NYRangers Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 I haven't seen anything on this yet but at least the Cubs Emblem is the same as the regular helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philly97flyer Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Are you talking about the all star game logo on the back? Because other than that, I dont see any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC97 Posted July 13, 2005 Author Share Posted July 13, 2005 Are you talking about the all star game logo on the back? Because other than that, I dont see any difference. Nah, it's like a weird shape, like those XFL Football helmets --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sj32 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 It looks like the standard Rawlings/ABC shape, but with vents along the sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRangers Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Exactly.Who makes them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkerws Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 I think Louisville Slugger actually makes them. I saw this and a few other designs watching the College World Series and I think I remember seeing TPX on the back, although that could have been a sticker as well.

BBTV Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Like this? Not exactly. The ear holes are more round, and the top doesn't have those Clingon looking things. The vents on the side look the same, though. "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

Gothamite Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 What exactly is the point in having vents on a helmet used when the wearer is standing still!? The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 What exactly is the point in having vents on a helmet used when the wearer is standing still!? I guess the vents are for cooling, but all the aerodynamic shapes involved are completely pointless. I'm all for safety first, but this stuff is for aesthetics only.

OMMF Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Like this? While I'm guessing they spent more than $18 on them, you can find these on the MLB shop at MLB.com. They are made by Rawlings.http://shop.mlb.com/product/index.jsp?prod...rentPage=family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

otherwilds Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Maybe the vents also make the helmet lighter, just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
