Specification
Shin and instep guards cover the shin from just below the knee down over the top of the foot, for kicking and checking kicks in sparring. They come in two styles: a sock style that slips on like a sleeve, and a strap style held by hook-and-loop straps behind the calf. We make them to your specification, style, shell, padding, straps, colours and logo, and you approve a sample pair before bulk.
Who orders them
Shin guards for sparring and kicking drills, in the gym's colours and sized S to XL across the membership.
Shin guards ordered alongside the gym's MMA gloves, in one colour scheme and one logo treatment.
A shin guard for your range, with your logo on the shin, your wordmark on the straps and your labels inside.
Options you choose
Every choice is set on your mockup, with as many changes as you need, and confirmed on a physical sample before bulk.
A sock style that slips on like a sleeve, or a strap style with hook-and-loop straps behind the calf.
Genuine leather for a premium guard, microfibre for long life in shared gym stock, or PU for entry-level and youth guards that wipe clean.
The padding over the shin and the instep cover is set on your sample, so you can try it on a kick before bulk.
Hook-and-loop straps on strap-style guards, in a colour that can carry your wordmark, fitted on the sample.
Shell, trim and strap colours matched to your gloves and fightwear on the sample. Each colourway needs at least 25.
Your logo on the shin and your wordmark on the straps, by DTF, heat transfer or screen print. Labels are printed, not woven.
Choosing and using
A sock-style guard slips on like a sleeve, with the padding sewn to a stretch backing, so it sits close to the leg and moves with it. A strap-style guard is held by hook-and-loop straps behind the calf, so the fit can be adjusted and the guard goes on and off quickly between rounds.
Each style is its own product with its own patterns, so each needs its own minimum. Both are confirmed on your sample before bulk.
Quick guide
Shin guards are sized by the wearer's height, which sets the shin length, from just below the knee, and the instep length over the top of the foot. S and M are recommended for juniors up to 14 years old.

A brand we make for
“What arrived matched what we approved.”
We sell boxing, MMA and strength gear under the Athlomax name, so consistency matters more to us than anything. Sparwright made our wrist wraps, knee wraps, lifting straps, boxing gloves, MMA gloves and shin guards. We saw a mockup first, then a physical sample before committing to bulk. What arrived matched what we approved. Communication was straightforward despite the time difference. We've since reordered.
