    High socks, the neoprene shin guards posted above, or just learn to tolerate it.

    Mine get scraped up bad, but I pull sumo...

    As mentioned, long socks or pants. I also had very good luck with these:

    Really? I would think deadlifting while hanging from a rope would be really difficult, shin protection or no. Different strokes, I suppose...

    wait, do you hate deadlifts or the damage to shins...???
    Both lol. Deadlifts suck because they are hard but that is the point of them and I would rather have them hard and suck then super easy with no results. Damage to my shins suck because I bleed and it looks not the prettiest with summer and shorts season coming up but I will just get some pants/long socks. Love to shop for new workout clothes!

    I just wear socks to protect just a bit and wear the bruises as a badge of honour. Despite pulling modified sumo, I've only scraped hard enough to bleed twice ever.

    I apologize but based on your picture I'm not sure which person you are. If you're female, get some knee-high socks. Guy... don't worry about. LOL!
