The Easton Jen Schro THE VERY BEST Small Fastpitch Leg Guards (JSTVBLGS) are 12-inch NOCSAE-certified youth fastpitch softball leg guards co-designed with renowned catching coach Jen Schroeder specifically for younger female fastpitch athletes who need lower-body protection built around the demands of softball catching -- especially blocking and throwing from the knees. Every feature of these leg guards -- from the improved wrapping shell to the IKP+ inner knee padding -- was engineered for the unique physical demands of the fastpitch catching position and the female body's specific pressure points behind the plate. Available at SPC Sports in black and white.
The improved shell design wraps more naturally around your player's shins and knees than flat traditional designs, giving them better coverage and a more secure fit in the blocking position and a more natural profile when throwing from the knees -- a position fastpitch catchers take far more frequently than baseball catchers.
IKP+ (Inner Knee Padding Plus) is the standout feature of these leg guards -- designed specifically to reduce the pain and bruising fastpitch catchers experience on their inner knees from repeated blocking and throwing from the knees, a feature born directly from Jen Schroeder's firsthand experience and feedback from serious fastpitch catchers at every level of the game.
Neoprene back-of-knee straps reduce discomfort, rashing, and bruising behind the knee during blocking and extended crouching sessions, so your player can stay in their stance longer and block more aggressively without the back-of-knee irritation that standard straps cause over the course of a full game or tournament.
The breathable liner promotes maximum airflow throughout the inside of the guard so your player's legs stay cool and comfortable through every inning, while added shin padding delivers extra cushioning and protection along the shin where foul balls and errant pitches make the most contact.
Inner-knee padding is designed specifically for throwing from the knees, providing cushioning and support exactly where it is needed most during one of the most repeated and physically demanding movements in the fastpitch catching position.
The 12-inch small length covers your player's leg from knee to ankle in the right amount for younger fastpitch catchers ages 12 and under, giving them complete lower-body coverage in a guard designed to perform the way fastpitch catching actually demands on every pitch of every game.
This product comes with a 1 Year Manufacturer Warranty.

FAQ
What size and age are the Small JSTVBLGS designed for? The Small size is 12 inches, measured from the center of the kneecap to the bottom of the shin, and is designed for younger fastpitch catchers ages 12 and under.
What is IKP+ and why does it matter for fastpitch catchers? IKP+ stands for Inner Knee Padding Plus -- padding designed specifically to reduce the pain and bruising fastpitch catchers experience on their inner knees from repeatedly blocking and throwing from the knees, which is far more common in softball than in baseball.
How do these leg guards differ from standard baseball leg guards? The Very Best leg guards are shaped to wrap more naturally around the shin and knee for the fastpitch blocking and throwing-from-knees position, and feature neoprene back-of-knee straps and IKP+ padding engineered specifically for the physical demands of female fastpitch catchers.
