Experience ultimate comfort and protection with Gamepatch’s groundbreaking, body-molding shin guards – the future of football gear.

Shin guards

Redefining Protection and Comfort

Gamepatch has made a groundbreaking contribution to football gear with its innovative shin guards featuring Body Adjust Technology. Unlike traditional guards made of hard plastic, Gamepatch uses a body-adjustable foam that molds to the player’s shin during warm-ups. This creates a second-skin fit that provides comfort and unrestricted movement without sacrificing safety. Designed to meet the rigorous EN 13061 safety standard, the product combines high performance with premium adaptability. 

Gamepatch CEO Andis Blinds emphasizes the importance of this innovation: “For a young sports brand like Gamepatch, receiving the ISPO Award proves that our innovations are truly valued. Our unique Body Adjust Technology works, and it shows we're on the right path as a company.” The award not only highlights the product’s functionality but also underscores its potential to set a new industry standard for football protective gear. 

Created in collaboration with professional football players, the shin guards have undergone extensive testing to ensure optimal performance. Available in two sizes and three colors, the product provides players with customization options tailored to their needs. Gamepatch’s mission is to deliver protection without compromise, redefining what athletes can expect from their gear.

Benefits for Retailers and Athletes

Gamepatch’s shin guards offer distinct advantages for both players and retail partners. For athletes, the Body Adjust Technology ensures an unparalleled fit that adapts to their shin’s anatomy, significantly enhancing comfort and protection. This adaptability minimizes the risk of injury while maintaining complete freedom of movement, allowing players to perform at their best. By eliminating hard materials like plastic, Gamepatch sets a new precedent for player-focused design in football gear. 

The product is also a boon for retailers and distributors. Manufactured entirely in Europe, the shin guards guarantee consistent quality thanks to adherence to the ISO 9001 Quality Management System. “Quality is at the heart of everything we do,” says Blinds. “We source only the finest materials, ensuring every product meets our high standards.” Retailers benefit from fast delivery, reliable product availability, and a robust selection of marketing materials. Gamepatch’s modern, trend-driven approach enhances its appeal to a broad range of customers. 

By offering a high-quality product that combines innovation with practical benefits, Gamepatch aims to strengthen its partnerships with sports retailers. The award-winning shin guards not only cater to the needs of professional players but also provide a compelling proposition for stores seeking cutting-edge football equipment.
