BMX Shin Guards & Ankle Guards

Purpose of BMX Shin and Ankle Pads

Essential for safety, BMX shin and ankle guards are crucial for avoiding injuries while riding. Regardless of experience level, it's advised for every BMX rider to sport protective equipment below the knees. Performing tricks carries the risk of injury; thus, why not ride with assurance and ease?

More than just preventing bruises, BMX shin pads can save you from long periods off your bike due to severe falls. Meanwhile, BMX ankle guards shield you from pedal impacts and lend support to your ankles.

Selecting the Best BMX Ankle and Shin Pads

Ideal shin pads ensure safety yet still provide freedom of movement. BMX protection may be rigid or flexible and can be worn over or under clothing depending on preference. Hard shell pads provide the highest protection, though they tend to be bulkier and generally worn over clothing. Conversely, lightweight pads utilise a soft protective layer that solidifies upon impact and can be worn either above or beneath clothing. BMX ankle and shin pads are available as separate items or as a combined set.
