allow for proper air circulation after every use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight construction prevents leg fatigue
  • Breathable EVA foam manages sweat effectively
  • Ergonomic fit reduces shifting during play
  • Comprehensive protection including ankle coverage
  • Reliable certifications ensure safety compliance

Cons

  • Integrated ankle sock may feel bulky inside some boot styles
  • Textured outer shell can collect mud and debris
  • Requires careful hand washing to preserve foam integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, slide the ankle sock over your foot before pulling on your football socks. Ensure the protective shell is centered on your shin bone. The elastane strap should be pulled snug but not so tight that it restricts circulation.

Care Instructions:

  1. After every match, remove the guards from your socks.
  2. Wipe down the outer PP shell with a damp cloth to remove dirt.
  3. Air dry the EVA foam backing away from direct sunlight or radiators to prevent the foam from cracking.
  4. Do not machine wash, as this may compromise the foam density and structural integrity of the ankle support.
