MMA Head & Ear Guards

Well designed MMA head gear reduces both superficial and internal damage to the head and ears whilst still maintaining good vision so you can still see and defend effectively which helps you to avoid being hit and injured.

Head guards with ear protection that allow best vision have a more open face and are mainly designed to protect the forehead, the back of the head and ears from dangerous head clashes and strikes to the forehead and to the side and back of the head. So whilst you are wearing an open face head guard then you want to make sure your opponent is wearing good quality well padded MMA or boxing gloves.

Full face head guards compromises a little less vision for more protection against impact of the face and chin.

Many MMA fighters prefer the open face head guards and like to use well padded MMA gloves for added protection when sparring in the gym.

The most important thing to remember to help maintain better vision, whether you are wearing a head guard or not, you always should try to keep your chin down with your nose and both eyes pointed at the opponent. To do this you must avoid dropping your head too low or turning your head sideways. Also covering you face with your hands so you cannot see properly is not a good idea as the opponent can still see you.

It is important to remember wearing a MMA head and ear guard does stop your teeth from clashing together so you still need to wear a good quality mouth guard to bite down on so you do not get hit with a loose jaw.
