FAQs
How do I choose the right size shinguard?
Select the size that corresponds to your body height. For example, if you are 170cm tall, the Large (L) size, recommended for 160cm-180cm, is likely the best fit.
Can I wear these shinguards with any type of sock?
Yes, these shinguards are designed to be worn with standard football socks. You can position them either inside or outside your socks, depending on your preference for fit and comfort.
How should I clean my PUMA shinguards?
Wipe the shinguards clean with a damp cloth. It is important to let them air dry completely before storing them away.
Are these shinguards suitable for professional play?
These shinguards offer good protection for amateur play and training. For professional levels, players might opt for shinguards with more extensive coverage or specialized protective features.
What is the main protective material used?
The primary protective layer is a high-resistant PP (polypropylene) hardshell, complemented by a shock-absorbing EVA backing for cushioning.
Do these shinguards have good ventilation?
Yes, the EVA backing is perforated, which allows for improved airflow and ventilation to help keep you comfortable during play.
Troubleshooting
Shinguard slips down during play
Ensure the straps are tightened securely and evenly. Try wearing them over or under your socks to see which provides a better grip. Make sure you have selected the correct size for your height.
Straps are difficult to adjust or fasten
Check that the hook-and-loop fasteners are clean and free of debris. Ensure the straps are not twisted.
Discomfort around the shin or calf
Verify the size is correct. The hard shell should cover the shinbone without digging into the calf. Ensure the EVA backing is properly seated.
