The Champro Optimus MVP Double Knee Youth Leg Guard (CG106) is a 13.5-inch youth catcher's leg guard built for young catchers at every level of baseball and softball who need maximum lower leg coverage with a double knee cap design that provides additional knee protection through the crouching, blocking, and pop-up movements that define the catching position as young catchers develop their skills behind the plate. The high-performance PE shin plate delivers improved flexibility and durability without added weight, vent holes keep airflow moving through the guard during play, and the cantilever lining system minimizes the impact transferred to the shin on every ball contact. Sold as a pair in four colorways at SPC Sports -- black, navy, royal, and scarlet.
The high-performance polyethylene shin plate delivers superior flexibility compared to rigid plastic shell designs so the guard follows the natural movement of the lower leg through every crouch, block, and pop-up without restricting mobility, while the material's inherent durability resists cracking, deforming, and breaking down under the repeated ball and foul tip contact that youth competitive catchers absorb through a full season of games and practices at the youth level.
The double knee cap design provides two layers of knee coverage at the primary contact surface where catchers make ground contact during blocking positions and take ball contact during crouching play -- giving youth catchers the additional cushioning and impact distribution at the knee that helps developing catchers block aggressively and confidently without fear of knee contact during the critical early stages of learning proper blocking technique.
The cantilever lining system minimizes impact transference to the shin by suspending the hard PE shell slightly away from the leg on the impact side, creating a buffer layer that absorbs and disperses ball contact forces before they reach the shin -- reducing the sting and bruising that young catchers experience when taking direct hits on the lower leg from blocked pitches and foul tips, which can discourage developing catchers from blocking aggressively if the pain of direct contact is not properly mitigated by the gear.
Vent holes in the shin plate allow airflow to circulate through the guard during active play, releasing heat from the contact surface between the guard and the lower leg so youth catchers stay cooler and more comfortable through extended innings and tournament days without the heat buildup that solid-shell designs retain against the leg during warm weather youth games.
The 13.5-inch youth shin length provides the appropriate coverage from knee to ankle for catchers in the youth size range, giving developing catchers a properly fitted leg guard that sits in the correct anatomical position without gapping above the ankle or riding up below the knee during active play behind the plate.
At 1.91 lbs per pair the CG106 is the lightest double knee Optimus MVP leg guard in the lineup, sized and weighted specifically for young bodies so the guards never feel heavy, cumbersome, or fatiguing on smaller youth frames -- keeping young catchers mobile, agile, and focused on developing their skills rather than fighting with heavy or ill-fitting equipment.

What is the benefit of a double knee cap for youth catchers? A double knee cap provides two layers of knee coverage at the primary contact surface, delivering additional cushioning and impact distribution that helps young developing catchers block aggressively and confidently without fear of knee contact -- building the correct blocking habits early without the pain of inadequately protected knee contact discouraging aggressive blocking technique.
How does the CG106 Youth differ from the CG107B Youth Single Knee leg guard? Both the CG106 and CG107B are 13.5-inch youth leg guards with the same PE shin plate, cantilever lining, and vent holes. The CG106 features a double knee cap for maximum knee protection and weighs 1.91 lbs per pair, while the CG107B has a single knee cap for a lighter, more streamlined profile at 1.62 lbs per pair. Choose based on whether the player prioritizes maximum knee protection or a lighter, more agile feel.
What is the cantilever lining system? The cantilever lining system suspends the hard PE shin plate slightly away from the leg on the impact side, creating a buffer layer that absorbs and disperses ball contact forces before they reach the shin -- reducing the sting and bruising that young catchers experience when taking direct foul tips and blocked balls on the lower leg.
