Shin and Instep Guards

Kicking is not optional in Krav Maga. Neither is having a partner who trusts you.

Without shin protection, you pull your kicks and your partner flinches. These cover the shin bone and the top of your foot, the two places that take almost every bit of contact in a kicking drill, so both of you can work at real speed.

• You stop pulling your kicks. Protection on both sides means you can throw with real intent and your partner can hold the pad without bracing for it.
• Shin and instep both covered. The top of the foot is where most students get hurt first, and this guard covers it.
• Padding disperses the blow. Multi-panel foam spreads high-impact contact instead of transferring it straight into the bone.
• They stay put. Elastic straps with quick-adjust closures keep the guard in place while you move, turn, and reset.
• Certified protection. Tested and certified to recognized combat sport safety standards, so you know what you are wearing.
