Questions
What is the difference between Genuine Leather and Semi Leather?
Genuine Leather is full-grain leather, offering superior durability, feel, and longevity. Semi Leather is a synthetic material designed to mimic leather, providing a more affordable option with good performance but generally less durability over time.
Are these shin guards suitable for full-contact sparring?
They are suitable for most sparring scenarios, especially technical and light-to-medium contact. For heavy, full-power sparring, some practitioners may prefer shin guards with more substantial padding.
How do I clean these shin guards?
Wipe them down with a damp cloth after each use. For genuine leather, a leather conditioner can be used periodically. For semi-leather, avoid harsh chemicals. Ensure they are fully air-dried before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
Do these shin guards run true to size?
Based on their design for a secure fit, most users find them true to size. Refer to the size chart for specific measurements, but generally, they are designed to fit snugly to prevent shifting during training.
