* Weight & Manufacturing Details: The stated weight of 30 g refers to a single shin guard. As each piece is produced using a hand-layering and lamination process of composite fibers, individual units may vary by approximately ± 1–3 g. This natural variation is a direct result of the artisanal manufacturing process, which allows us to achieve exceptional strength while maintaining an ultra-lightweight design.

The PROLEGGERA SILVER GUARD carbon shin guards combine cutting-edge technology, sleek design, and an ultra-lightweight construction.

The outer layer made from aluminum-infused fiberglass gives the guards their signature "Silver Carbon" look, while the inner layers of carbon and kevlar fabric provide outstanding strength and stability.

A soft foam lining ensures maximum comfort and a natural fit to your leg throughout the game.

Each pair is handcrafted in small batches in the Czech Republic, making every piece a true original — meticulously built with attention to detail and quality.

FAQ

Interested in the technical background of our carbon–Kevlar products? Below you'll find answers to the most frequently asked questions from players transitioning to professional-grade composite equipment 

1. How is the unique silver effect created?

The ProLeggera Silver Guard model features a thin outer layer made from special glass fibers infused with aluminum. This combination creates a distinctive metallic, carbon-style twill appearance, which is an integral part of the guard's hybrid Kevlar/carbon construction.
The Kevlar/carbon shell is just 1 mm thick and is paired with 6 mm of internal shock-absorbing foam. The hybrid composite structure delivers high structural strength and stiffness while maintaining a minimal profile of 18 × 9 cm, ensuring the guards remain unobtrusive and discreet on the shin.

2. Why are Silver Guard shin guards so light, and how does this affect my performance?

The secret behind their extremely low weight—just 30 g in size L—lies in the use of a hybrid carbon–Kevlar sandwich structure. Unlike heavy plastic shin guards, you are barely aware of Silver Guard during play.
Reducing load on the shin minimizes muscle fatigue and allows you to maintain maximum agility, speed, and ball feel right through to the final minute of the match. 

3. Are Silver Guard shin guards anatomically shaped, and will they fit properly?

Yes. The shape of the guards is based on a detailed ergonomic analysis of the shin bone. They are designed in an asymmetrical left/right configuration to precisely follow the natural curvature of the leg without protruding.
Thanks to the ultra-thin profile and internal memory foam, the guards sit securely under the sock and stay perfectly in place throughout the game.
