The CCM Next Shin Guard is an amazing choice for hockey's next generation, whether it's a brand-new skater or a seasoned recreational player looking for lightweight and affordable protection. Players will instantly fall in love with its anatomical fit for immediate out-of-the-box comfort and connected feel against the leg.Molded plastic from top to bottom help to disperse impact energy away from the leg from falls to the ice or contact with a stick or puck. Both the knee and shin caps offer added breathability with ventilation ports, which help to keep the legs cooler during the game. A large calf strap has an even larger Velcro landing pad to give players a truly dialed-in fit around the leg. Internally, a sublimated PE foam liner once again elevates comfort and is removable so players can reduce drying times and give it a wash between games.
