Dedicated leaders on the football field demand every edge possible from their equipment. The Schutt Air® Advantage® gives them that edge. This helmet is the #1 choice for players who want a lighter helmet, which makes them faster and more agile than the guy lining up against them.
The Air® Advantage® is 12% lighter than the Pro-Air® II, but still maintains the same rugged durability. This helmet features a unique air liner system, which distributes the force of an impact then immediately returns to its original shape. That same liner system makes it easy to get a custom fit for each player, making the Air® Advantage® a favorite of equipment managers at all levels.
Component parts of this helmet are interchangeable which also aids in getting the best fit possible for each individual wearing the Air® Advantage®. Large ventilation holes on the crown allow air to circulate in the helmet, keeping you cool and dry. The Air® Advantage® also features a third chinstrap snap location – perfect for players who don’t fit or don’t like the standard setup.

Q. How do I properly fit my Schutt football helmet/equipment?
A. Fitting football equipment correctly is extremely important, we recommend talking or visiting with our authorized Schutt® dealers to ensure you are properly fitted. You can easily download any one of our catalogs and review the product sections by going to catalog.The catalogs will provide you with size chart guidelines and general fitting instructions.
Q. I want to write my name on my helmet so I know it’s mine. Is that ok?
A. The solvents contained within the permanent marker are mostly alcohol based, and flash off immediately. Writing a person's name with a "Sharpie" brand permanent marker will not void the warranty on our batter's shells.
Q. I want to paint my football helmet myself is that ok?
A. We strongly recommend that Schutt® Sports Mfg. Co. or one of it’s approved NAERA member reconditioners apply the new paint, because of the very specific procedures that are required. Please contact Schutt® Sports Customer Service Department for information on approved reconditioner: 1-800-426-9784. If your football helmet has labeling that says ”DO NOT PAINT” please do not attempt to paint it.
