Tirkhe 3 Report post Posted October 22, 2020 Hi! Can anyone help me finding most sleek and narrow shin guards that are not bulky. Almost every new shins have huge calf straps that point out like vapors. I have thought about ordering Warrior Alpha DX3 pair they look mobile, light and narrow. What you guys think and give your opinion what should i try out? Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OldCY 94 Report post Posted October 22, 2020 The warriors are good. Spend some more and get the dx pro. I have the qx pro (previous model). Protection will be better than dx3 and meet your requirements. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you are new to hockey, it might be worth going to a hockey store to see what you are getting and have it fitted to your leg. If you've never bought shin guards before, you don't want to get a shin guard that is too short or too long. Width and bulkiness is not as important.

Have to compare these. Vapors just look like they have beefed up calf strap, but lets see! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah definitely, I had the elbows which were great, shins were too low profile for me. They were good quality, on par in protection, weight and comfort with my old 19K/20Ks even Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
