Almost every single player has pretty clear the equipment that fulfils his needs. When they out there searching for boots they know what they want, it also happens with the clothing that will make them feel more comfortable. But there's an element, that all player must use in the game, and is always creating problems to some players: the Shin guards. 2015 is the year when Spain receives, thank to Soloporteros, the SAK Project, a new brand that is going to solve those issues by brining a new concept when it comes to chosing shing guards: leg diameter

But, what does SAK stand for? Safety Against Kicking so it's very clear what they're working on: to be a specialist on players protection.

In Soloporteros weve decided to add the MORPH model to our stock. Aproduct that has been released after several development years, testing and improving with the help of professional football players from the best teams in the world like Real Madrid CF, Chelsea FC, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Juventus FC, FC Zenit St. Petersburg, FC Porto, Valencia, Benfica, Sporting Lisbon, and a lot more.

SAK's development work has proved that the low end shin guards that so many players are using are not providing a top level protection and this makes for a fake sensation of safety with low quality and cheap materials. The other option are the carbon fiber shin guars, highly resistant but very stiff and the fit is not the most comfortable for the football player. And this is the reason why SAKPROJECT started to develop these revolutionary shin guards.

Produced with high quality material and the latest production techniques, the SAK shin guards are light and flexible as well as tough and highly resistant against impacts. The SAK shin guards are the result of a group of elite specialists such as: professional footbal clubs, sports doctors and technological researchers.

- Exterior protective polymer art layer used in the military and aerospace industries.

Inner cushioned layer with high impact energy absorption capacity.

European Certification EN 13061, with impact tests and skin compatibility.

But what really make these SAK shing guar different to the rest is the shape. Until now we were used to choose our protections between different size. A bigger or a smaller size protection for the tibia. And SAK offers tha with 3 different sizes: M, L, or XL. Till here every thing is the same as other brands

But the big revolution by SAK is that they scaned the leg perimeter of tuns of football players and the've jumped to the conclusion that there are 3 types of legs:

  • Thin less than 34 cm leg perimeter. Design for thin muscle and bones structure where other shin guards would be too big creating empty spaces. 
  • Regular between 35 y 40 cm leg perimeter. Designed for a medium leg perimeter where other shin guards can feel too tight. Optimum fit with flexible and tough materials.
  • Wide more than 40 cm leg perimeter. Design for wider leg perimeters where the other sin guards will not offer a comfortable fit. Forget about feeling uncomfortable.

The result is pretty obviuos and completely different comparing to the rest of shin guards outthere in the market:

  • Flexible material, adapts to the leg moves.
  • Thin.
  • Seamless.
  • Interns textile layer for extra comfort.
