surlim Soft Shell Flag Football Helmet for Youth, Black, Size Medium — Lightweight EVA Foam, Ventilated

The Surlim Soft Shell Flag Football Helmet is a lightweight, ventilated padded headgear made for youth 7v7, flag football, and rugby training where non‑contact protection and mobility matter.

This soft shell headgear combines flexible EVA foam padding, enlarged ventilation, and an adjustable fit to give young athletes a lower‑bulk alternative to hard helmets during practices, drills, and low‑impact scrimmages. It is sized by head circumference and includes a chin strap plus rear lace adjustments so the shell moves with the player without restricting sightlines or running form. Note: this product is not a certified tackle helmet and is intended for non‑contact use only.

How does this helmet help during hot summer practices?

The Surlim design emphasizes breathability to keep players cooler during long sessions. Enlarged 10mm vents and multi‑zone airflow channels move warm air away from the skull, helping reduce heat buildup without adding stiffness to the shell.

• Enlarged 10mm ventilation holes for increased airflow.
• Multi‑zone venting directs heat out of high‑pressure areas.
• Lightweight shell and stretch fabric prevent insulation effects.

Will this provide cushioning for routine bumps and contact?

The helmet uses layered EVA foam padding to absorb routine knocks and light contact common in flag football and rugby drills. It cushions impacts from collisions and ground contact, but it is not designed or certified to protect against high‑force tackle impacts like a hard shell football helmet.

• EVA foam padding throughout the shell for shock dispersion.
• Flexible construction conforms to head shape for consistent coverage.
• Suitable for non‑contact training, practice scrimmages, and skill work.

How do I get a secure, comfortable fit for my child?

Sizing is based on head circumference rather than age: M fits 18–20.5 inches, L fits 20.5–23 inches. Use the adjustable chin strap and rear laces to fine‑tune the fit; if the measurement falls near a size boundary, choose the larger size for comfort and breathability.

• Measure around the widest part of the head before ordering.
• Rear lace and chin strap lock the shell in place during cuts and sprints.
• Stretch fabric allows natural head movement while staying close.

What care and usage rules should I follow to keep it performing?

Maintain the helmet with gentle hand washing and air drying to protect the foam and fabric. Avoid machine washing, tumble drying, or exposing the shell to high heat, which can compress padding or warp the shape.

• Hand wash in warm water with mild soap; do not machine wash.
• Air dry in a cool, ventilated area; do not tumble dry.
• Store flat or on a head form to preserve shape between uses.

Who is this for: the Surlim Soft Shell Flag Football Helmet is aimed at youth and teen players who need low‑profile head protection for flag football, 7v7, rugby training, and non‑contact drills. Coaches, youth leagues, and parents who prioritize breathability, light weight, and a close fit will find it useful for practices and controlled scrimmages. If you require certified impact protection for tackle football, choose a certified hard shell helmet instead.
