Product Description
Maximum protection for elite field hockey goalkeepers.
Designed for goalkeepers competing at the highest level, the Mercian Elite Goalkeeper Legguards deliver the protection, durability, comfort, and mobility needed to perform with confidence. Engineered for elite-level hockey, these legguards provide extensive coverage while allowing goalkeepers to move freely during saves, slides, and smothering situations.
The legguards are designed to maximise the legal saving surface in accordance with FIH regulations, with extended calf protection providing additional coverage. The inner shape is designed to accommodate longer legs, while two adjustable straps provide a secure and comfortable fit around the calf and knee.
Constructed using heat-bonded open-cell foam pressed under over 1000kg of pressure, the legguards are built for long-lasting performance. This construction eliminates the need for glue, helping prevent delamination and foam breakdown over time.
For improved mobility, the outer foam layer features a low-friction skin that helps reduce resistance between the pad and the pitch. This allows for smoother sliding and smothering when making crucial saves.
The thermo-reactive inner layer is heat-sensitive and gradually moulds to the shape of your leg during the first few weeks of use, creating a more personalised fit. Replaceable buckles and comfort pads further enhance the fit while helping reduce twisting and improve stability during play.
