Storelli ExoShield Head Guard, Military-Grade Head Protection, Foam Padding Headband, Official Headgear of US Club Soccer

Love this headband. Comfortable and adds a layer of safty to my hikes.

Good quality, and it’s good material also washableThe thing is; it has to be tight of course because if not it can fell off but better to double check head size as it can feel very adjusted it only gives you +-1cm or less

Doesn’t look nearly as bad as we thought it would. It essentially just looks like a headband.

I returned this one because of the size but my daughter has worn this brand for years, both styles. Once you get past the not cool factor there is no negatives. Quality is very good, weight isn't enough to make a difference and you can't put a price on protecting your players head. They fit as advertised and will shrink a bit after washing and air drying.

I bought this for my wife who had dementia and loved to walk and walk all around the house. After a fall that that could have resulted in a blow to the head, I started a quest for something she would tolerate wearing. Well, she absolutely loved wearing her “Storelli.” It served its purpose more than once.

This has a padding over the full 360 degrees circumference. Fit is very tight when she first put it on (uncomfortable), but loosens with wear to be almost too big. It doesn't stay in place, and constantly needed readjustment during game. This was definitely a distraction for my daughter.

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.

My 9-year old daughter started field hockey this year. At the beginner level it's really just a bunch of kids crowding around and looking down at the ball, so not unusual for kids to knock heads. I'm a pediatrician and a bit of a worry-wart in general, so probably more conscious than most about concussions and neurological development. There is a lot of concerning data, most notably that the risk of suicide in teenagers is significantly increased in kids who have had 2 concussions in the previous year.Virginia Tech has done an extensive set of tests and ratings for headgear. I went through all of their 4 and 5 star ratings and the Storelli was the best in terms of price, protection, and looks. A kid wearing this headband who takes a conk on the head is expected to be 84% less likely to get a concussion than a kid not wearing anything at all.It does have to stretch out a bit and the kid'll have to get used to it. I found the sizing off the website to be pretty accurate. After it stretches, it looks just like a bit of a bulky headband and is tough to notice especially if your kid has longer hair that just goes over it. All in all, very happy with the purchase and consider it well worth it to protect my daughter's brain.
