Play with more confidence than ever before with the Gilbert Vapor 5-25 Head Guard in Royal, a pro-level headguard that provides 25% more protection than previous Gilbert models.

The five-layered EVA foam construction features larger panels in key areas to absorb and dissipate energy in high-impact contacts and keep you safer in the chaos of rucks or when you're trying to power past tackles on the ball. Air Flow Channels provide top-class ventilation to prevent overheating, and performance fabric wicks moisture away from the skin to ensure that you stay comfortable and distraction-free throughout the 80 minutes, while antimicrobial materials keep it fresher for longer.

The protection extends all the way down to the ears to minimise your chances of developing cauliflower ear in scrums, and convex moulding around the ears is designed to improve audibility so you can better communicate with teammates in the heat of competition. An expandable lace closure and adaptive foam configuration provide a secure fit for most head shapes.
