About the STX Field Hockey Reversible Shin Shield Adult

Built by STX, the USA hockey brand, the STX Field Hockey Reversible Shin Shield is aimed at players, coaches and teams at any level. STX is known for beginner and youth sticks and composite sticks (XT, HPR), with roots going back to 1970.

The guard uses a softer, flexible construction that is light and comfortable for younger players and practice and ventilation to keep you cooler.

Most leagues want guards fully covered, so plan on long hockey socks over the top; a thin sleeve underneath keeps everything from shifting mid-game.

Who should buy it? Players, coaches and teams at any level will get the most from it. Compare it with similar options below before you buy.
