Description

This is a great umpire shin guard for lower levels, softball or just those who prefer light weight, less bulkier shin guards. It is less protective than others; but, designed that way so that it's much lighter. Actually, it's half the weight of the highest end shin guards.

Even more unique is its single-knee design that does not use a strap at the top for less irritation.

Note: The size 17 of the DLG-LITEs has been re-designed with additional plastic outer shell just under the knee area. You'll want to purchase the 17" here as we have the latest, more protective version.

Features

  • Diamond grid tech foam offers unsurpassed ventilation to stay cool.
  • Strapless single-knee design prevents irritation behind the knee.
  • Extremely lightweight plastic
  • Protection that is up to 2lbs lighter than other brands
  • Low-profile design makes it feel like your not wearing shin guards.
  • Durable snap-lock Tifco buckles
  • Removable toe extension
  • Weight: 15" (1 lbs 11 oz), 17" (1 lbs 12 oz), 18.5" (1 lbs 14 oz)
