Questions
How do I choose the right size for my child?
Select 'Kids' for ages 5-10 years, and 'Junior' for ages 10-15 years or up to 5'5" in height. If your child is on the cusp or growing rapidly, consider the 'Junior' size for longer use.
Are these shinguards suitable for sparring?
Yes, the triple-layer high-density latex foam and comprehensive coverage make these shinguards suitable for youth sparring and training, offering significant protection.
How should I clean and care for these shinguards?
Wipe down the synthetic leather exterior and non-slip lining with a damp cloth after each use. Allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heat, to prevent odor and material degradation. Do not machine wash or submerge in water.
Are these shinguards genuinely made in Thailand?
Yes, these Sandee shinguards are 100% hand-crafted in Thailand, ensuring authentic construction and quality consistent with traditional Muay Thai equipment.
Will the full foot cover restrict movement?
The full foot cover is designed for maximum protection. While it offers excellent coverage, some users may find it slightly more restrictive than open-foot designs. This is a trade-off for enhanced safety.
