How is the sizing of the Revgear Defender Shin guards. What size is recommended for a 12 year old boy, whose calves are 12 inches

Measure the size of the shin pads with respect to His shin length. The measurement is from just below the knee cap to the ankle bone. In his case it would be a smallS - 13" or belowM - 14"L - 15"XL - 16" or above

I don't have kids so I would advise you to go to a retail store first and get him sized there then come back and buy some on line. Sorry I can't be much help.

I have the XL's, and my calves are about 18in and I'm 6' 1" and they fit nicely. The insteps cover nearly my whole size 13 foot, so for the 12 year old boy I would say a medium should fit him well and last until he's about 16 before they are too small.

Check out the link to revgear's site: http://www.revgear.com/product/defender-gel-shin/shin_guardsUnder the image there is a link that says "size chart" on there it says XS for 11.5" shin, and S for 12.5". I recommend the Small, as he is a growing lad :-)I hope that helped. Osu!

My calf size is 16.5 and the socks fit perfectly. I can insert the shinguards without a problem (this are ~ 3/4 thick shinguards). I hope this answers your concern.

I would suggest the smaller size. 11-13 they have padding and adjust. That is the size I bought for my niece of almost 5 years old. My daughter is 7 and she wears the larger size and loves them.

Body weight and height are not necessarily good in sizing yourself for shin guards. It does not address if you are a person with a large calf and thigh muscle. Nevertless, XXL would be about your size.

About 12"...they fit my son's leg guards even with the knee savers attached.

Hi Elaine, I guess it depends on the size of your 12 year old. I measured my head, I'm 5'3", and the circumference around my forehead/back of head is 22". There was quite a bit more room to dial the helmet "harness" to fit a smaller head. I would say I dialed my helmet to a bit smaller than halfway and there was still plenty of "dial it smaller" room. I think a 12 year old girl would be delighted with the helmet, it's very pretty, and from a safety perspective has good visibility for motorists when cycling on the road.

I bought a large for my 12 year old grandson....he is heavy set though. I would say small for the 7 yr. old and medium for the 12 year old, unless he is heavy set in which case I would go for the large. He loves them.

My 7 year old is using a Pro 23 and he is average or slightly shorter than average. See if they offer size recommendations.

I don't think they would fit over the of the average calf with a mx boot on. I would say most mx boots offer good shin protection and would work well a smaller knee pad but are way to restrictive for mountain biking which these are built for.

Idk but I doubt that the shin guard would be big enough. For kids it is 4 in long. For kids it fits about 3 shoe sizes so maybe the same for adult.

Hard to say since that is right in the middle of the Two. The 4 has a large foot, and could stretch to fit the 12. It it was a size 11 I would say for sure get the size 4 but since it is a 12 it could really go either way. Also make sure you take into account for shin guards or other types of padding. I can't give you a 100% accurate answer, but if it was me I would go smaller first since the material is stretchable.

I'd go for "large", just enough to protect the whole shin. Enough room for ankle braces / wraps (recommend for extra protection ligaments / tendances, bones, tenderness) on footing of the elastic bands. Be safe, have fun. Remember, kicking with the top of the foot. Talk instructor, or research types of kicks on YouTube.

I'm 5'7" and the only thing I've got to say on the negative side is that the gear runs on the short side. Given your length, I'd go large. Besides, just make sure the order is fulfilled by Amazon you can easily return then for an exchange. If you've got the cash, you can even buy one in each size, try them on, and return the one you don't like. Still, large is my bet for you. The most important thing is to make sure you've got the right fit for the wrist guards, and these are some of the best I've used. The design is ergonomic, the fit on the lower hands is great, the guards for between your thumbs and hands is great, and the wrist extensions are solid. A bump on a shin or a scrape on an arm can heal quickly. A broken wrist because the guards don't fit right or give you proper coverage given the length you likely have on me, probably a good 2.5" reach each arm, go large and send them back if they're not right. You don't have much to lose if they're right the first time. Hope that helps. Good luck!

My son is 7 years old and uses same size cleats. I bought the M 10-12 youth and they were a slightly big but preferably than too small. Hope this helps

My son is 7 and about 4ft, bought him the x-large. They are a bit large on him compared to what other kids on his team wear, so they might be ok for your son. It's a shame the sizing is so vague with these things :/

I would get the small, my 9 year old is 4'9" and wears a size 12 pant and the large size of these fit him well. I do have to say I sent these pants back, though, the pads are very thin and seem to offer little in the way of protection from any substantial impact. I went with an Under Armour pant for this season and have been happy with Nike in the past as well.
