A junior squad's custom red shin pads, each with a player's name and number
For Parents

MADE FOR
YOUNG PLAYERS.

  • Their name on it. Name, number and flag on every pair — no more mix-ups in the kit bag, and pads they actually want to wear.
  • Light and protective. A carbon fibre shell that's lighter than moulded plastic, with soft EVA foam inside.
  • Which size? Measure from two fingers below the knee to two fingers above the ankle and pick the biggest pad that fits. Many young players choose Large for more coverage. Size guide →
  • The gift with their name on. Design it together in 3D — and if anything's wrong, our Perfect Pair Promise means we remake it free.

"Excellent service and a great end product. My son and nephew are in love with their Shinnies. It has helped with their speed, ball control, first touches and overall performance on the field. The shinpads are extremely light and comfortable. Not to mention affordable. Thank you Bryn and the team."

"The most unbelievable service received from Bryn at Strapzy's Shinnies. So professional! My son is obsessed with his customised shin guards! The process was super easy and quick delivery! I have even bought vouchers from Strapzy's Shinnies to give as birthday presents, the kids love, best present! Will definitely be ordering more!"

"I recently purchased carbon fiber shin guards from Strapzy's Shinnies and I couldn't be happier with my decision. The quality and craftsmanship is exceptional. These shin guards are not only incredibly protective but also incredibly stylish. They fit snugly and comfortably, providing the perfect balance of protection and flexibility. I highly recommend these shin guards to anyone serious about their football."
