Frequently Asked Questions
How do I keep my shin pads from slipping during a match?
A shin guard stay sleeve holds the pad in position under the sock without tape. Slide the stay over the leg, position the shin pad, pull the stay up over the pad to secure, then put the sock on over both. The elasticated sleeve keeps the pad in place throughout the match.
What is a shin guard stay?
A shin guard stay is an elasticated sleeve worn over the shin pad and under the football sock to hold the pad securely in position during play. It prevents slipping, sliding and the discomfort of a pad that moves during sprints and tackles.
Do shin guard stays work better than sock tape?
Shin guard stays provide continuous, adjustable grip without adhesive and can be reused across multiple sessions. Sock tape provides strong one-time adhesion. Many players use both together for maximum security on match day.
What size shin guard stay do I need?
Shin guard stays are typically available in junior and senior sizes. Junior sizes suit youth players up to approximately Under 13. Senior sizes suit older youth and adult players. Check sizing on the product packaging.
Can I wash a shin guard stay?
Yes. Rinse the shin guard stay with clean water after use and allow to air dry. Do not tumble dry or machine wash, as this can degrade the elasticated material over time.
