A protective guard for areas of the shin bone and other parts of the body comprises a flat plate of thermoplastic material mounted on a strip of wrapping material attached to one side of the plate with a flexible adhesive. The plate is formed to the configuration of the area by first heating it on a flat surface such as that of a hand iron. When heated sufficiently the plate may be bent or molded; a layer of insulating material such as a sock is placed over the area and the heated plate then pressed, using wrapping material, into configuration with the area. When cooled and again rigid the plate retains the shaped configuration and the wrapping is then secured about the leg, for example, to hold the plate over the area to be protected. A quick attaching effect is obtained by use of a wrapping material that clings to itself.
