HeroElite™ Shin Guards

To ensure the best fit, we recommend measuring the circumference of your upper calf (below the knee) and lower calf (above the ankle), as these measurements determine the correct size.

Then simply select your size using our size finder tool on the HeroElite™ product page before ordering.

If you're unsure, feel free to contact us and we’ll gladly help you find the perfect fit.

There is no universal official certification for shin guards, as the final decision always rests with the referee.

HeroElite™ shin guards are regularly used in official matches around the world and are consistently accepted without issues. To date, none of our customers have ever reported a refusal from a referee.

They meet the standard size and protection requirements expected for competitive play.

For players who want to protect not only their shins but also their ankles, we offer two options.

You can add ankle protectors to your HeroElite™ shin guards for full lower-leg protection. These are available as a bundle for a complete setup.

Alternatively, our HeroComplete™ shin guards feature integrated ankle protection in a single all-in-one product.

This model protects the shin, ankle area, malleolus, and the outer side of the leg for maximum coverage and confidence on the pitch.

HeroElite™ – Maximum comfort and freedom of movement
Ideal for young players, regular training, and anyone who prefers lightweight protection.

HeroComplete™ – Full protection for shin and ankle areas
Ideal for injury prevention, sensitive ankles, physical play, and players needing maximum protection.

HeroExtreme™ – Semi-rigid shell for stronger impact protection
Especially suitable for adult players, competitive matches, and high-intensity physical play.

HeroShiny™ – Ultra-light minimalist protection
Ideal for players who prefer minimal protection, maximum lightness, and a premium, distinctive look.

One of the great advantages of our shin guards is that they are machine-washable and very easy to maintain.

You can wash them by hand or in the washing machine using a cold cycle (max. 20 °C) on a delicate setting.
For extra protection, we recommend placing them in a laundry bag before machine washing.

Avoid tumble drying, high-speed spinning, or any direct heat source.
Simply let them air dry to preserve their elasticity and long-term performance.

Thanks to the breathable nylon material, they dry quickly and do not retain odors.

HeroElite™ shin guards are designed to be worn under your football socks, just like traditional shin guards.

Their ultra-breathable, moisture-wicking fabric prevents heat buildup and keeps your legs dry and comfortable, even during intense play.

They can also be worn without socks on top if preferred.

All HeroProtect™ products are designed for both youth and adult players.

We offer a wide range of sizes to fit kids, teenagers, adults, and competitive players.

To ensure the best fit, we recommend selecting your size using the size guide on each product page before ordering.

HeroElite™ shin guards are designed for football but can also be used for any sport that requires shin protection.

Their versatile design makes them suitable for activities where shin impacts or contact may occur.

However, we recommend checking with your coach or club to ensure they meet the specific requirements of your sport.
