The Nike Strike Soccer Sleeves are built for the dynamic environment of the soccer pitch, specifically catering to the needs of infant players. Their primary function is to provide a reliable method for keeping shin pads securely positioned, which is crucial for player safety and comfort during games and training sessions. The ribbed poly fabric stretches to create a snug, compression-like fit around the lower leg, effectively preventing shin pads from sliding down or shifting, even during rapid movements, kicks, or falls.
Thanks to the integrated Dri-FIT technology, these sleeves actively pull sweat away from the skin, allowing it to evaporate quickly. This helps maintain a dry and comfortable feel, preventing chafing and irritation that can occur from moisture buildup, especially during warm weather or extended playtimes. The comfortable design means young players can focus on the game without being distracted by uncomfortable gear.
These sleeves are ideal for:
Soccer Training Sessions: Ensuring shin pads remain in place throughout drills and practice.
Match Day: Providing consistent security for shin protection during competitive play.
General Active Play: Useful for any activity where leg protection might be worn and needs to be stabilized.
Setup:
Preparation: Ensure your shin pads are clean and dry before use.
Positioning: Slide the Nike Strike Soccer Sleeve onto your leg up to just below the knee. The end with the Swoosh logo should be at the front, centered over the shin.
Insert Shin Pad: Carefully slide your shin pad underneath the sleeve, positioning it over your shin bone. Ensure it fits snugly within the sleeve.
Adjust: Pull the sleeve down slightly over the top and bottom edges of the shin pad to fully encompass it. Adjust the sleeve and pad until comfortable and secure. The ribbed fabric should provide a firm hold.
Compatibility:
These sleeves are compatible with most standard soccer shin pads designed for infant sizes. Ensure the dimensions of your shin pads fit comfortably within the sleeve without causing excessive bulk or discomfort.
Care:
Washing: The Nike Strike Soccer Sleeves are machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water.
Drying: Air dry for best results. Avoid using high heat in a dryer as it may affect the fabric's stretch and longevity.
Maintenance: Do not bleach or iron. Wash with similar colors.
