  • Tested to reduce skull impact force from a baseball by an average of 50%.

  • Made from lightweight and ultra strong Carbon Fiber and Kevlar; total weight is 1.5 ounces.

  • Worn inside the hat, providing protective coverage for the forehead, temples, and sides of the skull to just behind the ear; which are the most vulnerable areas to impact from a line drive.

  • Can be worn by most baseball players ages youth to 12 without having to use a larger hat size.

  • Secured inside the hat with an iron-on velcro kit (included). Installation takes approximately 5 minutes.

Players with fitted hat sizes over size 7, no matter the age, should use the SST Pro X Gen2 Head Guard, which provide an additional area of protective coverage. Players in leagues age 13+ should also use the SST Pro X Gen2 Head Guards, built for higher impact speeds.
