I'm currently using bauer supreme one90 shins now.  I do not like the total one shin or the nxg shin since they went to a tighter fitting shin.  Has anyone heard about the 20k shins or tried the nexus 1000 shins?  Looking at those two as a replacement

If you are going reebok a pro tip would be to try the size up.... i've just switch from Bauer supremes 8000 14'' to Reebok 8k pro 15'' ... i had tried Reeboks 11k in 14'' and these where just ridiculously too short.... by a mile!

If your one the low budget go with Nexus 400 real good shin pads for blocking shots.......... But now i use total ones

I went from Supreme One80's to 11K's and will never look back.

The new Reeboks fit very well but I don't like the straps, I still prefer the strapping system Bauer uses with the velcro on the front of the pad.

Have tried on any of models below the Total One shins?  I find they had too much padding in the knee and it kept shifting on me.  When I moved down a model or two it just fit a lot better.


If your bag has wheels, you don't.

RBK 8k or 7k/Jofa 6070 and never look back. If you wear a 14" shin now, go for a 15" as the RBK/Jofas do run a tad shorter than others


NHL teams could care less that you want a pair of brand new Warrior Luxe/Franchise custom thumb loop super custom digi toilet paper soft palm with double added reinforced custom Warrior logo backhand padding gloves or a 17 flex double kreps curve upside down toe hook stick from your fav player/team. -Bakes
