FAQs
What are the primary materials of the shin guards?
The shin guards are made from a combination of 70% polypropylene, 30% EVA for the guard and 68% polyester, 21% rubber, and 11% nylon for the straps.
How do I measure for the correct size?
Measure the length of your lower leg from your ankle to just below your knee. Use the Nike size chart to find the corresponding size.
Can I wash these shin guards in a washing machine?
No, it is recommended to hand wash these shin guards with mild soap and water.
How often should I replace my shin guards?
Replace your shin guards when the hardshell is cracked or significantly damaged, or if the foam cushioning is severely compressed and no longer provides adequate protection. Frequent use may warrant replacement every season or two.
Are these shin guards left and right specific?
Yes, these shin guards are designed with a left/right-specific fit for enhanced protection and comfort.
What should I do if the straps break?
If the straps break, you can purchase replacement straps or replace the entire shin guard. Ensure the straps are securely fastened during use.
Can these shin guards be used for sports other than soccer?
While designed for soccer, these shin guards could potentially be used for other sports where lower leg protection is needed, but always verify if the product meets the specific requirements of the respective sport.
Troubleshooting
Shin guards feel loose or slide down during play.
Check the straps and readjust them to ensure a tighter fit. Make sure the shin guards are the correct size for your legs.
Straps are fraying or breaking.
Replace the straps if they are damaged. Consider purchasing replacement straps from Nike or a sporting goods store.
