Description

The Cobalt™ Skull Cap or "Skully" is the first hard shell skull cap made just for umpires and designed in collaboration with MLB & MiLB.

Aimed against bat backswings and to add an additional layer of force reduction, the helmet is like a coach's helmet but with enhanced shape, padding and features for baseball and softball umpires.

The shortened bill functions just like an umpire plate/combo (4-stitch) cap. It will fit under all brand or style umpire mask and not just All-Star masks.

FEATURES

Shortened bill fits with plenty of space in any umpire mask
Tough and durable polycarbonate shell
Textured sand matte finish to grip traditional harness (no harness upgrade needed)
Augmented padding in key zones along sides, rear, and top for added protection against bats
Removable padding system is machine washable
Fitted S to XL sizes to fit most head sizes

Great skull cap. I wore it for 4 games this weekend, very comfortable, did not stick to my mask once. I was worried that the skull cap would not be large enough, I wear a 7 3/4 to 8 cap, but the extra-large size fit well. It is about time umpires have a skull cap made just for them. The exterior of the cap gets very warm, doused it with water a few times. If you are on the fence, buy it, it is great.

Questions About This Product

Any opinion on using the Cobalt skull cap with a Force 3 mask? Have you heard of any fit issues between the two?
– John Porada

These two pieces should not present any issues fitting together. The mask harness of the Force 3 Defender will accommodate the increased size of the skull cap very easily. The Force 3 Defender mask, having been originally designed for catchers in mind has the perfect shape to rest on a skull cap. The effectiveness of the Force 3 S3 spring assembly will be greatly enhanced with the additional protective layer of the All-Star Cobalt Skull Cap.
