Hannes Mirow is a German athlete and engineer who develops products for the sports sector. For him, shin guards are the most annoying utensil in sports clothing when it comes to soccer. “PantherGrip” is supposed to remedy the situation.
PANTHERGRIP Shin Guards
PANTHERGRIP "is an absolutely non-slip football shin guard. It is used by women, children and men alike. Unique "is that the shin guard is absolutely non-slip even under high load and stress, thus guaranteeing high protection and wearing comfort. This is guaranteed with "thousands of micro-teeth on the surface provide a brachial hold in the sleeve, called PANTHERGRIPs".
Founder Hannes Mirow has also considered the muscle tension during playing. So the protector offers enough space for the working muscle to develop and work optimally. The Airbreeze channels on the inside of the protector ensure a cool climate on the skin.
