I'll agree that it doesn't say what the shin guards have to specifically have on them, just that they cover the knee when squatting. (DYB rules, 1.17) It seemed more of a common sense thing to me at the time. If I'm worried enough behind the plate about getting hit in the ankle/instep to wear plate shoes or shin guards with a instep plate, then the catcher should definitely have the protection.
