Proper Shin Guard Fit
Hey guys, well I have been to a few LHS's and I have been told I am a size 14" AND 15" shin guard lol. I am 5'9 and 170lbs.
I will likely tuck the skate tongue under, but still undecided. How long should the shin guard be for a beginner/recreational player? Some say the bottom should just meet the top of the skate boot where others say it should go below the boot.
The photo below is a Vapor guard in a size 14, which lines up exactly to my mid-knee cap. Does this look like the correct fit or too small?
While on the subject, I am not too crazy about the x60 fit around the calves. Can anyone recommend a narrow/slim guard that doesn't interfere with skating/crossovers, etc?
Thanks all!
