Eye Black
Cut the glare with eye black - sticks, stackers and liquid in team colours, part of our player accessories range.
How to choose: sticks are easy for younger players; liquid lasts longest through a hot day.
Eye black is designed to reduce glare from the sun and stadium lights. Applied on the upper cheekbone, the dark matte surface absorbs light that would otherwise reflect off the skin toward the eyes, helping players track fly balls and pitches more comfortably. Many players also wear it as part of their game-day look. Shop all eye black, and pair it with sunglasses on sunny days.
Both work. Eye black sticks, like the Rawlings Eye Black Stick, Isplack Eye Black Stick or EvoShield Eye Black, are applied like a crayon and let you choose the size and shape of the stripe. Stickers, like the Rawlings Eye Black Stickers 12-pack, are soft, flexible, non-reflective and simply peel and stick, with no mess, which makes them popular with young players.
Start with a clean, dry face. Draw a stripe on the upper cheekbone, just below each eye, keeping a small gap so the product stays away from your eyes. The Zippy's Eye Black Applicator makes it easy with a single stroke, and the Rawlings Wide-Body Eye Black and Eye Black Stick - Wide give a broader stripe. Apply before warm-ups so it sets before you start sweating. Shop all eye black.
Most eye black, like the Rawlings Eye Black Stick and EvoShield Eye Black, comes off easily with soap and water. Stickers simply peel off. When you can't wash up right away, body wipes like isplack Clean Sweep are handy in your bag, and Captodor shower gel helps you freshen up after a long tournament day.
Yes. The Franklin MLB Premium Colored Eye Black comes in Pure Black, Steel Blue, Ember Red and a USA Tri-Color stick, with a sweat-resistant formula. The Isplack Eye Black Stick is available in 16 vibrant colours, and its formula is sweatproof and designed not to smear on your jersey or melt in your bag. Match your team colours with our eye black.
Eye black from sport brands is made for use on the skin: the Rawlings Eye Black Stick has a non-messy formula that's safe to use and washes off with soap and water, and the Isplack stick is paraben-free and petroleum-free. For young players or sensitive skin, the non-irritating Rawlings Eye Black Stickers are a simple option. Keep the product away from the eyes, and stop using it if irritation appears. Shop all eye black.
