They offer the best value for money for beginners and recreational users, with shock-absorbing foam padding and a sturdy velcro and elastic foot attachment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese shin guards are designed for children taking their first steps in combat sports or who have already built up some experience. They are ideal for technique training, pad work, kick drills and controlled sparring sessions. The lightweight construction and anatomical fit ensure that young athletes can fully focus on learning new techniques without being restricted in their freedom of movement. For intensive competition sparring sessions or higher-level competitions, we recommend shin guards with thicker padding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Durable synthetic leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePadding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shock-absorbing foam padding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Velcro closure with elastic foot attachment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anatomically shaped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e S, M and L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kickboxing, Muay Thai and MMA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eElevate Prime versus more expensive kids shin guards\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe main difference is in the thickness of the padding and the material. More expensive models often use genuine leather and have thicker, multi-layer foam padding that provides more protection during heavy sparring. The Elevate Prime uses synthetic leather and a standard shock-absorbing foam layer, which is sufficient for training and controlled sparring but less suitable for intensive competition situations. For beginner and recreational young fighters, the Prime offers the best balance between protection, comfort and price. The anatomical fit and lightweight design are comparable to more expensive alternatives, allowing children to experience the same freedom of movement during training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat size Elevate Prime shin guards do I need for my child?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure the length of your child's shin bone, from just below the knee to the ankle. Compare this measurement with the size chart on the product page. Note: the sizes in the chart are the dimensions of the shin guard itself, not your child's leg length. Choose a size where the shin guard covers the entire shin bone without pressing into the knee pit. If in doubt between two sizes: choose the larger size for room to grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Elevate a good choice for kids shin guards?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes, Elevate offers the best value for money for beginner and recreational young fighters. The Prime shin guards have the same anatomical fit and freedom of movement as more expensive brands, but at a lower price. The synthetic leather is durable enough for regular training and maintenance is simple. For children who are just starting out or training a few times a week, this is an excellent and affordable choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan these shin guards be used for sparring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Elevate Prime shin guards are suitable for controlled sparring sessions where children practise techniques with limited force. The shock-absorbing foam padding provides sufficient protection for technique training and light sparring. For intensive competition sparring or competitions, we recommend shin guards with thicker, multi-layer padding that can absorb more impact. Always consult with your trainer about the protection requirements for your specific training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do the shin guards stay in place during training?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of a sturdy velcro closure around the leg and an elastic foot band provides double attachment. You fasten the velcro around the shin and calf, while the elastic band runs under the foot for extra stability. The anatomical fit also helps: the shin guard follows the natural shape of the lower leg, so it is less likely to shift during kicks and movements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I maintain synthetic leather shin guards?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the shin guards after each training session with a damp cloth to remove sweat and dirt. Let them air and dry completely in a well-ventilated place, not in a closed bag. Store them in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as radiators. Synthetic leather is low-maintenance and does not need to be oiled, but regular cleaning will significantly extend the lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elevate","offers":[{"title":"S","offer_id":52893346496859,"sku":"ELV0044-S","price":34.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"M","offer_id":52893346529627,"sku":"ELV0044-M","price":34.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"L","offer_id":52893346562395,"sku":"ELV0044-L","price":34.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/7531\/5641\/files\/Elevate_Shinguards_Prime_Kids-11.jpg?v=1781529520","url":"https:\/\/thefightcompany.fr\/en\/products\/elevate-shin-guards-prime-kids-black","provider":"The Fight Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
