Cliff Keen Tornado Wrestling Headgear

As a parent of a young wrestler, I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I am with the kids’ wrestling headgear we recently purchased. This essential piece of protective gear has made all the difference in our child’s wrestling experience, and here’s why it deserves high praise: First and foremost, safety is the top priority when it comes to sports, especially contact sports like wrestling. This headgear provides excellent protection for our child’s ears and head during training and competitions. The sturdy construction and high-quality materials offer peace of mind, knowing that our little wrestler is well-protected from potential injuries. The headgear is designed with comfort in mind. Its ergonomic design and adjustable straps ensure a secure and snug fit, preventing it from slipping or moving during matches. Our child finds it comfortable to wear for extended periods, and it doesn’t cause any discomfort or irritation even during intense training sessions. Additionally, the headgear’s lightweight design allows for effortless movement and doesn’t hamper our child’s performance on the mat. It’s essential to have gear that doesn’t feel bulky or restrictive, and this headgear strikes the perfect balance between protection and freedom of movement. The product’s durability is impressive. Despite constant use and regular impact, the headgear has maintained its shape and condition, proving to be a reliable investment that will last through our child’s wrestling journey.

I bought this for my 8 going on 9 yr old son. I was a little hesitant at first because it was an adult head gear, buy my son's head measurement were close to the max measurements for youth head gear. This head gear is GREAT! The foam padding around the ear piece prevents opposing wrestlers from getting a grip on the head gear. My son had a wrestler try to grab in a match and he was not able to do so due to the construction of the head gear. It has a double strap on the top which assures a secure fit and placement when competing. I have seen many kids who have other brands of gear and their head gear will slide around during a match and even slip off. The straps are adjustable which allows for head growth as your wrestler gets older. It has a padded chin strap with sturdy snaps on either side of the chin so it is good for left or right handers. The ear pieces are perforated and allow for air circulation as well as allowing the athlete to hear well. I strongly recommend this product for wrestling and preventing cauliflower ear.

Really good headgear

This headgear is pretty comfortable and stays in place while I roll rounds in Jiu Jitsu. I hadn’t worn any headgear for about two years and developed cauliflower ear and it is extremely sensitive especially after having it drained with a needle. But this headgear really protects my ears, is comfortable and I am able to hear my coach and training partners while rolling. The one complaint I have is the cloth straps absorb a lot of sweat( and can smell) and is a little more complicated to clean than vinyl straps would be. I had to unweave the straps and throw them into the washer( hang to air dry after )then wipe down the styrofoam and plastic padding with a Clorox wipe. It took a little bit to figure out how to reweave it properly and get it fitting to my head again but once I got that down it was easy to dissemble, clean and reassemble. There might be an easier way to clean them but I am always considerate to my training partners and how I smell and I also like to ensure my equipment is clean.

I have a wrestler background years back and started no-gi jiu jitsu a few weeks ago. A few triangles later I decided I really need headgear. Pros: 1) VERY light. As light as the cheapie foam ones we used in HS. 2) VERY comfortable. I've had the hardshell "turtle shell cups" and the cheapie foam ones. This combines the comfort of the foam ones (perhaps even better because this foam is squishier) with the protection of the hardshells. Slippage has been minimal for me, certainly less than the cheapie foams and a little less than the classic turtleshell cups. It's just a grippier foam that sticks to your head and it has more straps than a cheap foamie one. The foam chin strap is a nice touch. 3) Hearing is excellent. Don't really have any difference between wearing it and not wearing it. 4) Safe for my practice mate. It's a hardshell around the ears so it's protective, but it's not like any other hardshell I've used. It gives just enough when you push on it. So it's good for my partner and it's good for me cuz then you don't get the hardshell crushing your head or ear in the situations when it slips a little. 5) Doesn't look horrible. Not like it's going to get you the ladeeyz (or boyz, whatever), but it's better than most. I got the all black one. Cons: 1) Price. Yeah, it's definitely pricey. But yes, I do feel it's a world apart from lower level headgear and I'm glad I splurged. Also, I know someone mentioned that it gives more of a "handle" for people to grab and submit, but it hasn't been an issue for me at all. I'm a wrestler who shoots in and still use my head to help pivot the opponent and so I still get caught in a jillion guillotines and headlocks and triangles or whathaveyou. I've been able to slip out of them not much worse than without it. Just my personal experience. Overall: 9/10. I would prefer an extra strap running perpendicular to the other straps so it can protect my hair from getting caught even more than it already does, but that's a minor issue a lot of grapplers won't have (I have relatively long "fobby Asian-style hair).

Ordered for my 7 year old son. The ear covers are a tad large but the overall fit is excellent. Straps adjust easily. Very comfortable, plus he can put them on and latch them by himself.

Buenísimas orejeras muy resistentes, perfectas para la lucha, recomendado 100%.

Passt super.

Bon produit, néanmoins les attaches sur l'arrière de la tête sont un peu courtes. Je pense qu'il ne faut pas avoir une trop grosse tête lol

Good quality

its big an bulky. could also be a safety hazard for your partner as made of hard plastic on the outside. on the upside its light and comfortable to wear even if bulky. i have yet to try in sparring.overall not happy with it.
