We all know the Tape Design brand for its football socks, socks with grip that are really good and that we have seen many professional footballers use.
But now the brand presents us with an alternative in the form of shin guards that are fully adaptable to our legs, very thin and very light, and all without the need for moulds or anything unusual. How do they do it?
When we receive our pack of Td shin guards, we see a sheet of synthetic material that we can cut to the exact length we want. Once this is done, we will have to put our shin guards in the oven (yes, in the oven), at a very low temperature so that the sheet softens enough.
After about 5-6 minutes, remove the shin guards (it is important to cover them with baking paper) and, after waiting for them to cool down a little, place them on your leg, pressing them towards you so that they take the shape of your leg and adapt to all its irregularities.
After a few minutes, we will see how the material gradually hardens until our shin guard is finally ready to use. It is an extremely thin shin guard that will feel like a second skin. We are talking about a thickness of around 1 millimetre and a weight of just 38 grams, which is absolutely incredible.
Of course, and we want to make this clear, the protection will not be the same as with other types of shin guards from other brands, as on this occasion we are seeking maximum adaptability to our leg.
And that concludes our review of a very special product that is truly unique. If you are someone who does not like wearing shin guards, this is definitely the product for you, as you will hardly notice you are wearing them. Obviously, you will not have a great deal of protection, but in terms of both aesthetics and comfort, these Tape Design shin guards are simply unique.
