The 5 Best Shin Guards for Children

Checklist for Shin Guards for Children:

Size

  • When buying shin guards for kids, make sure you get the right size.
  • The size is usually based on the height of the child:
  • If the height is less than 120 cm, a shin guard in size XSS is recommended.
  • If the child is 120 – 140 cm tall, a shin guard in size XS recommended
  • At a size of 140 – 160 cm a shin guard in size S is recommended
  • At a size of 160 – 175 cm a shin guard in size M is recommended
  • At a size of 175 – 185 cm a shin guard in size L is recommended
  • Adjustable straps and closures on the ankle and shin ensure long-lasting use.

Material

  • A strong and hard front made of plastic should ensure safe protection.
  • Look for a soft inner material that provides additional padding.

Use

  • When putting on the shin guards, make sure that they do not interfere with your child’s movements.
  • Your child should be able to walk, run and shoot a ball without any problems.
  • If this is not the case, the shin guard was probably fitted too loosely or too tightly, or is the wrong size.
