The safest football helmet on the market, the ZERO1, just got cheaper

One of the safest helmets in football has also become more affordable. To ensure that socioeconomics is not a decisive factor in the safety of football players, VICIS announced price cuts for its ZERO 1 helmets. The price adjustment will be effective in the 2018/2019 season, but the helmet is still quite expensive, with only $ 950, it will be a reduction of $ 600. The Seattle-based company said he hopes to offer helmets to athletes. It also enables team pricing, which further reduces costs

Dave Marver, CEO and co-founder of VICIS, says: "Reducing the price of ZERO 1 is the next step of our continued innovation in football and other sports and we are passionate about putting these protection technologies in the market."

The $ 950 price tag should be worth it. ZERO 1 debuted last year and became the 1st in 2017 NFL / NFLPA helmet laboratory performance test. Seattle Seahawks' Russell Wilson, Doug Baldwin, Alex Smith of Kansas City Chiefs, among others in the national football league are wearing a helmet. Recently, the Notre Dame soccer team announced that it will deliver ZERO 1 helmet to the whole team in 2018.

One of the key features of ZERO 1 is the "reflective layer" of the helmet, just below the hard outer layer. In the event of a shock, dozens of pillars in the layer are bent, compressed and moved. This helps to absorb most of the incident force. VICIS has an Axis Fit system that supports the player's head as firmly as possible, and you can almost personalize it. Finally, ZERO 1 has a form liner layer made in its own form. It works equally with the arch shell to evenly apply pressure across the head.

All of these innovations make ZERO 1 one of the most popular and popular helmets on the market, and now the demand made it possible for VICIS to cut costs. In addition to the new price, the company also offers funding options to make the helmet more affordable.

Helmets ordered by March 30 are delivered by July 31. In other words, VICIS warns that the number is very limited, so people interested in safety helmets should take action as soon as possible.

VICIS Zero 1 helmet looks unique. Unlike car bumpers, this American football helmet is designed to absorb impact and return to its original shape. As Zero 1 is very effective, VICIS helmets have won first place in the performance tests of the helmets laboratories of the recent NFL Players Association. In the test, we evaluated 33 types of helmets that players can use. Helmet is Sam Browd's idea. SamBrowd is the Neurosurgeon and Director of Medicine at the Seattle Sports Concussion Program. When he got tired of telling the young athletes to have no choice but to cut their equipment, he came up with the idea of ​​VICIS.
