    Pro Footballers wear only the best and latest boots, but what about shin guards! Like them or not, you have to wear them, and most pros wear fully custom ones for maximum protection, while also being lightweight and minimal. But some choose to wear Nike J Guards, the World's Worst Shin Guards! How bad are these $10 shin guards and why do some pros still wear them? Let's find out!

    The shin guards are made of carbon fiber with the name, number and flag in the middle.

    My J guards are fine, I tried flexing them like you did but was unable so either they toughen up over time or they changed the plastic. From my experience they work fine, the only complaint I have is they slide around pretty easily, but since I got new socks I don't have that problem anymore.

  • @sebastianperez7222

    I have worn a lot of different mid range price shinguards which should be better than the J guards and I keep coming back to the J guards because I feel they are more protective because whenever I got hit in the multiple shinguards I’ve worn the ones I have felt the least amount of impact(actually
    feeling the hit) is the j guards

    I just bought them because they are light and that so I can have a better performance while I’m playing. But as he said it does not give much protection which means there is a higher chance of injury. I am most likely to wear them in training instead of match’s just because I don’t want heavy shin guards on me.

    I believe its very pliable because it acts like a crumple zone so basically it absorbs impact rather than repelling it back, which is more important in preventing injuries especially in bones like the shin that is very rigid to begin with yet has no way of distributing any perpendicular forces not like your feet knees hips ribs spine etc

    • @Soccerreviewsforyou
      @Soccerreviewsforyou  Před 6 lety +1

      This is nothing like that. There's no impact absorption tech here. Just flimsy plastic and thin, cheap foam. They work as shin guards and offer some protection for sure, but there are certainly way more protective shin guards out there.

    How does bending mean it offers no protection? The plastic and foam are still in tact and are enough to protect against studs

    I used to get the XS Adidas F50 shin guards and rip the foam off so it’s just a thin piece of plastic that was small enough to wrap my shin bone
    Best ones if you hate how shin guards feel

    I got these a couple years ago and they really absorb all the sweat and smell really bad. But ive been kicked a couple times in my shin and i didnt feel a thing.

    ill never forget when i was a kid after a columbus crew mls game. i went to go get an autograph and jeff cunningham(i think) pulled one of those green paper gatorade cups out his sock and autographed it lol. i guess protection wasnt a priority for him

  • @yourordinarytwathere8789

    I know these are bad but the ventilation holes are quite nice since my shins sweat a lot tbh

    Are the mitre shinguards that you bought at walmart better than those?

      They're more protective. I don't think these are bad if protection is not a priority for you. If it is, than these are not a great option.

    I have seen guys wearing regular socks, insoles of boots or pieces of a fucking yoga matt cut in a shape of shinguard so this j guard looks like a huge improvement to me.

    If you don’t like wearing shin guards you should wear these to pass the “shin guard” rule.

    The lighter the better, its like you're not even wearing them because alot of people practice and train without guard's.
