FAQ
Are the Matchday Guards suitable for children?
Yes. The Matchday Guards are suitable for both youth and adult players.
Most of our customers are parents buying for academy and youth players, but the guards are built to perform at all levels — from grassroots to senior match play.
Are they washable?
Yes! We recommend hand washing with warm water and mild soap or using a gentle cold cycle. Air dry only. Avoid tumble drying to maintain shape and performance materials.
Are they approved for match play?
Yes! The Matchday Guards are designed to meet standard requirements for shin protection during both training and match play.
What size should I choose?
We recommend choosing your size based on our size chart above (listed next to the "Description"-tab).
If you're between sizes, choose the larger size for more comfort. A secure fit is essential for optimal protection.
Do I wear socks over them?
Yes. The Matchday Guards are worn under your socks, just like traditional shin guards. The breathable, lightweight materials prevent overheating and irritation — so you won’t feel bulky or restricted.
Do they stay in place during matches?
Yes. The ergonomic shape and compression sleeve design keep the guards locked in throughout the game. No slipping. No constant adjusting. Just focus on your performance.
How protective are they compared to traditional shin guards?
The Matchday Guards use impact-reactive EVA foam that stays flexible while you move and firms up on impact.
They provide serious protection without the bulk of traditional hard-shell guards — giving you more mobility and a cleaner feel on the pitch.
