Rheon Elbow Guards
The La Martina Rheon Elbow Guards are designed in close collaboration with a number of influential polo players, taking in to account comfort and performance as well as the latest in technology. In this case, the innovative Rheon material. At the core of the Rheon technology platform is an active polymer which is soft and malleable in its natural state but hardens immediately and temporarily upon impact.
Designed in partnership with Rheon Labs.

Using 3D Printed moulds to create an advanced organic structure engineered using parametric modelling built generative algorithms in combination with the unique Rheon polymer allows it within stand greater forces while being in the thinnest format possible in order not to limit the dexterity of the rider. Its unique shape makes it waterproof, cooling, lightweight and durable. The Rheon technology helps control energy in movement, while the slick long line sleeve design ensures that it is an ergonomic and comfortable non-slip shape for the player to wear. Available in sizes Small through to X-Large, this product is fully CE approved, the first pair of elbow guards to be specifically CE approved for polo wear in the world.
Product Testimonial:
Mark Tomlinson - Professional Polo Player
"The new La Martina Rheon Elbow Guards are super comfortable and unlike many of the others I have tried they don't slip down your arm, staying right where they need to be. The technology behind the actual pad gives that all important protection and the in-built captain's arm band is a great extra!”
