Shin guards
Shin guards are mandatory in football matches and protect the shins from impacts and tackles.
Many players today use mini shin guards because they take up less space and provide greater freedom of movement on the pitch.

Grip socks
Grip socks have become very popular in modern football. They have small rubber grips under the foot, which help reduce slipping in the boots.
Many players use grip socks to get better stability in their boots during sprints, turns, and changes of direction.

Sleeves
Sleeves are often used with grip socks. They function as a sock without a foot and are worn over the shin.
This makes it possible to use grip socks in boots and still have long socks over shin guards in matches.
