Overview
The Bauer Vapor Hyperlite Shin Guard showcases elite-level protection that is built into a featherlight package for the quick and agile player.
Introducing Bauer's EXO-Lite Skin, a highly compressed molded foam, is located on the calf guard for elite-level impact protection while aiding in weight savings. Surrounding protection is comprised of Hyperlite high-density foam for further lightweight, elite-level protection. Water and moisture won't absorb into any of these materials either, ensuring a featherlight feel all game long.
It features an anatomical fit from knee to ankle from the X-Lite Shield shin cap and ErgoDynamic knee cap. These designs place the knee deep in the pocket and the protection contouring to the natural shape of the leg. With the Dynaflex anchor strap and TuneFit calf strap, players can dial in their fit and have confidence the shin guard won't slip or move around on them during the game.
Internally, a molded liner adds extra comfort while giving players the very best odor and sweat management. Built with their new Thermo Core Zero, this premium liner now gives players a cooling effect for even more added comfort. Lastly, Bauer placed skate abrasion patches on both the outside shell and bottom portion of the liner to increase durability to wear or tear, regardless if a player wears the shin guard over or underneath their skate tongue.

Sizing Chart
| GENERAL SHIN GUARD SIZING GUIDELINES |
|
|---|---|
| Sitting at a 90-degree angle, measure from the bottom of your kneecap to the top of your foot parallel to your ankle and round to the nearest inch. This measurement equals your shin guard size when worn over the skate tongue. Correspond this measurement with the "Tongue In" column below. This is the most popular style since it offers more coverage and the best mobility. | |
| If you prefer to wear the shin guard under the skate tongue, simply subtract 1" from your measurement, which equals going one pad size down. This style provides a lighter and lower-profile fit. |
