Thai shin pads

[gazendo]

Can anyone recommend good shinpads with instep, which offer maximum protection but not too bulky!!!

the hayabusa mma ones are mint, i got a pair recently and they are really comfortable, dont slip off and offer solid protection.

We use the Windy ones they use on TUF - good for Thai sparring.

For MMA, I'd go for the Rogue pancrase-style ones (although the Hayabusa ones look identical) http://www.mmauniverse.com/products/SS207

I have a pair of the Sandee slimline shinpads, they're billed as "mma shinguards" on fightshop.com but they're good. They don't offer complete protection to your aparring partner; but you don't want that anyhow, something's gotta get through or they'll never toughen up; plus because they're slimline, they don't feel bulky

Nationman shin pads. It's used in many martial arts fighting. Slim and not bulky.

Hayabusa ones are great as John Joe mentioned not too hevy but offer great protection !

MTG ones are really good, lightweight and plenty of protection
