Fairtex Muay Thai Shin Guards SP7 Black Shin Protection for Muay Thia MMA K1

These shinguards have been in my possession for a few months. Excellent craftsmanship. It absorbs the impact well and is far less bulky and heavy than I anticipated. The instep guard is well-made and stays in place while you train. The bands behind your heels in the instep are too loose and inconsistent, which is the most serious issue I'm having. One band is a little tighter than the other, but they're both a little loose. During training, your instep would frequently come off your heel, causing you to step on a loose band, causing your instep to slide all over the place. I solved the problem by going to a shoe store and having the bands changed and made extremely tight. However, it was a $20 outlay for me.

These things do what they're supposed to do in terms of overall protection, namely, preventing shin on shin or shin on knee contact. I'll go over some of the advantages and disadvantages so you can decide whether or not this is right for you. My purpose is to spar in Muay Thai.
PROS:
- Rugged, effective protection for the shin, instep, and anklebr>- br>br>PROS: Removable instep (a big plus if you ever want to spar in boxing shoes, which I do occasionally)br>br>CONS:
- When they get sweaty, they tend to slide around a little, but I have yet to find one that doesn't. br>- This is going to leave a huge blister on the front of your ankle! The velcro flap has a slight wrinkle that you can use to attach or detach it. Wearing an ankle sleeve will prevent you from getting a blister. br>br>So far, they've held up well and look good. If you don't want your leg to look like Anderson Silva's, get these or something similar if you don't need the "twister," aka removable instep guard.

Pads are fantastic. Leg blocks, strikes, sparring, and pad work are all examples of how you can use them. a great deal more I abused these pads, and they abused them even more, and they're still in good shape and can withstand a lot of punishment. When I'm not using them, my son plays a few rounds with them. With the adjustable bands, the size is perfect - It's a lot more comfortable than the elastic versions. They tend to slip if not properly secured, so I added a brace for added support and to keep them in place (a small price to pay for such excellent quality). I feel like I can go longer when I do leg conditioning and long, heavy kicking drills, and I have little to no soreness after hundreds of leg strikes. Fairtex, in my opinion, makes excellent clothing that fits larger people better than competing brands. This item and brand come highly recommended by me.

Because they are bulky, they would be a good choice for solely defending kicks and sweeps. I didn't care for them because the extra material made quick movement difficult and made it difficult to strike with my foot straight. I returned mine for a lighter pad because it was a better fit for me.

They began to peel after only a few months of use.

This concludes the discussion. I had cheap Century shin guards, and these are a huge improvement. These do, in fact, protect. Materials and construction are of high quality. Foot coverage is excellent, movement is unrestricted, and there is ample padding for sparring. The straps are snug and secure. My shins and feet are giddy with joy.

Developed. The size is correct, but the shinguards themselves are too bulky, especially when performing quick movements. In addition, while the detachable shin protector appeared to be useful in theory, it actually takes a lot longer to put on than standard one-piece shin guards. In addition, I believe that the benefit of a few centimeters of protection up or down your foot is insignificant. To make matters worse, before you can secure the shin guards, you must first insert the elastic strap through a thin square hole.

Shin guards are fantastic. Fairtex's padding is thick and compact, just like their gloves, and provides the ideal balance of protection and comfort.
