Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between a kick shield and a Thai pad?
A kick shield is larger and held flat against the body or arm — it absorbs the full force of a committed roundhouse, push kick, or knee strike. Thai pads are smaller, arm-mounted, and more mobile — used for combination work involving punches and kicks at varying angles. Kick shields are better for drilling raw kicking power; Thai pads are better for combination sparring sequences.
- How many handle positions does this shield have?
The T15 Noir Kick Shield has multiple strategically placed handles that allow you to hold it at different angles — flat against the body for front kicks, angled for roundhouses, and vertical for knees. This versatility makes it suitable for Muay Thai, kickboxing, and MMA striking drills.
- Is this shield suitable for heavy Muay Thai kickers?
Yes — the dual-layer Shell-Shock GEL and Supremo-Shock foam system is built for hard hitters. The ConvEX Skin leather exterior also resists the cracking and delamination that cheaper synthetic materials develop after extended use with power strikers.
- How should I care for this kick shield?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild antibacterial soap after heavy sessions. Air dry fully before storage. Do not leave in direct sunlight or a hot car, as heat accelerates foam compression and leather degradation. The gel layer maintains integrity when stored flat rather than stood upright under pressure.
