Shin guards that prevent and relieve shin pain during sports activities (skiing, snowboarding, rollerblading…).
Do shin pains hinder your performance during your sports sessions? Try the EPITACT® ski shin guards!
These shin guards prevent and relieve warmth and pain on the shins in the pressure areas of high-top shoes.
They are therefore very effective in shoes used for sliding sports (skiing, snowboarding, hockey, rollerblading, skating, mountaineering…).
The effectiveness of the shin guards relies on EPITELIUMTACT 03, a cushioning silicone gel designed to reduce friction and pressure on the skin.
Self-adhesive, it ensures optimal hold of the guards throughout the activity. These shin guards are very thin (2 mm); they cause no discomfort and are forgotten in all types of high-top shoes.
The ski shin guards are hand washable (without scrubbing) with water and soap. Allow to air dry. Discard and replace the device as soon as cracks appear in the gel or the fabric degrades.
Frequently Asked Questions

The ski shin guards can withstand about thirty washes without their properties being altered. It is recommended to wash them after each use to maintain their self-adhesive power by removing any dust and impurities. By cleaning their surface, you restore their initial sticky properties.
Yes, silicone shin guards can be used, for example, while hiking to relieve warmth on the shoulders caused by backpack straps.
