Slowpitch Pitcher Protection

In slowpitch, the pitcher finishes their delivery just a few steps in front of the batter, facing hitters who swing for maximum power with high-performance slowpitch bats. A line drive back up the middle leaves almost no time to react. Slowpitch pitcher protection like a helmet with a face cage dramatically reduces the risk of serious head and face injuries.

A fielder’s mask protects the face only. A pitcher’s helmet, like the Easton Hellcat Slo-Pitch Helmet, covers the whole head with a face cage, offering 360° protection against balls hit from any angle. For slowpitch pitchers facing powerful hitters, a full helmet offers the most complete protection. Fielder’s masks are available in our defensive facemasks collection.

• Easton Hellcat: S/M fits 6 7/8" to 7 1/2", and L/XL fits 7 3/8" to 8".

• Worth Legit and Miken Pitcher’s Helmet Gold Edition: one size fits most from 6 1/2" to 7 5/8", with a dial adjustable fit system.

Line drives and hard ground balls often hit pitchers in the shins and knees. The Easton Hellcat Slo-Pitch Leg Guards are made specifically for softball, with an articulating thigh guard that moves with the knee, adjustable shin pads, and left and right-leg specific molds for a secure fit while fielding.

Yes. The Easton Hellcat Helmet Visor snaps onto any size Hellcat helmet without tools. Its polarized, iridium-finish lens cuts glare and boosts contrast in bright sun, so you can track the ball better on sunny days.
