Targeting the youth through junior high player, the Schutt Youth Advantage® helmet includes the same design features as the AiR® Advantage® Varsity helmet: 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 Youth Advantage® a favorite of equipment managers, coaches and parents.
This helmet hits the sweet spot for the youth player – it’s a lightweight alternative that still offers protection and maximum performance. Component parts interchange easily, which assures an easy – and customized – fit for every player.
The Youth Advantage® also features soft jaw pads and Youth Flex™ face guards – components Schutt specifically designed for younger players. Add to that a third chinstrap snap location, along with rust-resistant stainless steel hardware and the Youth Advantage® is a surefire winner.

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. If your helmet does not say this the approve paints are as follows: Color-Set INC, WURDACK, INC, Sherwin Williams Corp, AKZO/Sikkens, DuPont Corp, & Createx Brand.
