Questions & Answers
This listing's guard stays are all sold as a 'one pack' with two guard stays. The total contents of this item are two single guard stays and one Nike plastic packaging; the wording on the listing is confusing, and I hope Amazon can fix it so that customers can understand it.
It's Royal Blue in color.
They're stretchy and have velcro to keep them in place.
I'm not sure about the measurements, but my son, who plays college soccer, wears these, so they're definitely adult-sized.
Selected User Reviews For Nike Guard Stay II
The option "Two Pack" is a ruse. And that is something I do not appreciate. Two shin guard straps are included in one package, as is to be expected. When a person sees a "Two Pack" option alongside a "One Pack" option, they should be suspicious. Also available for under $7 is a "One Size" option. It is common for buyers to assume that they will receive two packs of TWO shin guard straps. A single shin guard strap is not something that many people look for.
There are two types of packs available: one pack and two pack. Two SEPARATE pairs are not included in the two-pack option. There are only two stay puts on this, so anything costing more than $7 is a bargain. 00 is a total rip-off. I received my package, which included $7 retail price stickers. I was charged $8 for this. I expected to get two pairs at the very least. There isn't a single satisfied client in this establishment. Don't fall for the same deception that I did!.
The product performs as it should. BUT. The marketing is dreadful and deceiving. There are only two stays in the two-pack, rather than four in the four-pack. They market these in such a way that the buyer thinks they're getting four nights and more. I'd send these back and get them from the store if it wasn't so much of a hassle.
A picky soccer referee was pleased. Over the years of playing competitive soccer, we've had a wide range of socks. We've experimented with various shin guards, straps, and stays. A ref once refused to allow the kids to wear straps because the color didn't match their uniform. We decided to buy a European uniform because we didn't think we'd be able to find the right shade of yellow that was nearly gold. These, thankfully, were satisfactory. It's a good thing, too, because we've had that ref a few times now!.
I bought these about two months ago, and I'm pretty happy with them right now. My legs are muscular, so I'm concerned about how uncomfortable they'll be if they're tightened around my Achilles. If they're worn too low, it may be an issue for some players, but I keep mine about 5 inches above the top of my foot. The velcro hasn't frayed or become as wild as cheap velcro does when used heavily, and it's strong yet rigid. To me, these are far superior to sleeves because I can quickly slip my shinnies on and off. My only recommendation for those considering this product is to use a high-quality sock, because if they're too loose and lack enough compression, they'll slide and you'll be adjusting them more than you'd like. Another thing that may be confusing to buyers is the product description; it says a 2 pack, which means only 2 guard stays, but it can mislead you into thinking you're getting 4 guard stays when you're only getting 2. Advantages: br>br> good quality, great elasticity, faster than sleeves, adjustable, reasonable price, and a variety of colors br>br>Contrary to popular belief, there are a number of disadvantages to using this product. Package description: can slide with loose-fitting socks, causes Achilles irritation. br>br>Overall, I would strongly recommend this product to anyone who is on the fence about it; I've always been curious about how well they work and how comfortable they are. I play quite a bit and always wear these, knowing that I won't be running around with flopping shinnies or worrying about losing one in a challenge. I am pleased with my purchase; I have three pairs of these, and for the price, I am satisfied; I hope this review is helpful to some of you.
These stays are extremely comfortable on my legs. I'm just under 6 feet tall and weigh 170 pounds, with a calf that measures slightly more than 14 inches wide at its widest point. I have the Adidas stays as well, and they are comfortable, but I prefer the Nike ones because they are Velcro and can be worn after your shoes are on.
Although I ordered a "2 pack," I only received one set of guard stays. Because a regular Nike guard stay pack costs $7 and contains TWO guard stays, I assumed the "2pack" would cost $12 and include TWO SETS. The guard stays came with the packaging already cut open, as shown in my photo. I'm not sure why, because, as I previously stated, a standard pack of guard stays already comes in a pair. The guard stays themselves appear to be in good condition and will serve their purpose, but I would recommend going to a store rather than ordering from this fraudulent listing!.
My children enjoy playing soccer with these. They don't need to wear shin guard sleeves because it keeps the shin guards in place. After a game, it's easier to take these off and remove the shin guards (you don't have to take off your shoes). For keeping shin guards in place, this is a better option than others.
