Bear GripsDeadlift Shin Guards - Breathable Gym Equipment Rope Climbing Shin Guard for Men and Women - Injury Prevention Calf Support Shin Guard Sleeves for Ultimate Shin Protection

I've done CrossFit for 7 months now and held off on buying anything like these shin guards. I couldn't climb a rope, but one day at the gym I tried and was successful. When I was done with one climb and several more attempts, my shin did burn a bit and I ended up with a scab. Since then, buying these, allows me to focus on climbing and not worrying about my shins. They can also be used for cleans, box jumps or anything else where you are concerned about your shin. I love that the the protection is there, so I don't have to think about hurting my shins. I can instead focus on the muscle groups I am supposed to be working. I feel like these run a little small. I have big calves and bought a large. You want them tight, but I feel like I'm over stretching them. Either way, they fit and do the job well! Whether you're just starting out or been working out for a while, I don't feel like you will be disappointed with these shin guards.

Stays put comfortable and protects my shins. I recomend to everyone at the gym.

So far I like them, they are sleek, comfy, and don't move around a lot. Time will tell on the durability but based on what I'm seeing I don't think that will be an issue.

Fits snug, gives good cushion and protection. The stealth hides the logo on the back of the leg.

I purchased these deadlift shinguards with some skepticism but was immediately impressed once I used them. The sizing instructions provided during the ordering process were spot on. I followed the guide, and they fit perfectly—snug without being too tight.What really stood out to me was the instant improvement in my form. With these shinguards, I was finally able to drag the bar up my shins without worrying about the aggressive knurling tearing up my legs. My form has noticeably improved, and I feel much more confident in my lifts.The stirrup design is excellent—it keeps the guards securely in place throughout my entire workout. I never had to adjust or worry about them shifting, even during my heavier sets.One thing to note is that the shin pad does trap a bit of heat, similar to wearing a thick, long sock. However, some might find this beneficial, as it can keep the calves warm and ready for action.Honestly, I can’t imagine deadlifting without these now. They’ve become an essential part of my routine, and I’d recommend them to anyone looking to protect their shins while improving their form. Five stars!

Bloody shins no more as I learn to improve my technique on deadlift, clean, snatch, etc...

I had gnarly scabs all over my shins from heavy deadlifts. The constant pulling of the knurl up my skin left some pretty nasty marks. In order to stop this I looked for shin guards. I wanted something light and thin, but tough enough to at least prevent some friction. Lo and behold BearGrips! They are tough but super comfortable. The padding is just enough that it protects you, but doesn’t feel like you duct taped couch cushions to your shin. They will stay skin tight during the workout, so anticipate hand washing these bad boys. Excellent product.

Haven’t used them for a workout yet but they fit great and feel very supportive in my lower calves/shins

I use these when I do rope climbs, they are perfect! Only need one, so I gave the other one to a friend. No left or right, so they are great!Easily washable in the machine! Highly recommend them!

You’d expect better quality food such a high price. But they do their job

The shin guards work great! They are exactly what I needed. I use them for sumo deadlifts and they protect my legs well and stay up throughout the set. The delivery was quick and the seller was wonderful to deal with. Highly recommend

Good product. I like it so far.Sizing, I went with medium to be safe... Which would be a size up. It works well but could have gone to large as it wool get sticky when you are working out and become harder to take off. Chalk can help but sizing up would do better. If I did it again I would size up twice to large.

Wish I got these when I started cross fit. Did rope climb and dead lift today and for the first time no blood... So grateful. Fitted well, put on and taken off easily.
