Questions & Answers

Is this appropriate for a high school senior?

It should fit fine, but it all depends on your senior's size. br>The Senior helmet size, according to Easton, is 6 7/8 - 6 7/8. 7 5/8.

Is this a black with a matte or a shiny finish?

Although this helmet has a matte finish, Easton also has a Z5 Gloss helmet (A168154) if that's what you're looking for!

Is it brown or maroon on the helmet?

It's a deep burgundy color.

For what age group does the senior size apply?

My son is 11 years old, but he has a big head! I'd go with 11 if I had to pick a number.

This helmet is extremely comfortable to wear
5/5

It has a good flow of air. I'm an adult, and my hat size is 7 1/4. This helmet is extremely comfortable to wear. It has good airflow and padding, and you can hear clearly while wearing it. br>br>I bought this to protect myself while counter-terrorism. I walked away without a concussion after protesting some communists, so I give it 5 stars.

That's exactly what we were looking for
5/5

As- Stickers are easily removed with no residue (as pictured) and are in perfect condition as described. The maroon is a dark/dark maroon in color. In case anyone is curious, I took the photo in direct sunlight to give you a better idea. My son, who is in high school and stands 5'10" and weighs 190 pounds, ordered the senior size, which fits perfectly.

The room is light and airy
5/5

This helmet was purchased to replace an aging one, and I wanted something more advanced than a standard batting helmet. I've had problems with ear piece covers ripping off on other helmets, so I'm glad to see that this is no longer an issue. This helmet is a little looser than I'm used to, but it doesn't seem to be a problem. It's also much easier to hear what's going on around me than it was with previous helmets that covered my ears. I haven't worn it yet during the summer, but the extra ventilation areas make me think I won't sweat as much as I did in previous helmets.

It is both comfortable and well-fitting
5/5

My son had four days to get a white helmet for summer league. The majority of white helmets had sold out. A different sporting goods retailer charged $20 more for the same model. I didn't have to leave the house because Amazon delivered in two days, and I saved $20! Everyone seems to be in a good mood! My son has expressed no dissatisfaction with the service. He does have a larger head, but he claims that this fits him perfectly.

So So
3/5

We purchased this helmet after previously owning several of the same model. We play club baseball for almost the entire year. My son is thirteen years old. He enjoys the fit, style, and matte paint on this helmet and would purchase it again. br>The reason for the 3star rating is that the two back pads both came loose and fell off after the second tournament (say 5 games). I didn't want to go through the hassle of returning to Amazon or Easton, so I just used gel epoxy and clamps to glue it back together. So far, the pads have been installed, so I'm not sure if this was an isolated incident with this particular helmet. There is glue dried on the side now, so it isn't perfect, but we replace helmets every six months or so, so it's not a big deal.

The sticker and its adhesive are not removable
3/5

The helmet is nice and of good quality, but they stuck a sticker explaining its features right across the front that is nearly impossible to remove, even with 3M adhesive remover. Easton should be embarrassed for charging so much for these and then sending them out cosmetically ruined right out of the box. Purchase a less expensive helmet to save money.

I'm an adult with the head of a child! LOL
4/5

I'm an adult with the head of a child! LOLbr>I assumed that purchasing a youth helmet would suffice. Despite the fact that this is a Youth helmet, it is still too big for my head. I require the use of a strap (which is not provided). br>Aside from that, it's an excellent helmet! I like the matte finish, and I can make this helmet work depending on whether I'm wearing a bandana or a hat.

Other helmet brands don't seem to fit as well as this one does
5/5

The Easton Z5 2 is a new addition to the Easton family of products. 0 is always a perfect fit (size chart is spot on), durable, and stylish. It is a hit with my son. We ordered the Senior size because he is a tall 12 year old, and it fits him well and has a good feel to it.
