New shinguards...

[CPFitz14]

Well, my High School season is about to start, and i'm thinking of getting a new pair of shinguards. Right now i've got a pair of the basic nike Osi shinguards.

I like them a lot, and they are very comfortable, and stay up *fairly* well. I also like that they have no ankle guard, so I can put my shoes and socks on first. I also play defense, so a guard that offers more protection is always good. However, I don't want to trade protection for weight/bulkiness.

Basically, here's what I'm looking at. If you have a pair, i'd appreciate your comments.

Nike Contour BPS
Nike Vapor Lite
Molten Cobra Ultralite
Another pair of the Nike Osi's that I have now.

I'm about to order the vapor lites.I'll let you know what I think of them soon.

Molten Cobra's are great guards from what I gather, the Lazio players picked up a bunch when they were in LA.


I don't understand the Nike Contour guards...they get hard when they're cold, but when your leg is hot and sweaty they're flexible.
