PP Plastic Material

Confirmed material: polypropylene

The plastic product in this range uses PP plastic (polypropylene) as its base material. Material identity is a product fact; performance claims are separate and should be supported by product-specific measurements.

Weight by size12–91g per guard
Shell thickness5–8 mm
Impact / flexFirst-party test required
Print durabilityPublish after testing
Review shin guard testing and research
Evidence boundary: Weight, thickness, impact, flex, scratch, and print-durability results should come from SAIWEI SPORTS’s own Testing & Research data rather than generic assumptions about polypropylene.
Liner Lab

The Second-Generation EVA Foam Liner

The PP shell is only half of the product. The layer your leg actually touches is the EVA foam liner bonded to the back of it, and on the current plastic range that liner runs to a second-generation foam.

Second-generation EVA foam

The liner is a second-generation EVA foam chosen for softness and resilience rather than density. It compresses against the shape of the shin and takes up the small irregularities of the leg, so the shell sits on a cushion that conforms to you instead of resting on a hard flat contact point.

Its elasticity is the other half of the story. A foam that springs back to full thickness after compression keeps cushioning the leg on every wear rather than packing down, which is what keeps the shell following the leg instead of floating above it.

The thickness we publish for the PP range is measured across the finished guard with the EVA liner in place, on the same construction basis as the carbon range.

Buyer Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Direct answers for the most common PP plastic purchase questions.

What material are your custom plastic shin guards made from?
The plastic option uses PP plastic, meaning polypropylene, as the base material. Product dimensions are available in eight sizes. Weight, thickness, impact, and durability claims should be based on SAIWEI SPORTS’s own measurements rather than generic material descriptions.
Can plastic shin guards be customized with a photo, name and number?
Yes. The PP plastic option can be personalized with your own photo, name, jersey number, text, or artwork. Different images can also be used on the left and right guards. A design preview is provided before production.
Who should choose plastic instead of carbon fiber?
Choose plastic if you specifically prefer the PP product format, want an entry custom option, or prefer one of its available sizes and shapes. Do not assume it is always cheaper or more suitable than carbon in every configuration. Compare the actual products before deciding.
Are plastic shin guards available for kids?
The PP range includes compact and larger product dimensions, but this page does not assign a size by age. Use the actual dimensions and the size guide to choose for a youth player. Fit and coverage preference matter.
Do you sell plastic shin pads to the UK?
Yes. UK customers can order the PP plastic custom product. The current GBP minimum order value is £15. Express DHL/FedEx delivery is listed as 4–8 business days, with free express shipping from £111 under the current shipping policy.
