Specific features

+ Suitable for Muay Thai, kickboxing, and MMA

The Twins SGL7 shin guards are primarily designed to meet the demands of Muay Thai - with optimal protection for kicks, knees, and defensive techniques. But the SGL7 is equally suitable for kickboxing and MMA.
Available in sizes XS to XL - suitable for children, women, and men, from beginners to professional champions.

Anatomically designed – follows the lower leg and calf

The Twins SGL7 shin guards are anatomically designed and follow the natural line of the lower leg, calf, and foot. This provides a comfortable fit that does not shift during training.

The pre-shaped design adapts to the fighter’s movements—ideal for the fast kicking and blocking techniques of Muay Thai and kickboxing.

Maximum shock absorption when kicking and blocking

The SGL7 offers maximum cushioning when delivering and blocking kicks. The foam padding effectively absorbs impact, ensuring both the attacker and defender are optimally protected during sparring.

Suitable for beginners through professionals—the SGL7 is the benchmark shin guard in the Muay Thai and kickboxing world, used by recreationalists and champions worldwide.

Double hook-and-loop fasteners – rock-solid during sparring

The double Velcro fasteners keep the SGL7 shin guards firmly in place—even during the fastest combinations and the most intense sparring sessions. Quick to put on and take off, hassle-free.

The fasteners are adjustable for a perfect fit on every leg - suitable for XS to XL and for both women and men.

How do you fasten the Twins shin guards?

All Twins shin guards feature a so-called "hook & loop closure". This is combined with additional elastic straps behind the Achilles tendon and under the foot.

Hook and loop means passing a strap through a buckle or loop, then bringing it back and pulling it tight.

Key benefits:

Adjustable fit: Hook & loop fasteners provide a precise fit, accommodate different calf sizes, and ensure that the shin guard stays securely in place during movement.
Ease of use: These fasteners are easy to secure, making them convenient for quick adjustments, especially during training.
Secure closure: When properly fastened, hook & loop closures provide a secure and reliable fit, preventing the shin guards from shifting or slipping during sports.
Durability: High-quality hook & loop fasteners are often reinforced with multiple rows of stitching for extra durability and can withstand frequent use.
