Baseball Helmet: FAQs

What are the different types of baseball helmets?

Every baseball player has unique needs, which is why we offer a variety of baseball helmets to suit different players. Check out these options:

Single-ear helmets: The most popular style of batting helmet, designed for players who consistently bat from the same side. Single ear baseball helmets protect your exposed ear so you can bat with confidence.

Double-ear helmets: For switch hitters, double-ear helmets are the ideal solution. These offer protection on both sides, so you can stay safe no matter which side you choose to bat from.

Full-face helmets: To protect from both pitches and hits, opt for a full-face helmet. These offer complete, 360 protection.

Face masks: With open designs, these masks protect your chin, jaw, and head without covering sightlines.

 

How should a baseball helmet fit?

Shopping for a baseball helmet is no different than shopping for new baseball cleats or gloves. You should look for one that fits comfortably, but is still snug. Ensure there are no gaps between the helmet’s pads and your head.

To make sure your baseball batting helmet fits properly, give it a good shake. If it moves around too much, it's a sign you should try a smaller size.

 

How do I choose the right size baseball helmet?

Whether you’re shopping for a baseball or a softball batting helmet, it’s a good idea to reference a size chart to find your correct size. To do so, measure the circumference of your head just above the ears. Then, find the corresponding size chart for the baseball or batting helmet you’re looking at.

Of course, it’s important to try the helmet on and make sure it fits well, too. If you’re between sizes, explore options for additional padding.

 

What should I look for in a quality baseball helmet?

When choosing a quality baseball helmet, look for the following key features:

Proper fit: Ensure the helmet fits snugly without excessive movement. A secure fit offers better protection.

Ventilation: Look for helmets with good airflow to keep you cool during play.

Padding: High-quality padding provides comfort and helps absorb impact.

Safety standards: Check that the helmet meets safety certifications for optimal protection.

A well-fitting, certified helmet is essential for safety and comfort on the field.
