Whether you're a league player or you just play footbal for fun, protecting yourself from injury is vital. That's why football shin pads are an important part of your kit. The shin bone lies just under the skin and is not protected by any surrounding muscles, so it is very susceptible to injury. Shin injuries can be extremely painful, so protecting them from opposing players football studs is key.

IMPORTANCE OF FOOTBALL SHIN PADS

If you've ever been on the end of a bad tackle without football shin guards, you will be more than aware of how important they can be at preventing injury. Football bootswith studs and even moulded soles can really hurt if applied to a shin with the force of a tackle, so protecting them is important to ensure you stay injury-free. Shin pads are worn all the way through the footballing hierarchy, from junior Sunday league games to the professional game. In many leagues and competitive games they are mandatory, meaning investing in a good pair of shin pads will allow you to play week in week out without worry. And if you take football seriously, we have Adidas professional football shin pads which can be worn inside yourfootball socks.

SHIN PADS WITH ANKLE PROTECTION

Shin pads are no longer the big, bulky pieces of plastic they once were. The advances in technology has meant they are now sleek, light creations that you hardly notice wearing. They come with straps or without, some of them even come with sock-like bands that you insert the shin pad into to make them more comfortable to wear. And for enhanced shin and ankle protection, you should look for pads with a (detachable) ankle strap with an elastic band fastener for a secure fit.

At Decathlon, we have a great range of men's shin pads and women's shin pads, as well as girls and boys shin pads. And from all the top brands in football, including Puma and Adidas shin pads, and also our own brand Kipsta shin pads. Browse our range of adults and children's shin pads, and complete the look with our football shirtsandfootball shorts too.
