Leg protection: Fighters offers many varieties of leg protection, based on the areas needing coverage. Shin guards can cover just the shin for American kickboxing and full contact, or include an instep pad for low-kick training in Muay Thai and K-1 rules. Kicks are footprotection that cover the instep, ankle, and back of the heel for light-contact full contact and point fighting aka sport karate. Knee pads are designed for softening impact when striking or falling.
