Safety and comfort are at the forefront of thinking for today’s football players around the country, and with the new Schutt ION 4D football helmet, those two areas are at the top of the list. The Schutt ION 4D helmet has many outstanding features that is drawing many rave reviews from players across the country. Starting with the faceguards, the Schutt ION 4D is stronger than others, which means it will last longer and is a better bang for the buck that you would spend on a helmet.

The helmet is already in use by many NFL players, and also boasts a new piece of equipment that has safety at the forefront. The helmet has a faceguard that is actually on the helmet shell, not attached to it. It also has shock absorbing “Energy Wedges” that take away the force of impacts to the faceguard. When checking out this great new helmet, you’ll also notice a new type of cushioning material known as SKYDEX, a better and more modern padding in the helmet that is much better than the old traditional padding. The SKYDEX2 is another type of cushioning that the helmet can use that outperforms traditional foam in every aspect of helmet performance.

A final great advantage to the Schutt ION 4D is that the helmet fits right out of the box. You won’t have to spend hours working it in to place to try and fit you, it fits right away! While players around the NFL are using the helmet, there are 11 top college programs that are active in wearing the helmet, including Virginia, Syracuse, and Penn State.
