Oxdog XGUARD LIGHTFLEX

XGUARD LIGHTFLEX is a special model of OxDog shoes designed for floorball goalies. These boots offer you lower weight and lots of other improved features. The upper of the boots is made of lightweight materials. The boots offer excellent ventilation and comfort. A good feature is that the laces are hidden behind the cover. This protects your laces and also improves the slip resistance of your shoes. The lace cover is attached with Velcro on the outside of the foot.

The sole of these goalkeeper boots is naturally divided into two parts - the front sole and the sole under the heel. This makes your feet flexible and allows you to move in a natural way. The split sole makes the boot a little lighter. The sole has really good grip and is slightly raised around the forefoot to ensure good durability of the shoe. So you can also bounce off the toe of the shoe. At the toe, the sole is secured with several stitches with strong thread.

The upper part of the shoe is made of durable nylon. Throughout this part, the shoe has built-in padding that protects the foot both when standing on your knees and when shooting hard. The space between each part of the padding allows for easier sliding. The padding of the goalkeeper boots is a bit thinner, but the quality is higher mainly due to the materials used. You will also find a padded tongue on these boots. The upper part of the boot has a Velcro strap. The upper edge is shaped for a comfortable fit at the ankles and Achilles tendon.

The back of the heel of this shoe is reinforced to provide stability to the heel, but also to make the shoe durable enough. The reinforcement is a mixture of plastic and synthetic suede.

The shoe has a two Velcro system. One zipper helps to secure the ankle and keep the tongue of the shoe hidden. The second velcro hides the laces so they don't untie during moves and damage the goalie. Rubber soles do not stain on any surface, of course.

Technology

• Dual outsole system - Separate outsoles for the forefoot and rearfoot increase the flexibility of goalkeeping movements and reduce the weight of the shoe.
• Flexi shank - The arch of the shoe has been designed to increase flexibility for goalkeepers when moving across the floor, as it allows the forefoot to be used with greater precision when performing the movement.
• Slide Control - The raised rubber outsole on the front and side of the shoe was designed for optimal grip and improved sliding motion.
• Lace cover slide system - Stabilizes the foot during quick changes of motion and when moving side to side.
• U-Frame - Stabilizes the foot during quick changes of motion and quick side-to-side movement.
• Non-marking rubber - The sole leaves no marks on the floor.
