Alpha Skins Story

Alpha Skins is an Australian-owned, Gold Coast-based brand creating washable, slip-on shin guards for junior soccer players.

Founded by a local soccer family, Alpha Skins focuses on practical gear that supports comfort, durability, and easy care during regular training and game days.

Hey, I’m Jax 👋
I’m a junior soccer player, and I’m the inspiration behind Alpha Skins.

Soccer isn’t just something I play — it’s a huge part of my life. I love training, competing with my mates, and pushing myself to get better every game. Whether it’s chasing down a loose ball, working on my tackles, or trying to bend one into the top corner, I’m always all in.

Like a lot of kids, I had the same problems with shin guards — they slipped around, got uncomfortable, and always ended up smelling no matter what we did. My mum was constantly reminding me about it, and honestly… she wasn’t wrong.

That’s where the idea for Alpha Skins started — at home, like it does for many soccer families.
