Lacrosse Helmets
Lacrosse helmets protect your most valuable asset, your head. Not your lacrosse head either. A well-fitting and newer lacrosse helmet is a must-have piece of lacrosse equipment. You can’t wear a lacrosse helmet that is the wrong size because it won’t suitably guard your brain against the impact of hits. Older lacrosse helmets also may be outdated or flawed, so sticking to a newer lacrosse helmet is the safe bet. Stringers Society can help you find the best models available, but trying lacrosse helmets on before purchasing is always recommended.
Men’s Helmets
Your brain is your most valuable asset on the lacrosse field; make sure your lacrosse helmet protects it. A high-quality men’s lacrosse helmet can be the difference between safe and sorry.
Women’s Helmets
Women’s Lacrosse and Girl’s Lacrosse Helmets vary depending on size, not a model. Look at our Cascade and Hummingbird Sizing Charts to find the right size helmet based on your head size
Youth Helmets
In lacrosse, helmets are made for specific age groups to provide the best protection. For the youth level, or up until about 4th or 5th grade, a few helmets are best suited for that age group.

The women’s Cascade LX Lacrosse Helmet is Stringers Society’s recommended helmet for new lacrosse players. This is because compared to the Hummingbird V2, which comes in three sizes, the Cascade LX is made to fit the lifetime of the player's career. The eye protection area is the main difference between the Cascade LX and the Hummingbird V2 Lacrosse Helmet. While you won't be able to adjust the eye protection on the Cascade LX, you can change it on the Hummingbird V2.
