Review request - headgear

everlast75

Hey people.
I used Bollé glasses and a lower face mask mesh, and the combo for me didn't work too well.

I was thinking of trying another idea or two, and whilst I appreciate most people will have different views, nevertheless the community's views are something I would appreciate.

I wanted full head gear protection, and was looking at the following two..

or

Any experiences?

Thanks in advance!

I'm basically in the same boat..very very hard to find something that suits..
But I'm looking towards the below..but it's gonna cost about €150 to buy the mask and then have BitterEnd put a mesh in.



On the other hand I can buy direct from savephace and settle for the lenses..

It really all depends on where you're playing your airsoft.
For an CQB site like the Office..then definitely full face gear..for woodlands etc a good pair of goggles and maybe a shemagh or bavaclava etc to protect your teeth..
Personally I make sure I keep my mouth shut

I've one of the black ones mentioned.
There is not a lot of Nose space in them, ie your nose may touch the inside of the mask. Its snug and comfortable to wear on a cool day though.
peripheral vision is not the best when wearing one like this.
On a warmer day your breathing will cause a lot of moisture to build up
on the plastic around the mouth area which is annoying.

I prefer a full face mesh mask like the Black Bear Rampage masks.
No issues with moisture build up and peripheral vision is better.

Just to say I picked up the first one and had a chance to try it out on Saturday in "the office" in Tallaght. This is obviously an indoor arena and also it was a hot day.

The mask itself worked very well, insofar as it provided good protection (I got shot point blank by a teammate :P)

In regards to ventilation, the mask has a foam surround around the eyses and whilst this part got quite sweaty, it worked well overall. Well worth the money methinks, and don't have to worry about fogging glasses either

I have this mask also its pretty good. Do yourself a favour and take off the bottom bit. I found it seriously restricts head movement and shouldering a AEG.
