Match Day™ Sock Sleeves

Will they stay up during games?

Yes. The stretchable sleeve with the grip bands holds the shin gaurds flat against the shin on its own, so there's nothing to tape, strap, or pull back up at halftime.

How well does it protect?

Light doesn't mean flimsy. The EVA foam stiffens on impact to absorb the hits, so it stays light while they run and firm when hit. It covers the whole front of the shin, not just a small patch.

What if my kid won't wear them?

If your kid still won't wear them, send them back within 99 days and we'll refund you.

How do I wash them?

Match Day gear is made to last and built to take the same beating as any gear on the field. To get the most life out of them, we recommend washing them with warm water on a delicate cycle and let them air dry.

Really happy with these shin guards. They work well and my kid loves them!

@John
@John ★★★★★

We tried everything and nothing worked. These guards actually helped her and she loves them. We almost had to give up soccer because she refused to wear traditional shin guards. Super happy with these

Comfy, they don't slide down, and she puts them on without a fight. Ordering another pair for spring

Wish we'd found these years ago. Love them

Gear they actually want to wear.

Hard shells are stiff, itchy, and heavy, so kids pull them off the second the whistle blows. Match Day™ gear is made with an EVA foam pad so your kid stays just as protected as traditional gear.

Light enough to run in, built to protect.

The EVA foam stays soft and flexible while your kid runs, then compresses and stiffens on impact to absorb the hit. That's why they can sprint and cut without the clunky drag of a hard shell

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ's

Are these allowed in games?

Yes. Match Day guards meet necessary standards for match play, so they're good for league games, tournaments and practice.

Are they really protective if they're this light?

Yes. Our proprietary EVA foam firms up on contact to absorb the hit, and at just 1 oz per guard, there's no bulk to fight.

Can my kid put them on by themselves?

Yes. They slide on like a sock, so there are no straps to fasten and no fiddly pieces to line up before the game.

Are they okay for sensitive skin?

Yes. The sleeve is soft and skin-friendly with no hard edges, so it won't dig in or rub the way plastic guards can.

Should I buy two pairs?

It's handy for laundry days. One pair goes in the wash while the other is ready for the next game, and the 2-pair bundle saves you money too.

Who made Match Day?

We're soccer parents too. We had the same fight at the front door every game day, so we set out to make a guard kids would put on without a fight, with no trade-off on protection. That's the Match Day™ Elite: a soft sleeve with a foam pad that covers the whole shin.

How long will they last?

Match Day guards are built to take a beating game after game. Each pair of guards should last multiple seasons. To get the most life out of them, wash them on warm with the delicate cycle and let them air dry.

What if they don't work out?

Send it back. Full refund. No questions. That is our 99 day guarantee and we mean it completely. But honestly — most kids that switch never want to go back to traditional guards!
