The Sherwood A8 Cut Resistant Calf Sleeves provide some of the best protection on the market to the back of the calf, an area that can be easily exposed to skate lacerations. Within the ANSI scale, A8 sits just shy of the best protection possible, so players can skate with confidence and battle hard in tight situations knowing they have top-level cut protection. The sleeves themselves easily slide over the foot and remain comfortable underneath your shin guards. They have a close-to-the-body compression fit and a silicone grip to ensure they stay exactly where they need to be.
