Product Review

When RIP-IT started designing their helmet they were surprised to see just how few options players had. All of the helmet/face guard combos were big, bulky, and awkward. Did they protect you while hitting? Yes. Did they make you a better player? Not really. The problem seemed to be that not a single helmet was designed with the needs of softball players in mind. When RIP-IT set out to design a helmet they targeted what players and parents wanted in a batting helmet, which was for it to fit just right, be lightweight, and offer an unobstructed view of the ball. We all remember growing up and hearing time and again, “keep your eye on the ball.” Vision allows you to do this better than any other product out there. This is because Vision is the first helmet built around designing a better face guard. The result is seeing every pitch, every time, no matter where it is thrown. Vision also incorporates Blackout Technology into its face guard. Blackout Technology eliminates 100% of the glare coming off the face guard and helps you focus on the ball so you can hit like never before. Engineered with dual density foam, this helmet exceeds NOSCAE Standards while offering a comfortable, lightweight, secure fit even while running. The Vision Pro also comes with moisture-management wrapped pads, which wick away sweat, as well as 21 strategically placed air vents. The result? A helmet that you don’t even realize you’re wearing. If that’s not enough, each Vision Pro is backed with a $5,000 Peace of Mind Policy, which will help cover your medical costs in the (seriously unlikely) event of a dental or nose injury from a softball striking the fielder’s mask. They come in a variety of specific sizes and team colors. Find yours today!
