Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
- Identify Left and Right: Most shinguards are anatomically shaped; ensure you have the correct guard for each leg.
- Position the Guard: Slide the shinguard down your leg, positioning the main protective plate over your shin bone. The integrated ankle guard should wrap comfortably around your ankle bone.
- Secure the Loop: If applicable, thread your foot through the foot loop to help anchor the shinguard in place.
- Fasten the Strap: Utilize the strap fastening to secure the shinguard tightly around your calf. Ensure it is snug but not uncomfortably tight, allowing for proper blood circulation and movement. Adjust until the shinguard feels stable and won't shift during activity.
Compatibility
These shinguards are primarily designed for sports requiring shin and ankle protection, such as:
- Soccer (Football)
- Field Hockey
- Martial Arts training
- Rugby (non-contact drills or less intense play)
They are suitable for both training and competitive play across various age groups, provided the correct size is chosen (Info needed: Sizing guidance for specific leg measurements).
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and effectiveness of your Sondico Ankle Shinguards:
- Hand Wash Only: After use, gently hand wash the shinguards using mild soap and cool water.
- Air Dry: Do not machine dry. Allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Do Not Iron: Ironing can damage the material composition and protective properties.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleach can degrade the fabric and padding. Avoid using any harsh chemicals.
