Description

We heard the feedback and went to the drawing table. We took the same materials and performance as our current Guardian Cap XT and made it a sleeker design. The sleek surface allows for customization and the addition of your team logos.

The Guardian Cap is the leading soft-shell helmet cover engineered for impact reduction. It brings a padded, soft-shell layer to the outside of the decades old hard-shell helmet and reduces impact of daily hits. Perfect for interior position groups.

*Helmet is not included.

- Less than a pound
- Augments existing helmets to make them pliable and able to more effectively manage energy, reducing impact and redirecting rotational forces.
- One size fits all. Easily attaches to itself with snaps and Velcro. Does not alter the helmet.
- Easy on, easy off
- Reduce radiant heat from sunlight up to 20 degrees
- Pads blows to knees, hands, abdomen, etc. during inside run and position drills
- Preserves helmets & decals for gameday
- 11 Colors
- Worn by youth, high school and college players

The NFL has mandated Guardian Caps since the 2022 season with expanded use that includes all practices preseason, regular season, and post season that include contact.

Amazing Product

My son is 7 years Old and this is his first year in tackle football.
The guardian cap is lightweight and thickly padded. It is not too heavy for him to wear with helmet. He is super excited because this is what all the pros are wearing, he said! Hia team is ordering decals and the particular Guardian we ordering is perfect for him to have one as well! Great product?? Highly Recommend!!

Thank you!!

Our boys were so angry with us about making them wear the caps. However, at the first scrimmage, our oldest was thrown on the ground pretty hard. We were grateful his head had more padding. After the game, on our way home he thanked us with tears in his eyes. Thank you for helping families protect their children!
