Football Shin Pads – adidas Protection for Every Player

Frequently Asked Questions

What adidas football shin pads are available in Lebanon?

adidas Lebanon stocks football shin pads in adult and youth sizes, including:

  • Slip-in shin pads – lightweight, held in place by compression socks or a sleeve; popular at senior level
  • Ankle-guard shin pads – include side ankle protection, often preferred by youth players
  • Hard-shell models – rigid outer shell over foam backing for maximum protection

Football boots are also available in the football collection alongside shin pads and the full kit range.

How do I choose the right size football shin pad?

Shin pad size is based on the player's height and age group rather than shoe size. As a general guide:

  • XS / Youth Small – players under 120 cm (typically under 8 years old)
  • S / Youth Medium – players between 120–140 cm
  • M / Junior – players between 140–160 cm
  • L / Adult – players between 160–175 cm
  • XL / Adult – players over 175 cm

The pad should cover from just above the ankle to just below the knee. Check the size guide on each product page on adidas Lebanon before ordering.

Are adidas shin pads mandatory for playing football in Lebanon?

Yes – shin pads are mandatory equipment under FIFA Laws of the Game, which apply to all organised and competitive football in Lebanon. Referees will require players to wear shin pads before allowing them onto the pitch. The pads must be covered entirely by the socks. For training sessions and informal kickabouts, shin pads are not always enforced but are strongly recommended to reduce the risk of injury from challenges and accidental contact.
