Wilson MLB West Vest Pro Umpire Shin Guards

These umpire shin guards are the real deal. A lot of protection and very comfortable! They are a bit bulkier than the platinum pair but I don't feel any mobility issues with them. I am looking forward to using them this season!

Great pair of umpire shin guards, very sturdy and you'll feel protected back there. My only problem with them is the plastic flap that goes over the plate shoes that aren't removable. I like having it for JuCo games but it feels a little silly to wear for those youth games. That being said I'll probably cut it off.

Really good umpire shin guards. Highly recommended! Comfortable and well made.

Love ordering from Ump-Attire.com opposed to other umpire sites. My merchandise comes in a few days, not when the season is over. I am 5'11; the size 16'-17' is perfect for me. Ages 15 and under they're a little too much but college men's league or pro I always felt safe with my Wilson MLB West Vest Pro Umpire shin guards on.

Decided to upgrade from my starter Champro Kit (the chest and mask work great! The legs were a little uncomfortable) and decided to go with these. Couldn't be happier! My partner in my first game with them made a comment on how big they were but instantly I could tell they were going to be comfortable all game. Happened to take 3 balls off of them that game. It was a light thud and didn't feel a thing. Able to stay with the play and make a call on an advancing runner. Don't think there is anything above these to upgrade too. They get a little warm on hot days but the payoff is definitely worth it!

Really good shin guards. I cut the end off so it would fit with my plate shoes.

I am sure these are great but I ordered the mid cut plate shoes. This triple knee guard is to long and the instep plate does not come off to accommodate the higher shoes. I went the Wilson Platinum Shin Guards with a double knee with the removable instep plate and am very happy with them.

These have worked well for me. Took one foul off the top pads and didn't feel a thing. Fairly streamlined compared to some of my partners gear. Good movement and the straps are not uncomfortable. I don't wear high socks or tights with these and don't have a complaint about the straps rubbing into my legs.

Just got my new umpire shin guards a few weeks ago. Used them yesterday for the 1st time got hit once with a fastball catcher got crossed up and didn't feel a darn thing. These Wilson Shin Guards are the best and I highly recommend them.

The protection these provide is unmatched, taken college level pitching straight off the shin guard, very small amount of pain. By far some of the best umpire shin guards for protection. However, they are quite bulky and difficult to run in. Just makes me work harder I guess.

What can I say, it is a top level shin guard of the world!!! Love it!!!

Great shin guards! Very comfortable and easy to run with. Have taken quite a few hits to them and didn't feel a thing.

If you want protection, these are second to none. I'm 6' and the 16"- 17" fits great. They are bulky and noticeable under your pants. The floating knee protrudes and the foot protector is riveted to the shin guard. Needed my plate pants altered to prevent the high water look.

Love these shin guards! The best protection, the best fit for the price! Would highly recommend these to anyone just starting out.

I love these shin guards!! They are very, very comfortable and they stay where they are supposed to be.

Awesome umpire shin guards. I've taken my share of foul balls and pitches off my shins and never feel a thing. Great protection and very comfortable.

These shin guards offer the ultimate protection. They are extremely comfortable to wear and not cumbersome at all. The only issue I have with them is the top pads above the knee are held in place by Velcro and after one game, the Velcro started coming apart and the top pads were having trouble staying in place. I did take a couple of shots and felt nothing.

By far the most comfortable umpire shin guards I have ever worn. And I love how far the protection goes up on the thigh. The only thing I didn't like is I had to cut off the foot protection because I wear plate shoes. It would be nice if that part was detachable.

I waited way too long and endured many shin guards before finally breaking down and buying these. They are by far, the best on the market. I am a heavier guy and do a lot of one man games. I was concerned that they might be cumbersome but was pleasantly surprised how light they are. And as always Ump-Attire.com delivers excellent customer service. They have a customer for life.

I'm glad I made the choice to go with Wilson when I upgraded my gear this year. They are a little heavier than my last pair of UMP-LITE but the coverage is far more worth the extra ounces. The removable padding is great for cleaning. This pair is definitely worth the price.

I have owned these shin guards for quite a few years. They offer great protection, however the 2 downsides are the Velcro adjustable knee eventually wears out from dirt, and you have to securely fasten the knee, and in order to remove the foot guard you either have to cut it off or drill out the rivets. Great for those tall umpires who cannot find good shin guards.

I have really enjoyed these shins. They are not bulky and very light weight. I am 6'4" and it can be hard to find shins that fit right. I couldn't be happier.

Simply the best shin guard I have ever used. I only use the top and bottom strap and find that to be plenty. Now if they just made this model without the metatarsal cover to combine with new plate shoes. Hint to Wilson!

Great shins!! Lightweight, easy to clean, durable, comfortable and protect the outside and inside of your ankles really well. I removed the plastic foot peice because it was uncomfortable with my plate shoes but that was easy. Highly recommend!!

What else can be said, about the #1 Shin Guard for umpires. Fits great!! Take a beating and you feel nothing.

The best shin guards I have purchased. You barely, if at all, feel contact and never will you have pain the next day. The triple knee system prevents your pants from tucking into the top guard. My favorite by far.

Great shins all the way around! Upgraded from some old Champro ones I used when I first started! The difference is remarkable and the protection is two-fold! Feel practically bullet proof with this and the platinum on!

Considering it's price, it's a bad product. 1st fault is the whole knee design: the knee caps are not integral with the shin-plate. They are boring to dress, but above all they must be bound very tightly to knee, not to move. So it's uncomfortable to wear and sweat doesn't evaporate from knee region. And in any case, knee caps moves anyway. (Models with knee protection integral with shin plate let you to tight the shin plate only and are much more comfortable). 2nd fault are the ankle plates. They aren't low enough to really protect malleolus. It isn't worth its price.

I've been using these shin guards for over a year and absolutely love them. I appreciate the velcro adjustable leg pads and the upper knee area. These leg guards fit like a glove and I'm 6'6". I don't feel even the hardest shots with these pads on. The plastic foot protector is useless for anyone who has plate shoes but is easily removable with a razor knife or drilling out the rivets that hold them in place. I also love the fact that the inner "cushion" pads are removable which makes them easy for a thorough cleaning when regular disinfecting sprays no longer work. I can think of nothing that I would like to see improved on in these shin guards.

Received my Gold chest protector and West top line shin guards last Friday. Worked 13 innings behind the dish today and I am absolutely blown away by this gear. I had been using Honigs top shin guards and West platinum but decided to treat myself when it was time for replacement. Wish I'd made the change years ago. I've never felt more secure and had gear that fit so well. This stuff just doesn't move around once it's on. Glad I spent the extra bucks.
