Product Testimonials

I do actually like it a lot. We got into contact the other day and on the first play, I took head to head contact. I really didn’t even feel anything, it was really nice. It feels very comfortable – it barely feels like it’s on, just feels like you have the helmet on.

The G8RSKin Shiesty allowed me to make key plays on the field while feeling confident and protected. Given the chance to take the G8RSkin Shiesty into collegiate play, would you take it with you? “For sure! Things get heavier at the collegiate level, so it will be a nice thing to take with me.
