CBC SHINARMOR

Be the Technician

ShinArmor is the world's first fully custom-fit, modifiable shin guard built specifically for short track, mass start, and marathon skating. Orthopedic materials meet body armor in one simple-to-mold champion tool — serious shin protection that actually works under a skinsuit.

More protection than flimsy soccer shin guards. 100% moldable and remoldable at home. Shape it to your shin, evaluate the fit, and remold if you need to.

Why ShinArmor

  • Short-track shin protection — Designed for ice, not the pitch
  • Fully moldable — Custom fit you shape yourself; remoldable several times
  • Skinsuit-ready — Built to sit properly under racing skins
  • Home molding — Simple hot-water process, one guard at a time

Sizing

Measure shin length in centimeters. Factor in how far your knee pads come down and how high your boot tongue sits in the skating position.

  • Small — Height @ 21 cm
  • Medium — Height @ 24 cm
  • Large — Height @ 27 cm

Molding — Preparation

  1. Best molded on a hairless shin — the cutout form can feel sticky while warm.
  2. Use a flat pan that fits the full ShinArmor cutout so it lays flat on the bottom.
  3. Heat tap water to just below boiling (a hot-water cooker works well) and fill the pan.
  4. Submerge one cutout at a time.
  5. Allow 20–30 seconds until soft and drapable.
  6. Lift out with a spatula or tongs. Wait ~10 seconds to cool slightly, then get into molding position.

Molding — On the shin

  1. Sit upright in a chair next to a table.
  2. Set your toes on the table edge with the heel hanging unsupported — similar to skating posture.
  3. Lay the slightly cooled cutout on your unclothed shin.
  4. Lightly massage into place. Do not pull the edges or you will distort the contour.
  5. Let it cool fully before removing. Cold water can finish the set once rigid.
  6. Check the fit and remold if needed.
