The most intelligent, balanced, and comfortable football helmet in the game.
Xenith Shadow XR is Top-Performing on the 2020 NFL Helmet Test and 5-star rated by Virginia Tech.
The adaptive fit system with RHEONâ„¢ cells and jaw pads ensures even, uniform pressure distribution on the head. This makes Shadow XR optimally comfortable, while still offering top-performing protection and a secure fit, with no hot spots.
The novel polymer shell of shadow XR is 10% lighter than traditional materials and withstood over 10,000 simulated hits in the lab to ensure your helmet is top-performing for years to come.
Elevates your play with even weight distribution, a low center of gravity, and a titanium facemask.
Large vents at front and rear of shell along with purposeful RHEONâ„¢ shock geometry allows cool air to flow over the head and hot air to escape.
The Adaptive Fit System is comprised of the 1. Internal Shock Matrix and the 2. Integrated Chinstrap. The Internal Shock Matrix conforms to the head with even, uniform pressure for a custom fit every time you tighten the chinstrap. This movement is enabled by the 3. Decoupled Shell, which is strategically attached to the shock matrix in 4 key locations.
RHEON cells shear to control rotational impact energy, reducing the movement of the head.
RHEON cells compress to absorb linear impact. The cell design, with re-entrant geometry, concentrates more material at the impact site to slow down the hit.
We utilized RHEONâ„¢ re-entrant geometry to create a castle-shaped cell that cushions low-speed impacts, but intelligently strengthens for high-speed impacts. *RHEONâ„¢ shocks will be grey in production helmets.
All Xenith helmets are top-rated on the NFL Helmet Test and Virginia Tech test. All Xenith helmets feature our patented Adaptive Fit System providing a custom fit every time you put on the helmet and providing coaches and equipment managers with an ease of fit and transferability year after year.
Costa RicaFirst off Xenith's customer service is amazing! You are in good hands as the willingness to help is always there, fast response, and patience to clarify any inquiry. Regarding the helmet it feels heavy on the hand, but not so once you have it on. It looks really nice both inside and outside. The fit is amazing! I was a bit concerned as I am an M and at the very start, but once I put it on it feels great and has room to adjust. Also the packaging says a lot about the company and how they take care of their products Loved the fact it came with a bag
United StatesIt’s an amazing helmet I love the fact that you can get a perfect fit with the chin strap also it just looks and feels great, Great product !
