The Importance of Shin Guards

Football can be a contact sport where players not only come into contact with the ball, but also other players. And because of this, players need to ensure that they are protected in their most exposed places. The shin is a vulnerable area for impact, especially from opponents football boots which are ladened with metal studs which can cause damage if not fully protected.

Soccer kits feature shorts as opposed to trousers, so the coverage is next to none apart from the layer of fabric from their socks, so the need for added protection is important. Shin Guards sit nicely underneath football socks without altering their fit so that you can reduce the likelihood of injury while adhering to the Football Association’s rules.

Shin guards have many layers to them and feature a padded inner layer and a more structured and rigid outer layer. When these layers are combined, they work together in order to absorb the impact of contact while shielding the shin. Shin pads are made from a variety of synthetic materials and differ from brand to brand, a few examples of materials used are:

  • Fiberglass
  • Foam rubber
  • Polyurethane
  • Plastic
  • Metal
