Today our guests are Emily and Kayla from Oneiric Hockey.  They were finalists in the Lion’s Lair competition this year, and they have also been on Dragon’s Den Canada.

The product they have designed is a protective base layer that holds shin pads securely and conveniently.  They launched towards youth initially, and there was demand for an adult line for players and goalies.

The main protective focus is on the back of the leg and the calf, as well as a cut-resistant ankle.

The idea came about as a university project.  Based on multiple injuries to the back of the leg, and the feel of hockey equipment, as well as the process to get ready,  led to the design of the product.
