More than just sports protective gear
Week in Week out we hear of injuries picked up while playing sport, knocks that keep players detached from playing the sport they love, for weeks, months or even years.

But some times in more serious cases people who are born with medical defects, develop a condition or suffer from an injury that prevents them from participating in sport or even getting through everyday life. The biggest concern in some of these cases when getting involved in contact activities is that the area is exposed to impact. For example Kidney Problems, Spleen injuries, Defib or Pacemaker implants, Missing or weak bone structure in areas protecting the heart and other internal organs are all cases where protection is vitally important if medically cleared to play sport. Or in rarer cases babies born with a severe defect such as EctopiaCordis, where a child is born with the heart partially or totally outside of the thorax. Survivors of EctopiaCordis undergo surgery to reconstruct the chest with tissue bone and muscle.. From the most common to the most serious we all know of someone who has suffered. If you or someone in your life has suffered any of the above then you might want to keep reading.

Evoshield who have been providing custom forming sports protection using the worlds newest and most innovative technology have been developing light weight protection for a wide variety of sports. Evoshield have adapted this technology to provide individuals who have been burdened by injuries or medical difficulties with custom protection that allows each of them to return to their active everyday lives.

EvoShield features a revolutionary Gel-to-Shell Technology that custom forms to each individual's body. When the soft, pliable shields are removed from the foil bag, they react with air and begin to harden, taking the shape of that individual. Once hardened, EvoShield's protective Shields disperse the force of impact rather than absorbing it like outdated foam and plastic protection. Evoshield work with each individual to provide a custom tailored solution that fits his or her particular need. Their dispersion technology allows them to minimize the bulkiness of traditional protection without sacrificing the protective benefits. This ultra-light, slim and comfortable protection can be worn every day.

Even though Evoshield was born in the U.S, thankfully you don't have to travel the world to avail of the protection. Evoshield's Eu distributor is based in Ireland.

A full range of evoshield self fit products are available online through www.evoshield.ie. If you need to discuss customised protection you can contact [email protected]
