Your message opens in WhatsApp with this page’s name added, so the desk knows what you are looking at.
What you get. A quotation for your order type. You can ask for a sample pair to check print, fit and finish before a production run; its cost is confirmed on your quotation.
What is confirmed on your quotation. Minimum quantity per order type, sample cost, production time, packaging, materials, the sock printing method and the supplier’s own product code.
Sizes on this page are the supplier’s own labels. A measurement chart in centimetres is confirmed on your quotation until the supplier’s chart is published here.
Where these shin guards can be supplied. They carry no CE marking and no EN 13061 test report. Football shin guards are treated as Category II protective equipment in the EU and the UK, so they are not offered for sale into the EU/EEA or the UK as protective equipment until a conformity assessment is completed for the exact product. Buyers in other markets confirm their own local requirements; the sales desk can quote a certification project alongside a production order.
Why a sock with a pocket
A slip-in guard has no strap. It is held between the leg and the sock, so what you wear over it decides how the guard sits.
Under the Laws of the Game (IFAB Law 4), shin guards must be covered by the socks. Law 4 also requires a suitable material and an appropriate size, and makes the player responsible for both.
This family answers that in three ways. A pocket sock sold with a pair of guards, a matched guard-and-sock set, or a printed sleeve sock ordered on its own. Whether you call them shin guards or shin pads, the same three references cover football (soccer) teams, retailers and single players.

Sleeves, pocket socks and guard-and-sock sets
WYD- references are this site’s catalogue references, not the supplier's own product codes. Ask for the supplier’s own product code on your quotation.
Pocket socks with shin guards, plain or printed
A football sock with a pocket at the shin, ordered together with a pair of slip-in guards. Order the pair plain, the guards printed, the socks printed, or the whole set printed to your design (supplier-stated). Sock-only sizes are ordered separately from guard sizes.
| Customisation | Plain, printed guards, printed socks, or a fully printed set (supplier-stated). |
|---|---|
| Size / fit | Slip-in guard inside a pocket sock. Guard sizes labelled XS, S, M and L; sock-only sizes labelled S–M and L–XL. |
| Key specs | Polyester with PP and EVA. Age band as the supplier labels it: above 13. |
Shin guard and sock set, fully custom
A matched set: one pair of shin guards and one pair of socks, both printed to your design (supplier-stated). It is ordered as one set rather than as two separate items. One size label covers the whole set.
| Customisation | The whole set printed to your design — guards and socks together (supplier-stated). |
|---|---|
| Size / fit | Slip-in guards worn inside the socks. One set size per order, labelled XS, S, M or L. |
| Key specs | Polyester. Age band as the supplier labels it: above 13. |
Shin guard sleeve sock, printed to order
A sleeve sock printed to your design and ordered on its own, without guards (supplier-stated). Two size labels cover the range: S–M and L–XL. Order it alongside guards from the custom shin guards page when you want both.
| Customisation | Printed sock cover, made to your design (supplier-stated). |
|---|---|
| Size / fit | Sleeve sock worn over a slip-in guard. Size labels S–M and L–XL. |
| Key specs | Polyester. No age band is stated for this reference. |
What varies, and what to confirm
Prices are quoted per enquiry. Single personalised pairs, team and club sets, retailer stock and full custom are separate order types. The minimum for each is confirmed on your quotation. The supplier’s own product code for each reference is confirmed on your quotation. Your quotation and proforma invoice name the contracting seller. Bank details are issued once, on the proforma, and never changed by email. Call the number on this site before paying a changed account.
Who this family suits
- Teams and clubs that want one look across guards and socks, ordered as one set.
- Players who wear a slip-in guard and want the sock that goes with it.
- Retailers and print-on-demand stores adding a sock reference next to a guard reference.
- Buyers who need the socks printed but already have guards they use.
Who it does not suit yet
- Buyers who need a measurement chart in centimetres before they order. Sizes here are the supplier’s own labels, and the chart is confirmed on your quotation.
- Buyers who need an issued test report before they can sell. None is on file for these products.
- Buyers who want the guard itself printed rather than the sock — see custom shin guards.
- Buyers who want the smallest guard to wear under a sock — see mini shin guards.
What is stated, what is not, what to check yourself
Construction, options, sizes and materials
Supplier-stated: the supplier’s own description of its product; not independently tested. Every option, size label and material name on this page carries that label.
Standards, certificates and durability
Not yet documented: no test report or certificate is on file for this product. Ask for the issued document for the exact product, named on your quotation.
Print, fit and finish
Verify on your sample: check this on the sample pair under your own use before a production order. Wash the socks the way your buyers will, and check the guard sits where you expect.
These socks, sleeves and guards are not presented as meeting any standard. Ask which issued documents exist for the exact reference before you order. The buyer FAQ carries the short answer on EN 13061 and CE.
Artwork and rights
Send only images, names and logos you own or have permission to use. If a design looks like it belongs to someone else, the desk will ask before printing.
Ask about sleeves and socks
Send the reference, the quantity, the sizes, whether you want printing, and your destination country. The desk replies with a quotation. Prices are quoted per enquiry.
