Diston Protective Base Layer - Shin Guards

Diston Protective Base Layer Calf Guards are a pair of cut-resistant protectors for the calves that can also be used on the forearms.

Covers the gap that short pants can leave: The calf guard is especially relevant when the protective pants end too high or when an extra layer is desired over an exposed area.

How to use the product

1. Choose a size so the guard fits snugly without restricting circulation.
2. Place the guard over the calf and under the other layers.
3. When used on the forearm, the store’s older product text recommends one size smaller.
4. Check that there is no unprotected gap against the ski boot or glove.
5. Follow the washing instructions and replace the guard after serious cut damage.
