    shin protection

    I ran into a cement bench at night on the beach last week. I got back to the mountains yesterday and when i put my boots on realized it is right on the tongue of my boot and kills.

    Any thoughts on some soft shin protection i can put on until this open wound heels?

    2nd the eliminator. It’s nice to have a set in the quiver. i’ve used them variously a handful of times over the yrs and they can be ski day/vacation savers

    3rd the beer coozy. Accidentally fuskered my Intuitions leaving them too close to an electric baseboard heater and coozy made them skiable until I could replace them.
