Questions & Answers

Can the mask be fitted in the openings of the helmet or is it designed to prevent the ball from making contact with the face?

It is possible to fit a baseball through the bottom two

What is the strap like on this?

In short, yes. Despite the fact that this face mask came with three directions This strap has point corners. There are two straps one that crosses over the top of the head and one that circumscribes the back. As well as being adjustable, it is also lightweight.

Can this mask be worn with the proper Although I see that an upgrade kit is available as a standalone item (with strap), does this include a basic strap as well?

As part of the mask that I purchased, there was a chin guard attached to the back, as well as a 3 point strap. In order to prevent it from slipping down on the face, it was attached to both sides and climbed over the top of the head.

Is it possible that a baseball will fit through the wholes of the mask if I put it on my son who plays baseball?

There is no way a baseball could fit there. It appears that the gaps in the image are wide, but when they are compared to a child's face they appear smaller.

The surgery I would have needed to undergo for facial reconstruction could have easily cost me thousands
5/5

In addition to saving me from thousands of dollars of plastic surgery, this mask might have saved my life.

I play silver/gold slow pitch for USSSA and this past weekend, the mask finally got worn out after a year of use. As long as an NSA ball has a hardness of 400/44, it would be a rock hard ball. I would have been right-handed had my shot from 3rd not struck a rock and redirected into After a blink of an eye, the play was over and the back of the mask compressed into my head, resulting in no concussion or head injury. Despite the ball striking the mask in an unexpected position, there is no structural damage (no broken welds). The mask simply received a yellow color coating. We were all amazed by how well the device held up, and everyone was impressed that for how devastating the blow was, it didn't have any negative effects It is a $40 product that helped me see and had a chance at life. If you play men's softball at the tournament level, you should buy it If I had run over a rock, I would have had to reconstruct my home for thousands of dollars. The weekend before last, I underwent surgery.

Champ Pro is better at ripping it than you are
5/5

If you need to spend extra money, then invest in the rip it over There is a problem with the padding in the champ Pro masks. The padding is too hard and is uncomfortable for my little girl. As a result, I went out and had to replace all the padding in it with the rip it mask padding, so it ended up costing as much as or slightly more than if I had simply purchased You won't regret spending the extra money if your child plays for any length of time than just one season!.

This book is essential for any player at any level of softball
5/5

The book is a necessity for anyone involved in softball, regardless of ability My softball team is led by a pitcher, and I am a grown-up. Since I was a kid, I wondered why people wore Next, I fractured 3 bones in my face from being hit with a line-drive. As a result, the ball made it all the way back to left field after careening off my right side and hitting my glove before it hit. I was fortunate to catch part of the ball with my glove before it made impact. In fact, I literally had to shift my teeth as a result. My body reached some sort of normalcy after about eight months, and I continue to have nerve damage and pain. You can pitch if you play infield, as you can play infield if you play infield. This is something you need to own.

Perfect for children 7 years old and up
5/5

This is just what my 7-year-old uses to protect her pretty face while practicing Nothing to complain about from her end. The ball we are using is smaller than that tested in the mask, so it doesn't pass through. My experience with this purchase has been excellent.

Having a softball bat is a must for softball players
5/5

In order to encourage my daughters to try different sports, I provide them with different opportunities. wanted to encourage them to stay active, contribute to a team, make new friends, etc. (Things I never had the chance to do as a child) My youngest, 6 years old at the time, seemed enthusiastic enough about softball that we registered her. I have never played softball, or even merely watched softball, so I did not realize that all the equipment required would be a bit overwhelming. Her league didn't require a fielders mask for 6U, but I found everywhere else that suggested them, so I decided it's best to be safe and got her this mask. When she was practicing with FIRST, she got hit with a softball so hard she didn't even notice it. There was no denying the obvious then, that little kids have no depth perception and are unable to understand not to throw the ball full force at 6 feet. It's hard to overstate how important this mask was for my daughter's safety and her love of The mask she was wearing ensured that she would not forever be afraid of the ball if she hadn't had it on. There has been a little more than a year and the mask is still on. In order to keep her mask on her face, she should be wearing her glove while on the field. time she gets hit in the face, which is a lot even now (even in 8U), she turns to me and says, "That's why we have a mask!" A chuckle always erupts from the crowd when she says that. As an aside, I picked this frame because I though the metal construction made the frame narrow and I assumed it wouldn't obstruct her view as much as the others. It's my reason for choosing this one over the plastic fielders' masks. As I have never used a plastic fielder's mask, I'm not sure how it compares to them in that sense. Whether you buy it or not, if you're on the fence about whether you want it or not, just do It's inevitable that your child will get hit in the face during a game, and when that happens, you will be grateful they wore.

I really like it
5/5

This was the first year my daughter played softball, so we had a hard time finding a coach She needs a shield that fits her since she is seven. I found this one to work really well, it is adjustable so she should be able to wear it for quite some time, and it is not too bulky compared to some of the others. There is only one thing wrong with it, and that is that it is a bit more expensive than the others. A good deal of her vision is still intact. The brand is better than most, but it is still able to keep her from being hit by a softball! The product is very good! I would highly recommend it!.

It functions well and is adjustable, but is uncomfortable to wear
3/5

There is an answer to this mask's problem. Although it is very effective in terms of maximizing the coverage of the pads, it is uncomfortable in terms of where they There are visible marks on the face where they push into the face after wearing it for half an inning. As well as its irritating nature, the pads are a bit scratchy. To be clear, the guard itself is perfect, but the spacing — well, it's horrible. This one can be adjusted (even the chin position), which is a great feature.

Mask that is comfortable to wear
5/5

It was a very comfortable place for me and my daughter. I borrow hers when we practice pitching together, but I'll be purchasing my own in the near future. We both thoroughly enjoyed wearing the adult small, which fit my 9 1/2 year old daughter as well as myself perfectly. I will give you some more information, but my daughter weighs 80 lbs and stands 53". It doesn't obstruct her vision, she can see fine with it.
