HS-7900 — Its unique style enhances the looks and performance of the HS-7900. Innovative “Forceflex flow through” injection-molding manufacturing technique bonds the frame directly through the lenses to set a new standard in durability and safety. The optically correct, high-impact shatter-proof polycarbonate lens has 100 percent UV protection and is coated for anti-fog and anti-scratch resistance. MSRP: $39.99
HS-3000 — The HS-3000 is a shock-absorbent eye guard that is designed for ultimate protection. The high-impact, one-piece, shatter-proof polycarbonate lens has a curved shield design for maximum peripheral and excellent down vision. The shock-absorbent brow bridge has a padded nosepiece protector, and the side pads are fully removable to allow for a custom fit. The lenses are coated for anti-fog and anti-scratch resistance. The various colored lenses available allow optimum vision in all lighting conditions. MSRP: $21.99 (clear), $24.99 (smoke), $26.99 (rainbow metallic)
HS-5500 — This is a unique, sleek-fitting close contoured eye guard. The curved, sleek shield is designed for maximum peripheral and excellent down vision. The high-impact, one-piece, shatter-proof polycarbonate lenses are coated for anti-fog and anti-scratch resistance. Numerous colored frame and lens options are available to allow for optimum vision in all lighting conditions. MSRP: $29.99
HS-7200 Lite — Now available in Bangerz’ new proprietary injected resin, which gives the advantage of the ultimate protection of the traditional wire cage and the benefits of weighing 3.2 ounces. The stretched “cat eye” wire configuration and sleek profile gives players maximum field of vision and excellent ground ball vision. A strategically positioned rear vertical side bar prevents the possibility of ball or lacrosse head penetration. MSRP: $54.99
Lux — This new goggle features a patent-pending swivel clip and flexible frame that allow the Lux to fit almost any shaped face comfortably. Black stainless steel wire makes this goggle super light with the best vision. Wire configuration provides superior peripheral vision. The strap splitter allows the player to position the strap comfortably over the ear and still split the strap to disperse pressure. MSRP: $55
Vantage — A low-profile design provides an unobstructed view for maximum vision. Contoured foam allows for maximum airflow to the face. Open cage allows for unrestricted performance in foul weather. Integrated dual head strap design provides a tight fit. Lightweight design reduces slippage during play. MSRP: $39.99
Poly Air — Cascade calls the Poly Air “sophistication and innovation wrapped up in a little package that delivers ultimate comfort and vision.” The low-profile, aerospace-grade stainless bar allows crisp downward and peripheral views of ground balls and upfield action. Co-poly frame with anti-microbial fit-foam delivers reduction in weight for all-day comfort. The feminine frame contours, and the V-strap design provide a precise and comfy fit. MSRP: $44.99
4Sight Ti+ — Thirty percent lighter than the 4Sight+, the Ti+ has STX’s exclusive, oval-shaped wires across the face for enhanced vision and impact resistance. It also features a low-profile design for minimal visual interference in all directions; titanium wires for better visibility and less weight without sacrificing protection; form-fitting contoured silicone that molds to the face for maximum comfort, fit and cleaning ease; and an antimicrobial agent to minimize breakouts due to perspiration. MSRP: $89.99
4Sight+ — Features include STX’s exclusive, oval-shaped wires across the face for enhanced vision and impact resistance. It also features a low-profile design for minimal visual interference in all directions; form-fitting contoured silicone that molds to the face for maximum comfort, fit and cleaning ease; and an antimicrobial agent to minimize breakouts due to perspiration. MSRP: $64.99 ($59.99 youth)
Horizon — The Horizon is a polycarbonate lens goggle with STX’s exclusive silicone. It features a compact, low-profile design for maximum vision in all directions; form-fitting, contoured and flexible shape for superior comfort; a silicone nose bridge that molds to the face for maximum comfort, fit and cleaning ease; and an antimicrobial agent to minimize breakouts due to perspiration. MSRP: $44.99
Triumph XP — For the improved Triumph XP, Brine overhauled the interior lining and replaced it with a safety, comfort-fit system. The liner replaces all interior memory foam, providing pillow-soft comfort while protecting from dangerous contact. The custom 360 dial fit utilizes an infinitely adjustable interior fit ring — for any size or shape head. Aggressive facemask configurations deliver the best sightlines. The jetstream cooling system offers 21 aerodynamic vents. MSRP: $180
CPV — The CPV features a low-profile visor, shell and chin that are tailored to accommodate a wide range of head sizes, along with an EPP liner and dovetail liner system with SPRfit. SPR (Swiss Precision Ratchet) allows the wearer to adjust the size and get perfectly fitted in seconds, one-handed. A chevron mask design makes all the difference for looking downward and upfield. MSRP: $139.99
PRO7 — The Pro7 features the Seven technology liner system, which laterally displaces energy from a direct impact, reducing the effects of G forces, a major cause of concussions. The SuperMono design uses the shell as a stress member to manage the energy from a frontal impact and also shifts the weight load back to make a superior balanced helmet. The ProFit sizing system allows for easy adjustments between XS and XL. The new Tungsten mask design opens up the view of the field. MSRP: $224.99
CPX — Cascade calls the CPX “pure high performance packed into a one-size, fully adjustable fit so you are ready to throw down.” It’s offered with classic black, Chromanium or Titanium mask. MSRP: $189.99
Venom — The Venom combines maximum protection with superior fit. The air bladder technology has been proven at some of the top levels of contact sports, such as professional football. The air fit system adapts that technology to lacrosse helmets without adding any extra weight or bulk. The Venom comes equipped with 23 vaporflow vent holes that keep the helmet breathable and lightweight. MSRP: $189.99
