Introduction
What did SER do after receiving claims of the best shinguard and ankle protection system available? We naturally tested them out!
We’ve recently heard of lofty claims by S1-Sport, a shinguard and Achilles protection system manufacturer, that hey have the best protection products available on the market. We got in touch with the team at S1 and set up a product testing review. So, thanks to S1 (specifically Vince Delgado and Robert Steed) for making this review possible. Now let’s see how the S1 protection system held up under SER’s tests.
Info on the system-
Just before we get underway with the review, we thought it would be best to give you some background info on S1′s system and the guarantees they make with the product. Just another quick note we thought important, S1 currently has Rory Delap, Stoke City captain, and Billy Wingrove, freestyle extraordinaire, wearing their products.
 | | Maximum comfort | | Separate undersection and pad ensures maximum comfort and protection. |
|  | | Washable | | Undersection is machine washable. The Shin pad can be wiped clean. |
|
 | | No Need for Tape | | Tape can be restrictive to blood flow. It may also limit access to injury. In the event of injury, the system can be removed in seconds. |
|  | | No Shin Pad Rash | | The breathable undersection ensures no skin contact with the pad, keeping the leg dry and eliminating any dermatological issues such as eczema or skin rash caused by shin pad abrasion. Even our velcro is velvet lined! |
|
 | | Non Slip Fitting | | The wrap arround undersection and seperate pad enclosures that when you attach both together the system stays in place while leaving the calf unrestricted. |
|  | | No Shin Pad Odour | | The undersection prevents the pad from having any direct contact with the leg, eliminating Shin pad odour. |
|
 | | Flexible Easy Fit | | Separate shin system allows independent leg and foot movement. |
|  | | Lightweight Feel | | Unique fixing system with adjustable pad ensures a better fit and a lighter feel, with both NOCSAE and International pads available. |
