Shin guards are an integral part of a player’s uniforms. The shin guards act as an armor and provide safety for the player. The impact upon the shin bone is decreased when shin guards are worn.
Choose the correct size and shape of shin guards appropriate for a player’s position. Shin guards are available in four sizes i.e. extra-large, large, medium, small and extra small.
The price of shin guards varies according to the brand, type, and quality. There are basically two types of shin guards such as slip-ins or ankle shin guards. The slip-in shin guards are light shields that slide in underneath the socks and are a basic design without straps. This type of shin guard provides for high motion and mobility and is recommended for advanced players. On the contrary, ankle shin guards protect the ankles against kicks and sprains. This type of guard is suggested for young and intermediate players.
