Shin guards XPRT Pro V3 Midnight

The story of XPRT Fight Gear begins in 2005. Enthusiastic martial artist and entrepreneur has dreamed for years of a shop full of the finest fighting gear, accessible and affordable for everyone.

With personal experiences through training internships, seminars, competitions, and research, he has gained a clear vision of how to offer martial arts, fighting sports, and fighting gear to a broader audience in the new millennium.

With extensive experience in Thai boxing, boxing, karate, and especially ITF Taekwon-do, Fight2Win takes the first steps toward a complete product range. Initially, exclusively with ITF Taekwon-do uniforms, safety equipment under the brand and website Taekwon-do.nl.

Then follows the slogan: Fight2Win. And finally, with the help of other martial artists and graphic designers, a logo and a name emerge for a groundbreaking and affordable martial arts brand: XPRT Fight Gear!

In the best case, a shin guard extends exactly to just below your knee. 

However, we find it at least equally important that the shin guard is not too loose around your legs. So even if it doesn’t quite reach the knee but fits well otherwise, we think that is more important (read: better) than choosing a size larger.

A too large shin guard is actually a hindrance and will also tend to slide, which is very annoying during training.

The instep part should at least cover the top of your instep, but with some brands it extends over the entire foot. That’s not necessary. So if your toes stick out - as is the case with the Twins SGL7, for example - that is perfectly fine. After all, you shouldn’t be kicking with your toes.

A shin guard for kickboxing should fit well on your shin, from just below the knee to above the ankle, and should not be too loose or too tight. It should fully cover your shin for optimal protection but must not restrict your movements.

For every shin guard, we have created a unique size chart for that brand and model. Be sure to consult it and when in doubt, choose a smaller size rather than a larger one.

We have added a size chart to each product that you should consult. For the XPRT shin guards, the size charts below serve as a guideline.

If you are around 175 cm tall, you will fit into M or L. If you are unsure or have thin legs, we recommend choosing the smaller size. 

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.
