Just Hockey Pro Tip
Proper sizing is critical with Senior shin guards. Your knee should sit securely inside the knee pocket, and the shin guard should extend toward the skate to provide appropriate lower-leg coverage without restricting ankle movement.
When trying on the CCM S26 Tacks Vector Plus Senior Shin Guards, wear your hockey pants and skates whenever possible. This makes it easier to identify any unwanted gaps in protection and ensures your pants, shin guards, and skates work together as a complete protective setup.
