Storelli ExoShield Soccer Head Guard, Protective Padded Headgear

Looks cool and hopefully protects my kids. Told the coaches if they wanted my kid to play he had to wear it. Had issues with a few coaches making fun of the headband saying it would affect heading, didn't really work, etc....one of the coaches boasted that in his 40 years playing he only cracked his skull once...that is once too many for me. Looked into protective head gear when we played a team that made it mandatory for all players. Storelli does a great job at having a stylish piece that is protective. Others look like something a wrestler would use (orthodontic head gear-esque) and others look too small to be an effective deterrent. Aside from protection it is practical. I love that I can throw it into the washer and dryer, it comes out smelling clean and like new. I have three boys ages 13-16, they have been wearing the Storelli ExoShield for the last 3 years. No problems heading, etc. Biggest problem has been dealing with coaches and the stigma from that...boys want to impress the coaches, as teens they don't care so much about the parents, so? I reminded the coaches that this item may protect my child, if he isn't wearing it because of a coach's comment and gets injured I will be coming after said coach...Yes, it is that bad. Meanwhile: Other parents always ask me where to buy, etc. Be the trend setter. In my opinion, they look cool and intimidating, all while protecting you. Would be nice for the coaches to get on board and maybe even have a player endorsement or two. I think that it will be as synonymous with soccer as shin guards and cleats...it should be.

Used as a head guard for my son during curling practice. The expandable band thanks to Velcro closure is appreciated since it actually fits his head - we had difficulty with other bands due to his head circumference. Not too bulky and fits nicely under a hat for on ice practice. Holds up well to sweat and cleaning.

I bought the Storelli ExoShield Head Guard for extra impact protection during play. It provides solid padding, but there is room for improvement in comfort.

I am an adult using this while ice skating. My head measures 21 1/2, and I bought a size 4. It fits, but it feels a bit tight. I am not sure if a 5 might slip off, though. I am not sure if it will stretch. I am not sure it the tightness will make it uncomfortable. I wish I had ordered both a 4 and a 5. The item seems well made and is fairly cushy, and about 1/2 inch thick. It says it is machine washable. I am an adult woman. Maybe if it is worn adjusted down a bit in the back, which is like the image in the description, it will be OK. I hope this helps someone. ***UPDATE!!!*** I used it twice and it is great. It feels like it is made from a firm memory foam and it is comfortable for me. The first day I thought it would be too tight, but it's not. You don't want this to be loose or it might not protect when needed. Good product. I have not fallen and hope not to, but I feel this product will cushion my head fairly well if necessary.

BUY THIS! Bought this for an elderly person with balance issues. That person loved the fact that it looked like athletic gear instead of a crash helmet, and it provided much of the same protection, as far as falls go. This headband literally extended that person’s life for a couple of years due to it protecting the head during falls. The material is thick and somewhat rubbery in a good way. Would recommend to any person at risk of falling.

This is in my opinion an excellent product, lightweight and sturdy, and it came as described from Amazon Resale. However, Amazon Resale mailed me the incorrect size. I am not downgrading my review of the item, but "buyer beware."

I plan to use this for ice-skating, but it was too tight and caused discomfort on my head. I also wasn’t totally convinced this would protect my head if I fell on the ice.

Love it 😍. It does stay in place as long you have the right measurements. If you have a ponytail take that in consideration to fit right. You want a tight fit. Light and comfortable. 👍 Lise

Mon tour de tête est 56,5 cm donc la grandeur 5 aurait dû faire mais il est trop petit de beaucoup (entre avec difficulté sur ma tête. Retour facile.

Excelente protector, para antes o después de una lesión.

サッカーの練習で１年生の細身の息子が頭部を打ち付けたりお友達とぶつかったときにでも大丈夫な物がないかなと探していてこちらの商品にたどり着きました。調整可能だと勘違いして購入しましたが、シンプルで金具などもなくさっと被れて使いやすいそうで頭部もちゃんと守れている様です。

Demasiadooooo rígida para el fin que tiene. Y muy apretada checar bien la talla e incluso pedir una talla más

Excelente producto.
