Shin Guards for Junior Soccer: What to Look For

Junior soccer is full of action, and young players need shin guards they’re happy to wear. If they’re bulky, slip down or need constant adjusting, kids tend to leave them off or play distracted.

What families look for

• Easy to put on: a slip-on design with no straps or tape
• Comfortable fit: soft, flexible and lightweight
• Stays in place: designed to sit securely under socks
• Easy to clean: wash cold, air dry in the shade, do not tumble dry
• Right size: check our sizing guide, as kids grow quickly
