Advanced Performance Technology

Ultra-Lightweight — Only 22 g
Speed matters. Agility matters. Every gram matters.
At just 22 grams per shin guard, the CARBON GUARD EVO minimises unnecessary weight, allowing players to accelerate faster, change direction more freely, and maintain complete freedom of movement throughout the match.

No heavy-leg sensation. No performance compromise.

Advanced Carbon Fibre & Kevlar® Construction
The hybrid composite structure combines premium carbon fibre with Kevlar® reinforcement to create an exceptionally rigid, lightweight, and impact-resistant protective shell.
This advanced material system delivers an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio, providing confidence and protection when every challenge matters.

High-Density Impact Absorption
The interior features a premium high-density memory foam backing that acts as an effective impact-absorbing layer.
By helping to absorb and disperse impact forces, it enhances comfort while maintaining excellent protection during tackles, blocks, and physical contact.

Distinctive EVO Carbon Design
The CARBON GUARD EVO features a heavier-weight carbon fibre weave with a more pronounced fibre structure, creating a deeper three-dimensional appearance and a striking technical aesthetic.
The result is a bold, unmistakable carbon fibre look that reflects the advanced engineering behind the product and makes a clear statement about your standards for performance and quality.

Handmade in the Czech Republic
Every pair is individually handcrafted in the Czech Republic using a meticulous composite lay-up and lamination process.
This specialist manufacturing approach ensures maximum structural integrity, exceptional quality, and precise fibre placement in every shin guard.

It is the perfect choice for ambitious young footballers and performance-driven players who want to stand out with a distinctive carbon fibre aesthetic, demand uncompromising functionality, and seek to reduce equipment weight to an absolute minimum.

Throughout my career, I have tried many different types of shin guards.
Thanks to the carbon material, PROLEGGERA shin guards are extremely lightweight, fit perfectly, and during play I hardly notice them at all.

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 does the Carbon Guard EVO model differ from the standard version?

The key difference lies in the visual design of the outer layer, which features a fabric with wider carbon fibers. This gives the EVO guards a modern, highly technical appearance, while the internal carbon–Kevlar composite structure remains just as uncompromising as in other professional ProLeggera models.
The Kevlar/carbon shell is only 1 mm thick and is paired with 6 mm of internal shock-absorbing foam. The hybrid composite construction ensures excellent structural strength and stiffness while maintaining a minimal profile that does not interfere on the shin.

2.  What are the technical specifications of the EVO version, and are these football shin guards suitable for children?

Yes. The size S model is specifically designed for children, junior players, and anyone who prefers a minimalist feel (ideally for heights between 140–160 cm).

Despite the more pronounced fabric texture, the EVO model maintains an extremely low weight of approximately 20 g (size S) and a minimal overall thickness. The Kevlar/carbon shell is only 1 mm thick, while the inner shock-absorbing foam measures 6 mm.

Using wider fiber bundles does not affect the shin guard's flexibility or adaptability in any way — thanks to the inner memory foam, it fits perfectly to the shin and feels completely natural during play.

3. Who is the EVO design line intended for?

The EVO range is designed for footballers who want to stand out and prefer a progressive, industrial carbon aesthetic. It is an ideal choice for players seeking a combination of traditional Czech craftsmanship and the latest trends in composite materials—where aesthetics play an equally important role as performance and functionality.
