PRODUCT INCLUDES

• This product is designed and sized to cover the highest impact areas of the skate.
• ShotBlocker intentionally keeps the product below the eyelet stitching as they found that if the product is too close to the eyelet stitching, it is constantly being pulled as the skate lace tightens (this places too much strain on the adhesive).
• The ShotBlocker is 95% molded to your skate, with a final fit to be completed by you. This is why it does not ship immediately.
• REMEMBER to add your skate model.
