Cold products for football club

What is a cold product for sports care?

A cold product is a care accessory that allows for quick application of cold to an affected area, without needing a freezer or a traditional ice pack. On the field or during a match, it is often the first response to a knock, a sprain, or a hit received by a player. The Cold Care range includes cans, sprays, and instant cold packs designed to stay in the club's kit or medical bag, ready to use.

What cold products can you find at Foot-Store?

The selection consists of three types of products that complement each other based on the situation:

• The cold spray, which is sprayed directly onto the skin for an immediate cooling effect, useful in the event of a knock or bruise.
• The disposable ice pack, which generates cold through a chemical reaction without preparation or freezing, handy when no refrigerator is available.
• The cold spray with arnica, which combines the cold effect with arnica, traditionally used to soothe stressed areas.

These products are offered by brands specializing in sports care such as Prestoglas, Tremblay CT, Select, Powershot, and McDavid.

How to use a cold product after a knock on the field?

The common practice is to apply cold as soon as possible after the impact, directly on the affected area, to limit swelling. A can or spray is used by direct spraying, while a disposable ice pack is activated by pressing it and then placed on the skin, usually protected by a cloth. These products are a first aid gesture: they do not replace medical advice in cases of persistent pain or serious injury.

Bandages, heating products, medical bags: other care pages

The selection of cold products forms part of a broader set of care equipment, which you can view separately:

• Bandages, to support or protect a joint after a knock.
• Heating products, used for warming up or relaxing muscles.
• Medical bags, to store and transport all the club's care equipment.

All of these pages are grouped under the Care section, which covers the medical equipment for a football club.

When to take advantage of good deals on care products?

Promotional events on the site are great opportunities to update the club's care equipment, rather than waiting for an emergency. The Black Friday and the end-of-year holidays are often the first occasions of the season, followed by winter sales and then the French Days in spring.

Apart from these key times, the Club Space Good Deals and Club Space Sales pages gather current offers on club equipment, while the Clearance and New Arrivals let you spot respectively end-of-lines and the latest products added to the catalogue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a cold spray last long?

A cold spray should be stored away from heat and direct light, like any aerosol. Always check the information on the product packaging before use, especially if it has already been opened.

Can you use an arnica spray directly on an open wound?

No, a cold spray or can should be applied to intact skin, not an open wound. In case of a cut or bleeding, the wound should be treated first before considering cold care around the area.

When to choose a disposable ice pack instead of a cold spray?

The disposable ice pack is useful when no other equipment is available, as it is simply activated by pressing. The cold spray is better suited for quick and repeated use, such as on the sidelines during a match.

Is a specific bag needed to carry a club's cold products?

It's not mandatory, but a dedicated medical bag allows you to keep cans, sprays, and ice packs together with the rest of the care equipment, making them easy to find when needed on the field.

Are cold products suitable for other sports besides football?

Yes, a cold spray, an arnica spray, or a disposable ice pack can be used in the same way for any sport, whenever a knock or bruise requires quick cooling of the affected area.
