This helmet works surprisingly well, especially for its price point. I received this helmet as part of the team issued uniform for one of my seasons in the royal blue color way and it was very vibrant. It matched the team colors perfectly. It also serves and works its purpose tremendously, as I never received any major head injuries, despite being in a physical league. The cushioning just above the ear area has to be my favorite as it is very shock absorbent. I feel this area of the head is one of the most important when it comes to padding due to the amount of contact that can occur there.
I would definitely recommend this helmet for both beginner players and advanced players looking for a deal on a helmet. The price point is unbeatable for its quality.
