The Bauer Supreme UltraSonic INT Hockey Shin Guards have been designed and engineered for the elite player who wants full coverage and protection but without compromising their ability to be fast. The key elements this year defining the Ultrasonic shin pad are the ErgoDynamic Lab knee cap, AMP segmentation, and ADAPTIV skin calf guard.
Shin Protection
The Ultrasonic shin pad features the new anatomically molded shin cap. It is infused with (AMP) Active Motion Protection technology segmentation for effortless bend at the knee. This technology allows you to move freely while still offering elite level protection.
Knee Cap & Protection
The knee cap is equipped with the new ErgoDynamic Lab knee. This provides a deeper fit into the shin pad for full coverage protection. The knee wing, aka the side of the knee, features vented armour foam to cover openings when bending during a stride.
The Ultrasonic also offers a flexible high-density foam thigh protector along the top of the knee cap for added protection when bending your knee.
Calf Protection
Along the calf, the Ultrasonic features the ADAPTIV skin calf guard. This provides low profile protection that morphs with your body shape.
Liner
The UltraSonic features Bauer’s ThermoCore liner. This liner is infused with an antimicrobial, anti-odor, and sweat management system. This helps regulate the body's temperature and will also dry quickly before your next ice time.
Additionally, the liner has a second layer of protection with Poron XRD ® foam with a flexible skate zone. This zone allows you to comfortably get the shin pad over your skate and flex with your stride. To put the cherry on top, the liner is also removable, and easily washable.
Strapping
The Comfort Lock anchor straps along the back of the knee cap and mid calf locks the shin pad in place not allowing movement or shifting during play.

Bauer Hockey Shin Guards Sizing Chart
Player Shin Guard Sizing Information
When sizing a shin pad, you must determine first if you will wear the shin pad over top of the skate tongue, or if the skate tongue will sit in front of shin pad and “flop” forward. This will determined the length of the shin pad you will want.
Your knee should fit directly into the center of the kneecap, which is usually lined and padded to help direct it and provide comfort. Once the pad is strapped to your leg, it should be secure and snug and should NOT be able to twist rotate or slide freely. There are many strapping systems offered and you must decide what you like and dislike. On some models you will find anchor straps or thicker straps which can offer a better more secure fit. Anchor straps are made up of a stretchy knit material and usually fasten above or below the calf muscle. These straps are designed to anchor the pad in place and not allow it slide up or down. Thicker straps across the calf wrap/guard are also often used, these straps help provide full protection to your leg ensuring that the calf guard reaches across your leg.
Keep in mind that as you go up in price you will usually see more adjustments, options and higher density foams and technologies used. You must determine within your budget, which shin pad offers the most features that you want, as well as provides the most comfort.
Sizing a Shin Pad over top of your Skate Tongue:
To size a shin pad correctly when fitting over top of your skate tongue, measure the length (in inches) of your leg from the middle of your knee cap, when it is bent at a 90 degree angle, to the top of the boot of the skate. Once you have this measurement, round the number up to the next whole number (i.e. 13.2” becomes 14”). Because the shin pad is sitting over top of the skate tongue, it enables your to wear a slightly bigger pad without compromising mobility. This is usually seen as an upside because you get extra protection in areas like the tongue of your skate.
If you are sizing a player and want to include growth room, we do recommend this method as well, because it allows for a bigger pad to be worn, again without compromising motion or mobility.
Sizing a Shin Pad underneath your Skate Tongue:
To size a shin pad correctly when fitting over top of your skate tongue, measure the length (in inches) of your leg from the middle of your knee cap, when it is bent at a 90 degree angle, to the top of the boot of the skate. Once you have this measurement, round the number down to the next whole number (i.e. 13.7” becomes 13”). Because the shin pad is shipping underneath the skate tongue, the pad will not be able to sit right against the edge of the skate and thus a slightly shorter shin pad is used. If a shin pad that is too big is tried on, you will notice that the shin pad is shifted up and the kneecap falls out of the designated spot. If this happens your shin and knee will not be properly protected and you are more susceptible to having your shin pad rotate or more as well.
Compare your height, weight and age to the charts provided to find your best fit. As well, use the measurement that was taken above to compare to the provided charts. Another good estimation is to look at your old/existing shin pads to see what size they are. If you are growing and have outgrown them, then next size up is probably for you. If you liked the way your shin pads felt, it may be smart to continue with the same size.
