Cliff Keen Youth Tornado Wrestling Headgear

I had the opportunity to beta test the F5 headgear 15 years ago (can't believe it has been that long) as a high school wrestler at a camp at the University of Michigan. I was used to the Cliff Keen classic headgear, padding over steel ear cups. Wearing these was like wrestling in air conditioning, they were extremely comfortable with the added ability of being able to hear your surroundings completely. For youth wrestlers you can not go wrong with these headgear. The biggest challenge with kids and wrestling is that they do not want to wear headgear in practice, it's hot, uncomfortable, and if you aren't used to wearing headgear you will want to take them off once you start to sweat, subjecting kids to cauliflower ear. The tornado headgear will solve that, kids who aren't used to wearing them will be much more comfortable in these than traditional headgear. They are a bit pricier than other headgear, they are 100% worth it though, no sewn parts to fray, comfortable, durable padding, strong velcro straps for easy adjustment, simply the best on the market.

I recently bought this product and I'm really impressed with its performance. The quality is top-notch, and it does exactly what it promises. I especially love everything about it, which has made my life easier. It arrived on time and was well-packaged, making the unboxing experience great. Overall, I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for Perfect color size and cheap. Easy to use with perfect size and thick. Comfort is perfect with good adhesive

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. My son is 8 years old and 67.5 lbs and this headgear fits him perfectly (it is easily adjustable). The plastic over the ears allows for breathability and bc of that my son does not complain when wearing it. He has worn this in at least 25 matches and has yet to adjust it during a match (he wrestles on an 'intermediate' level so lots of head pulling lol). I've seen many many kids lose their headgear in the middle of a match! My son has a minor hearing impairment and thanks to the placement/holes in the headgear he can finally hear his coach during a match. He struggled significantly with his last pair (b/c of the padding on the ears) and he could not hear his coach in the loud gym. To me, this is the best part. Do not be deterred at the plastic design! Not only does it protect great, but it is also very difficult for opponents to grab/pull behind the ears/back of the head. All in all - Pay the couple extra $$ and GET THIS!!

Kind of good direction for good actually

My wrestler loves them.

Son’s first headgear. He can hear coaches easily and the straps are soft and never an issue. Other brands had stiff straps that were uncomfortable. Great padding. Easy to clean. Would highly recommend.

Happy with the protection around the ears and ease of the Velcro for adjustment. Are More comfortable than other models.

I am quite pleased with this headgear! I bought this for my 5 year old son in his first year of wrestling and it fits him great with room to adjust and grow! In comparison to other brands of headgear that we have seen in tournaments and at my Sons school, I definitely believe we bought one of the best! It is very comfortable for my son, he can hear just fine with it on and, honestly it looks nice! Also, maybe my 2 1/2 year old daughter has a big head but it can be adjusted to fit her as well. This is only his first season but it still looks nice as the season is reaching its end and I have a feeling he will be wearing it until he grows out of it. When his sister starts wrestling, this is what we will be buying for her as well!

No me quedó porque las bandas son muy cortas, en especial las que van en la parte de atrás de la cabeza, no tienen mucho ajuste; es más para un niño o adolescente con cabeza pequeña. Aun así la parte de las orejas es perfecta, tengo las orejas grandes y se siente muy cómodo, en ningún momento tocaron la parte plástica. Voy a buscar un modelo más grande

Does not fit a an adult
