Krav Maga shin guards made from different materials

Our Krav Maga shin guards are made from different materials, mostly synthetic leather or a combination of polyester-cotton and foam. We offer a good shin guard for Krav Maga or other martial arts.

Shin guards are indispensable in this serious form of self-defense. We offer a wide range of Krav Maga shin guards. In our webshop and store, you will find every type of shin guard suitable for Krav: both with foot protection and without, depending on your preference or that of your trainer.

What size Krav Maga shin guards do I need?

Of course, you can come to our martial arts store to try on the Krav Maga protection of your choice. We have all common models in stock, unless otherwise stated.

However, the sizes of the different brands cannot be compared with each other. For example, a King SG2 in size XL is many times larger than a comparable Twins in size XL. Therefore, it is wise to follow our size chart. In 9 out of 10 cases, you will have made the right choice.

For small children, our advice is almost always a sock model (without foot) Krav children shin guard. Children from 8-10 years old can move on to the XPRT cotton shin guard which features 3 elastic Velcro closures.

Maintenance of Krav Maga shin guards

You naturally want your Krav Maga gear to stay in good condition. Your clothing can go in the wash, but your boxing gloves and your shin guards absolutely MUST NOT GO IN THE WASHING MACHINE.

So how do you keep your Krav shin guards in good condition? To start, dry your shin guards with a towel after training.

This prevents sweat from soaking in. But during training, sweat naturally also soaks in. Therefore, it is wise for people who sweat a lot to let their shin guards ventilate well. A good place is the doormat.

We also sell Sukkiri & Fresh KO spray. This type of antibacterial spray kills all bacteria that cause unpleasant odors.

Frequently Asked Questions — Krav maga shin guards

Can I also try on shin guards at your place and buy them immediately?

Yes.

You can absolutely come try on shin guards with us and purchase them immediately. That way you know 100% for sure that you walk out of the showroom with the right shin guards! We have the same stock in our physical showroom as in the webshop.

There is always a specialist available who can help you choose the right shin guard for you and your budget.

Is there a difference between women's and men's shin guards?

No.

There aren't really specific women's or men's shin guards. Shin guards are unisex, but women usually just choose a slightly smaller size of shin guards. These are available in various color combinations.

Women are generally a bit shorter than men, so it makes sense that they also need a smaller (and shorter) shin guard. 

How long do shin guards last?

With intensive use, most good shin guards last about 1 to 1.5 years. After that, most shin guards need to be replaced.

The lifespan obviously depends on several factors: maintenance, quality of the materials used, and the type of training. Cheaper shin guards will not reach this lifespan.

Heavy bag training shortens the lifespan of shin guards by an average of six months.

A vulnerable point on every pair of shin guards is the elastic bands. Naturally, this material will stretch over time. It is important to put on the shin guards carefully and not to pull hard on the elastic bands.

How should a shin guard fit?

A shin guard must fit correctly on the shin to provide the most effective protection and mobility. A shin guard consists of a safety kick and the shin protector. The part that protects the shin should start just above the ankle and end just below the knee. You ideally want the top strap of the closure to be on the calf, because if it falls in the back of the knee, it can cause irritation or pain.

What does hook & loop closure mean?

A hook & loop closure is used in various products in our range, such as punching mitts, belly protectors, headgear, and shin guards.

This type of closure is most common with shin guards. Hook and loop means threading a strap through a buckle or loop and then pulling it back tight.

Main advantages:

  • Adjustable fit: hook & loop closures provide a precise fit, are suitable for different calf sizes, and ensure the shin guard stays securely in place during movement.
  • Ease of use: these closures are easy to fasten, making them convenient for quick adjustments, especially during training.
  • Secure closure: when properly applied, hook & loop closures can offer a safe and reliable fit, preventing the shin guards from shifting or slipping during sports.
  • Durability: High-quality hook & loop closures, such as those on the Twins SGL7 shin guards, are often double-stitched for extra durability and withstand frequent use.

Can I use shin guards on the punching bag?

Yes.

In case of bruises or pain in the shins, it is possible to use shin guards.

Using shin guards on the punching bag does cause "scuffmarks" (stains, stripes, and smudges) on the shin guards and punching bag.
