A FEW NOTES:
Proper fit of a helmet is important. The protective characteristics of a helmet are greatly reduced if improperly fit to the player. We only recommend purchasing a helmet online if you are sure of the size and style that fits your player best. Kevin Smith’s has qualified people on staff and their prices are very competitive.
Dick’s Sporting Goods and Kevin Smith’s offer a starter package for new players (depending upon their size). This can provide a pretty good savings to purchasing each item separately.
More expensive equipment will not make someone a better player! Comfort is important.
