Price facts

SkiGuard Pro is a pair of compressive shin sleeves with a built-in gel core, worn over ski socks to cushion the shin against boot pressure. The polyester-nylon sleeve conforms to the leg and the gel spreads impact instead of concentrating it, at about 2 oz per pair. It suits skiers who get bruises, chafing or shin bang from stiff boots and want padding without bulk. Against foam inserts and hard plastic shin guards, it is lighter and stays put better, but it adds warmth and must go over socks to work as intended.

SkiGuard Pro is a pair of shin guards made for skiers. Each one is a soft, compressive sleeve with a built-in gel core that adapts to the leg. It is designed to help prevent bruises, chafing and shin pain caused by ski boots.
The gel padding is lightweight, flexible and shock-absorbing. It responds to pressure from the boots, spreads the impact evenly and returns to its shape after use. The sleeve is made from a blend of polyester and nylon. The materials are breathable and sweat-wicking, and they help keep the legs warm on cold days.
The guards are worn over ski socks, not directly on the skin. This gives a better fit and improved moisture management. They are washable and quick-drying.
