30 NFL teams and over 35 NCAA teams have already committed to the new helmet for the 2024 season. LIGHT Helmets are manufactured using the same materials, technology and engineering as protective headgear used by the military for soldiers in combat as well as by professional race car drivers.

LIGHT GLADIATOR/ATK was also ranked 5 Stars by the Virginia Tech Helmet Rating System, considered the gold standard in safety and performance. It’s Summation of Tests for the Analysis of Risk score is based on a helmet’s performance in a series of impact tests. In addition, the helmets have been approved by the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment for use by colleges, high schools and youth leagues across the country.

LIGHT Helmets are the first helmets to address superior player performance and protection through the reduction of weight. Depending on specific configurations, most LIGHT Helmets weigh 3-4 pounds, which is approximately 40% lighter than the average football helmet offered by legacy companies. This reduces the potential impact of blows to the head as well as head/neck strain and player fatigue.
