Used CCM Tacks 9040 Shin Pads

Shin pads are in in a very good condition. You can see in the pictures that the paint is partly gone in some places, but this is just a cosmetic paint issue. The plastic itself is in a good condition: no cracks or deep scratches and only very shallow scuffs. These shin pads were never used without a hockey sock over them, so they never came in direct contact with any surface (including ice). They were also worn 100% of the time over a long soccer sock, so the yellow inside cushion inserts never came in direct contact with the skin. There are two velcro'ed straps on the back of each shin pad: wide strap under the calf muscle and narrower strap above the calf muscle. With this secure two-strap system, there is no need to tape over the hockey sock with an adhesive tape to keep the shin pad in place. The straps are in a great shape and provide a very secure grip - they will not unfasten during a practice or game. Additionally, the outer flap provides full protection with foam cushions and a plastic insert sewn in to protect the outer side of the lower leg from pucks and other impact. The shin pads have no smell, as the yellow cushion inserts are removable (velcro'ed in) and were taken out of the shin pad to hang out to dry after every use as well as were washed regularly. These are great shin pads for elite level junior and intermediate age hockey player up to and including elite AAA travel hockey, as they provide superior level of protection from impact as well as are very light and securely held in place by a dual-strap system.
