Football protections: selection for promotion

What can you find in the promotion for protection gear?

This selection includes protective equipment used before, during, and after a football match or training. You'll find shin guards, leg sleeves, ankle supports, as well as flip-flops, water bottles, bottle carriers, and replacement studs. All of this is offered at regularly revised prices, making it a useful stop if you're renewing your equipment without waiting for full prices.

Shin guards, leg sleeves, and ankle supports: how to choose?

The choice mainly depends on how you use them on the field. A classic shin guard slips into the sock or attaches with a dedicated accessory, like the Nike Guard Stay fittings, when you prefer a more secure fit. Leg sleeves, like the Nike Strike models, keep the shin guard in place without needing additional compression socks. For players looking for more comprehensive protection, the G-Form ranges (V2 or Pro-S) also cover the ankle and meet match requirements. An ankle support completes this setup if you need extra joint support, beyond just shin protection.

Flip-flops, water bottles, and accessories: comfort around the match

Beyond the protection itself, this page also includes items that accompany training sessions and matches. Flip-flops, like the adidas Trefoil models, are used to rest your feet before or after exertion. Water bottles and bottle carriers from Uhlsport or Prestoglas help you stay hydrated on the sidelines, available as individual bottles or in bulk packs for a team. Replacement studs round out the offering to adapt moulded shoes according to the condition of the pitch.

When to take advantage of the best deals on football protection gear?

The prices of protection gear change with the major commercial events of the site. Black Friday and the end-of-year holidays are often good times to update your gear before the resumption. The winter sales then allow you to complete your selection during the season, while the French Days in spring come at a time when you're preparing for the continuation of the season or the summer break. The Sales page centralizes all ongoing operations on the site, across all categories.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I find cheap shin guards outside of sale periods?

Shin guards are continuously available in this selection, regardless of a specific sale period. You can check the shin guards page at any time to compare the available models.

Are flip-flops and water bottles included in the promotional items?

Yes, these two types of products are part of the same selection as the actual protective gear, as they are essential equipment for a football player. Their availability depends on the current stock, just like any other item on this page.

Should I wear an ankle support in addition to a shin guard?

It depends on your joint sensitivity and any previous ankle injury history. A shin guard protects the front of the leg, while an ankle support provides additional support to the joint itself. Both can be worn together without any particular issue.

When do sales on protective equipment start?

The exact dates vary each year and follow the national sales calendar as well as site-specific highlights, such as Black Friday or French Days. The Sales page remains the most reliable stop to keep track of ongoing operations.

Where can I find specific protective equipment for referees?

Equipment specific to the role of refereeing, such as cards or dedicated accessories, is not included in this selection focused on player protection. It can be found on the Referees page, which groups this equipment separately.
