The Whistle Shield

Product broke first time I used it. I also heard this from other officials in my area. I would not recommend this product.

It serves its purpose but my partners have noticed a lot of difference in the sound. I never had any trouble with them hearing me before using the Whistle Shield.

The Whistle Shield is 100% better compared to the whistle pouch. It fits the Fox 40 Classic perfect by snapping into place. The only thing I would recommend is probably attaching a ring to the shield for the lanyard.

Big improvement from the fabric protector, which was a waste of money. This fits securely on my whistle & allows for the whistle to be heard and not muffled. Very pleased.

Bought The Whistle Shield and new whistles for my son as a Christmas stocking present. He told me what he needed, and after reading the reviews, chose this one. I hope he will be happy with it.

The Whistle Shield is good because it doesn't distort the sound of the whistle, but I found it to be cumbersome for football officiating because as a football official, you don't keep the whistle in your mouth as you do in basketball. Otherwise, it's great, especially in this COVID environment.

Once you snap The Whistle Shield in place, you don't have to adjust it. I found that the pouch was irritating because it required constant adjustment to move it from rubbing against my lip, which was quite uncomfortable. The Whistle Shield also gives a more streamlined appearance. You quickly forget it's even there.

Great idea and easy to use the product. Nothing perfect in today’s environment but this is simple and makes a ton of sense. Like it better than the whistle pouch I bought.

The Whistle Shield is the best invention since sliced bread. I have used it and it works perfectly. The Fox 40 Classic stays locked and secure in the shield. The sound of the whistle is not distorted. I’m sure other whistle covers don’t meet the expectations of The Whistle Shield. A must buy for every basketball official!

This product does what it's meant to do. Whistle sound is unchanged, which is not the case with either of the pouch products. Easy to put on and doesn't constantly hit up against the lip like the pouch products do. Much prefer this over the other whistle protection products.

Huge improvement from the fabric pouch I bought previously. I can effectively clean and store knowing I can use it again the next day safely. Good sound quality. I would highly recommend to anyone working multiples times per week.

Too big and clunky. Does it work as advertised? Can't tell.

Not impressed. It is clunky (too big), and the plastic is not a good tactile experience IMO. It does work as described but the ergonomics of it left me with an...ehhh.

Works very well with my Fox 40 CMG whistle. The sound quality is surprisingly much better than the fabric covers, so finger whistle users rejoice! Make sure it's on snug - It's fallen off a couple of times when throwing a flag or stopping the clock.

I think The Whistle Shield is going to be great for a regular Fox 40 whistle. I do not use the CMG but I think it would be fine over the rubber mouth piece too. I like the way The Whistle Shield looks as compared to the whistle bag, but you are not buying for looks. I also think it will be very effective in doing what it is meant to do...and easy to clean. It also gives a neater appearance.

I found the shield did not clamp securely on my whistle...it was constantly flying off my Fox 40 finger whistle while handling the football. It does what it is supposed to do otherwise...way better than the fabric whistle covers. A dab of super glue will solve my issues.

This just might be the best new product I have tried. A couple of key benefits I have noticed: 1) the whistle will actually snap solidly into the shield, holding it securely, and 2) there is a hole in the shield to allow you to thread a lanyard through it. Both of these features are EXCELLENT. Good for basketball, and I hope the IHSA approves these for use in the coming season.
