Thigh guard is an essential piece of protective equipment. Remfry thigh guards were the first to move from the traditional square/rectangle shape to not only cover the thigh area, but also the side of the leg going down to the knee.
Now a days a vast majority of professional and high level cricketers also bat with the inner thigh guard. This protects the player from an inside or bottom edge, a swinging or cutting delivery or one that keeps low can easily give the back thigh a stinging blow.
Getting the right sized guard is important for both comfort and protection. The sizing recommendations we provide below are for guidelines only.

We work by the longest length of the protective foam inside the guard for our sizing

There will be around one centimetre of towelling and leather overhang around the perimeter that will increase the overall length of the guard
