Questions & Answers

Is the l/xl actually going to fit someone who wears a men's size 8 ?

After trying it on my teenage sons, it fit! It looked more like I had a pumpkin head than my 8 1/4 inch I think it looks good now. No, I don't think so! On the other hand, I doubt this helmet was made for me to shove my huge face into it. It is a lot bigger than my son's old Easton and Marucci helmets, so I took a shot that I hope does the trick

Would you consider it to be matte or glossy?

There's a matte finish to it...

Is the face shield for the youth helmet small enough?

That would seem to be the case

What is the color of the black? Does it have a glossy or matte finish?

It has a matte finish, rather than a shiny one.

In a similar style to the Demarini helmet
5/5

My 9 year old son fits into it perfectly. On this helmet, we used the Demarini Facemask that he used on his Demarini fitted pro There is a way to do it. My son also prefers the softball facemask to the baseball facemask since the former has better sight lines and is lighter, which means less pulling the helmet down over his eyes or blocking his vision. The demarini helmet casts the same shadow/shape as this helmet, but offers slightly better ventilation at the crown of the helmet (not surprising since both Wilson companies are owned). Our observation is that the Evo shield helmet would be lighter than the Demarini fitted pro helmet. In addition, both helmets have dual density padding, but the evoshield has a thinner layer of padding, particularly the spongy padding that is at the beginning of the There may have been a reason why the lightness was so apparent. Both helmets were equipped with the same high density padding, which is more important. Its initial spongy padding is not as dense as demarini, so it won't offer as much custom fit between the sizes as does demarini. As a result, while a demarini helmet offers flexibility of head shape per size, the Evoshield is not able to offer it. It seems to my son that the helmet is a good choice, we are not complaining about To give helmet owners some insight into how it would compare to their Demarini, we wanted to share this information.

I don't think this is the best I really like the design of this helmet
3/5

With one drawback, this design is great. There is some foam on the inside that my son (10), in particular the foam that sits on top of your head, does not like. As he described it, it felt as if it squeezed his head and made the helmet uncomfortable to wear. In order to find out if other kids liked it or wanted it, I brought it to practice. A lot of kids agreed when they tried it on. I didn't like how it felt on my My husband and I returned it since we thought it would be a distraction. the helmet looked great, but it didn't fit as well as it should have. It's low profile and looks good.

This is a great helmet
5/5

My favorite helmet I have ever owned is one of the best I've owned to date in my years of playing organized hardball. A stitched layer surrounds the foam in all the pads on the inside of the helmet, and the helmet is super light. If a helmet does not have this feature, it will have exposed foam, which is irritant, and the foam will wear away and rip. In spite of only wearing it one game, I was very pleased with how it fit. A Demarini helmet that I was hit with about two weeks ago went out of commission after being hit with an 80 mph fastball. So, I bought this one. This video shows how Demarini's helmets stand up to the impact very well (the helmet absorbed the impact extremely well). EvoShield is one of the best brands in their market (I own their shin guard and thumb protector). As well as the Evoshield face/jaw guard, I bought the EVOshield mouth guard as well. There's also an added layer of protection, which is nice. Although the price was a little higher than I wanted to spend, after getting drilled in the dome, I figured what's an extra $20 bucks to keep your head safe? In the next few weeks, I will make sure to update this review to reflect my new opinion.

It wouldn't be right if the WHITE was not white
3/5

Do not do this! There was so much more I could have captured in the It's a strange pinkish tone. When I look at the WHITE, it's not white. I find that so strange. We also play travel baseball, and he already has this helmet in the royal (shiny) blue, so I ordered this because the sports store I normally go to was out of face flaps for Easton helmets (sorry, husband's department). I'm extremely disappointed - If I could get a refund, I'd be happy to return it. There will not be a second time to use it.

The look is clean and athletic, no lollipop head
5/5

Becomes bigger as you run. I especially like the matte blue color of the helmet. A 5' 10" athletically framed high schooler, who wears the adult size, found that it is large. Unlike lollipop heads, the look here is clean and doesn't give your kid that "lollipop" look. Young adults).

There is room for improvement
3/5

There is nothing wrong with the look of the helmet, but the screws fall out frequently, and the company won't Replacing the broken springs was not available at the hardware store, so I went to the hardware store to get new ones.
