    CLINICAL DATA*

    In a 2-year field study funded by NOCSAE and run by University of Wisconsin Madison with ~3,000 high school soccer players, the Storelli's ExoShield Head Guard reduced the relative risk of concussions by ~50% overall and 60% in females specifically (97-98% risk ratio statistical confidence). Of all the products included in the study, the ExoShield Head Guard was the only product to show any statistically significant benefits.

    The study above represents the largest field study ever conducted on the topic. While the results achieved by the Storelli ExoShield Head Guard are highly encouraging, Storelli believes more research should be conducted to solidify the industry's understanding of the value of headgear. For this reason, we are working to ensure more research is conducted.

    In addition, Storelli cares to emphasize that while top-quality headgear may indeed prove to reduce the relative risk of concussions, it will never fully abate risks. For example, a player may suffer a concussion after a hit to a part of the face not covered by headgear, or the impact may be too strong to be sufficiently absorbed by the protection. We believe we are making positive steps in the right direction, but it's important to understand the limitations of what head protection can do, and the need for more and deeper data analysis.


    WARNING AND DISCLAIMER

    The Head Guard is designed to reduce the risks of cuts and impact to head during participation in soccer, but cannot and does not prevent all risk of head injuries. Participation in soccer and other sports exposes the participant to the risk of injuries, and participation in such sports implies acceptance of such risk.

    No helmet, head gear or head protection device can prevent all head, neck or facial injuries. A user may sustain head injuries (which may include concussions or other brain-related injuries) notwithstanding his or her use of the Head Guard, and there are areas of the head and face that are not covered or protected by the Head Guard. In addition, for maximum performance, the Head Guard must be sized and fitted properly, and replaced promptly if fit loosens over time or falls off during participation in soccer or other sports.

      A must have for players who play tough

      Great find! My son has been wearing Storelli head gear since he was 5/6 years old. He is now 10, about to be 11 years old next month. He has been described as always taking soccer seriously & never holding back. This product is a must have for players who leave it all on the field.

      A must for soccer!

      My day had two previous concussions. This head guard was a must! She played an entire season with it. It blended seamlessly with her uniform. Looked like a sweatband.

      Great protection

      My son has played soccer since he was 5 and has had one concussion. One day after he got his new head guard he took a pretty good ball to his head. He walked away with broken glasses but no signs of concussion. We are glad we can have an extra layer of protection as he grows and plays more competitively

      Wish list for the ExoShield Head Guard in figure skating competitions.

      Hello. In response to your request, I would like to provide the following comments. My wife competes in international figure skating. Recently, she fell and suffered a concussion. This is the reason for this purchase. In our opinion, the rear part which protects the occiput does not descend low enough at the level of the protection and would benefit from being lengthened and thickened. So, she bought 2 of those protectors to provide this extended pritection by adding a part of the secont one to the first one... For the rest, everything seems to meet our expectations. My wife will certainly "decorate" this protection to make it more feminine and visually acceptable. Keep up the good work.

      Great!!!

      Very happy with purchase. My son is a soccer goalie. And we purchased because he got a concussion being hit in the head. He was in a similar situation after purchasing the head gear and received some kick to the head and wasn’t hurt at s as Lo wearing this item. Glad we purchased and very happy with product.

      Best product to keep my Keeper safe!

      As a parent, there is nothing more settling, than knowing your child is safe. The ExoShield Head Guard keeps my boy in the game and protects him from the risk of concussion. I wish more parents took advantage of this product. We tell all of our teammates about it!

      Da seguridad como padre

      Soy papá de portero y me siento más seguro de que mi hijo de 10 años está protegido con los productos storelli. Tiene absolutamente todos los productos Storelli, con excepción de los guantes y le da mucha seguridad. Son de buena calidad, duraderos, tiene la libra de arriba con protección de arquero desde hace 2.5 años y la sigue usando, es garantizada la calidad. Los pants son igual de duraderos, protegen muchísimo y les da certeza a la hora de estar jugando en el campo.

      Order a smaller size

      I read tons of reviews prior to purchasing the headband. Most of them said that the headband ran large and that many people had to buy a smaller size. My son's head measured 22.5" which was at the top of a size 5 and the bottom of a size 6. He also has thick hair. So, I thought surely the size 5 would work. After 1 training session he said it was falling in his eyes the whole time. I then purchased a size 4 which was initially really tough for him to get on, but he says it's perfect once he starts sweating. The sizing is way off. Again, 22.5" head size should order a size 4 headband.
