“After my experience with a competitive helmet in early 2022, the LIGHT Helmet LS2 is the helmet that I now choose. I wore the LS2 in every practice and every game last season and the LS2 is the best helmet money can buy”. - Cam Rising, University of Utah QB
“LIGHT’s entire line of products transitions proven technology from the battlefield, military aviation and professional auto racing to cutting edge sports helmets and headgear. There is no better solution for the athlete”. - Drew Brees, former NFL QB
LIGHT Helmets estimates a market opportunity exceeding $800M annually and seeks to capitalize on an immediate need for $125M of new football helmets, which has been caused by supply chain disruption and other challenges for competing hard shell helmet manufacturers. LIGHT Helmets will be moving all manufacturing of its products to the United States and expects that all products will be manufactured domestically by the end of 2023.
Finally, LIGHT Helmets is in contact with the National Football League Players Association to seek ways to provide equipment that will reduce the concussion risk for NFL players.
