FAQs

What makes these different from regular shin guards?

The SP10 is specifically designed for calf kick protection with high-density foam that's been battle-tested by professional fighters. The universal fit strap system also accommodates all calf sizes, unlike standard shin guards with fixed sizing.

Can I use these for sparring and competition?

Absolutely. These guards are rigorously tested by professional athletes who compete regularly. They provide the protection needed for both hard training sessions and competitive matches.

How do I clean and maintain microfiber leather?

Simply wipe down with a damp cloth after each use to remove sweat and bacteria. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat. The microfiber material is much easier to maintain than natural leather.

Will these fit over ankle supports or wraps?

Yes. The universal fit design with the folding strap system provides enough adjustability to accommodate ankle wraps or supports underneath while still maintaining a secure fit.
