Liiteguard is founded by a former professional football player and a sports physiotherapist.
The idea for the product originated in June 2016, when Christopher Geertsen sought out physiotherapist Nicklas Falkesgaard to get help for his long-standing knee problems. Along the way, they came to talk about some of the problems they both had experienced over and over again with many footballers. The mission was to create a product that could solve some of these problems.

Via our background in professional football, we had both experienced our fair share of injuries and complications related to the lower leg. Sore or tense calves and Achilles tendons after an intense match or training is a very normal phenomenon, much like how most can probably nod in recognition of cramps in the calves after intense activity.

The original idea behind the product, however, was created on a completely different foundation, and had nothing to do with injuries. We both had countless times stood in a dressing room just before a match, and seen players put on shin guards. – or that is to say; put on something to compensate for a shin guard. Over the years, we had both seen more creative solutions of fluctuating quality, but what was most often seen was the use of both sock tape and underwrap to keep the shin guard in place.
