Cheap Catchers Gear Sets:
Cheap Catchers Gear Sets are everywhere, especially from three of the top companies like Wilson, Louisville Slugger, Rawlings. Wilson, for instance, offers many youth sets below the $100 range. What a steal! And this includes the three major components, of course. A helmet, chest protector, and leg guards.
Wilson:
The Wilson EZ Gear Youth Catcher's Set in particular is built with the trademarked QuickChange technology that lends an easy on and off in ten seconds or less. Its helmet features a premium grade ABS shell for 360 degrees. Consequently, this means it can protect itself and the backstop who wears it from incoming ball and bat contact. Additionally, there is built in venting to maintain protection while also keeping the head cool at all times.
The gear as a whole incorporates a one time adjustable system -- set it and forget it. Its form fitting design is based on Wilson's breakthrough pro grade ProMotion™ Catcher's Gear. Therefore, it is bound to get the job done and more.
