The full length cut resistant goalie leg tube and slash guard powered by Zoombang are now for sale on our site!

Things we never think of! I love playing the game and never think about catching some deadly infection. I had a parent come up to me recently when I was showing our socks to a team. She told me her son had nearly died when he contracted a STAPH infection. Being a parent myself, this really got to me as her son is now my son's age. I work with some of the most talented people I have met that make my products. They also invented Micro-Texpur the Eco-Green antimicrobial that we treat all our gear with. Micro-Texpur kills STAPH on contact. We keep striving to be the best not only in cut resistant protection, but also in giving players protection from the things they can't see. Please take the time and read about Micro-Texpur.
We have your best interest in mind.

The team at Tuff-n-Lite Hockey are very excited to introduce our latest innovative product! We had been asked to design a piece for goalies and are launching our full leg goalie tube in a couple of weeks. The same high performance fibers that are in our socks are used in this ankle to mid-thigh leg tube. It will be one size and for the younger goalies they can fold down any extra material so that it fits. Bonus is as they grow into those strapping 6'2 goalies we can never score on, it will still fit. I have designed the leg tube to be used with a garter system or under a compression short. Having spoken to NHL trainers and finding out most goalies wear garters. that is how I went about designing it. Feel free to get in touch with me at david@tuffnlitehockey.com if you would like more info.

The Vancouver Canucks farm team, the Manitoba Moose of the AHL will be skating in our protective gear this up-coming season.
They are the first AHL team to make protective skate socks mandatory for their players. They compared our Tuff-n-Lite skate socks to others on the market made of Kevlar and we were chosen to protect all the players. Their goalies will be wearing our new full length cut resistant ankle to mid-thigh goalie leg tubes.
We are proud to be have been chosen'

I started this "quest" of making a cut resistant protective skate sock when I saw an NHL player get cut and almost have his career ended. That was my "blink" - my eureka moment. I just got back from some shows in Toronto and met coaches and parents of young kids and teens who have been cut. Pisses me off that it happened to them. Really does. Happened before there were cut resistant skate socks. I am a dad and would do anything to protect my son. My protective socks will prevent serious injuries to players and just as the NY Rangers have made my sock mandatory, the minor hockey associations should be looking to do the same. We really have to step up and work at making sure all our kids are wearing this protective gear just as they have to wear a helmet and neck guard. PLEASE if you are an association get in touch with me and lets work together! As parents we ahve to educate the boards there are new innovative options protective options out there.
There, you have my rant and venting. Hearing the stories and seeing the scars really bothered me....let's see what we can do to prevent further injuries.

Michael Cammalleri says the protective skate socks helped him avoid serious injury.
"I had a blade go right through my boot," Cammalari said pointing to his ankle. "when I took it off, there was a red mark, but no cut."

Our protective skate socks have protected two NHLer's from serious injury.

Our mission is to protect all players at all levels from skate cuts.
