Great helmet for my son. Like some other reviews, my son was having many issues with the team assigned helmets. Very uncomfortable and hurt his head. He was even wanting to skip practice. Since getting the helmet, he has loved every minute and hasn't turned back. The helmet fits great, looks great and he loves wearing it. It is on the heavier side but he has gotten used to it and will continue to grow into it. Just ordered the flyte shoulder pads for a Christmas present. Saw great reviews on those so high hopes.
BEST HELMET EVER

Best helmet ever to be made. Comfortable, durable, lightweight, what else can you ask for in a helmet. This is the best helmet for a RB, WR or a DB. I give it a 5/5.

This helmet was truly the best the comfort the protection and how it can go with any visor is great. Also the helmet is very lightweight so you can run extra fast with it and look around for defenders.
LOVE IT

I was very nervous about my 6 year old playing tackle. This helmet helped put me at ease. My now 7u player loves it. My 11u player says it's the best helmet he's ever had.
AMAZING HELMET - 9 YEAR OLD

Amazing. After many other manufacturers were on backorder with helmets, I checked out Xenith. I went with the Xenith Shadow XR because of it's really high reviews on Virginia Tech's safety results - and also because my 9 year old loved how it looked. It IS a bit heavier than other options, but that is more than offset by its overall comfort. Last year we went through 3 or 4 different team-assigned helmets trying to find one that didn't hurt, and even the one we settled on still was really uncomfortable for him. The Shadow XR has been great. I love the connection of the bottom chin-strap circling around the "guts" of the helmet so everything is pulled in nice and tight. He's been wearing it 3 weeks now and even with full contact still hasn't even picked up any nicks or scratches, which is a testament to the durability of the paintjob. We've recommended it to a handful of other kids on the teams and I plan on buying another one for my younger son when he starts playing as well. Also - the colors were almost dead onto the other manufacturer's color that the rest of the team is using.
BEAUTIFUL HELMET

12 year olds son has had this helmet a short period of time and he loves it. Says he nearly feels the helmet on the inside. That it feels like it’s floating. Will definitely recommend this to anyone. Is a bit heavier than the epic he had before from here but heavier in my opinion isn’t a bad thing.
THE BEST

The protection of my son and his brain make this helmet well worth the cost! The fit and new technology in the shadow xr is far superior to any helmet I've ever seen.
My son's team purchased all new speed flex helmets last year. Although they are more comfortable than the old riddell helmets I used to wear, the air bladder technology is essentially the same. My son took a couple big hits that year, and because I had a few concussions myself, I began to research alternatives. When I began looking at the shadow xr, I was immediately impressed with the impact test results, tech videos and reviews.
Through the design portal, I was able to get the face mask he wanted and additional sizes of cheek pads. Upon receiving the helmet, we were both impressed! The unique chin strap creates a custom fit to his head. The weight is balanced, so it feels lighter than it actually is. The shape allows for a fuller range of motion with is head/neck.
Now for what really matters -playing QB, RB & DE, my son has certainly taken some big hits again this year. However, now when I ask him how he feels, he tells me he barely felt the impact. Obviously no helmet will eliminate the possibility of a concussion, but this helmet certainly appears to minimize the potential for one. I highly recommend protecting your child with the xenith shadow xr helmet!
GREAT PRODUCT

The Zenith Shadow XR Youth helmet is a great product. The kids say they are extremely comfortable, the fit like a glove, and the weight is distributed evenly. The astetics of this helmet is second to non in my opinion as it should age well.
INCREDIBLE

CHEAP SHOT TO THE HEAD

I have always been a believer in Xenith helmets. Recently my 12 year old was playing in Dallas against older and larger kids he was holding his own so well that with 3 minutes remaining in the game he was blindsided with a violent helmet to helmet collision to the back of the head that took him to the ground, so bad that parents were enraged and the referee's had to call the game. I wasn't worried about the game I ran out on the field where my son was sitting up next to the penalty marker asking why did the kid do that? I quickly checked him out and realized how Xenith had come through with excellent protection. This helmet is amazing. Thank you for protecting my son from Helmet to Pads.The picture of him blocking the kid that later hit him.
GREAT

Hopefully we will actually get to play football because this helmet is pretty nice. It was easy to adjust and fits great. My son is on the low end of the medium, so I got extra cheek pad sizes. It fits perfectly now, and as his head grows I can swap them out with the smaller ones.
My son said it feels better on his head than the competitors' helmets, which is obviously important. More importantly for me are the incredible safety ratings though. Certainly not an inexpensive purchase, but if it performs as well as its rated, it'll be a great deal.
AMAZING
