My Favorite Helmet

its basically like wearing a pillow on your head, this helmet is so comfortable it has foam pads that adjust to your head, i haven't had this helmet to long , but its still basically new after a couple of months and should last for a good long while, it has a very good fit which is easy to adjust buy just sliding the fit clips up , then down to lock it in position, it offers good protection buy using dual density foam without sacrificing looks , i think these helmet looks awesome and was one of the reasons why i bought it, the looks don't make it very heavy , even with a visor this helmet is still super light.

reebok 6k helmet review

This helmet is my favourite helmet, it is comfortable, it is affordable and it offers great protection. This helmet compared to the 11k is in my opinnion only the price.

(comercalling)
It has a great comfortability it has adhesive foam (not sure) in it wick will accually mold to your head shape. The fit is also great because it has two shells locked to eachother with a cap. When you press the cap upward you can make the helmet bigger or smaller, wich creates a customized fit. The look is also very customizable (not gonna go too much into details) because they come in many colours and you CAN make the inserts a other colour.

Great helmet!

This is a very good helmet for the price.

I have been using the 6K for about two years now and would recommend it to anyone looking for a relatively affordable helmet that still offers a high level of protection. The helmet has come into contact with fast moving pucks, sticks, shoulders, the glass and even the goal post after I was tripped on a breakaway. The 6K (and more importantly my head, thanks to the helmet) has held up through all of this virtually unscathed. The only thing that stopped me rating the durability of this helmet 5 stars is that the lining on the foam is starting to separate in places.

The fit, ventilation and looks of this helmet are all excellent. The fit clip system works well as tool-less adjustment, but lacks the fine adjustment of say the 8K helmet.

It isn't the lightest helmet on the market, but I for one am willing to take the extra weight when it protects my head as well as it has.

nice affordable helmet

This is without a doubt the comfiest helmet i have ever worn(in my opinion more comfortable than the 8k aswell as the bauers i have tried). it fits really well and is easy to adjust due to side clasps. As for the protection i think that is good aswell. I am a light rushing defenseman who gets knocked around a fair bit, but nothing has gone wrong with my head in this helmet. The durability is good but not great. My helmet is starting not to fit properly and to be uncomfortable, though it is quite close to the expiration date. This is an attractive helmet and if you find some of the high end helmets too pricey, I RECOMMEND THIS HELMET.

Reebok helmet

This helmet is old it's about 2years old already and it's still kicking, this helmet is very comfortable, very light, and will protect your head no matter what, one time i was stitting on top of the boards during a scrimmage and some guy pushed me of the boards and I fell down and had my head crash into the benches, and I was fine. The only problem I find in these helmets is that they tend to be on the wider side so if you have a narrow head you might have your head rocking back and forth sometimes, but i still highly reccomnd this helmet.

Good Quality Helmet

I purchased this helmet right before my first high school season. It is a very good helmet. I would highly recommend this helmet for anyone. I like everything about it except i will occasionally get a headache if i wear the helmet too long. If you would like to buy this helmet I would recommend going to hockeymonkey.com and getting it because I know it is very cheap there. Good Luck

Reebok 6K helmet

This is the best helmet I have owned to date. I bought this helmet because my old CCM was starting to dig into my head and I wanted something that wasn't going to hurt. I love the look of this helmet I bought it in white. This helmet is very comfortable and light. Protection is good so far, I haven't taken a puck in the head or fell and hit my head. But I have hit it a few times well I wearing and it seems it has good protection. Its nice and light as well as far as a helmet goes at least. This is ten steps above what my old CCM was. Would recommend to anyone looking to buy a new helmet. It is more expensive then say like CCM's and such but just remember you get what you pay for.

Great Helmet

This helmet is absolutley great. It is the most comfortable helmet that I have ever had on my head, and it is protective as well. If this helmet fits well, go with this over the 8k because it is exactly the same but it gives up weight. I don't really care if my helmet is lightweight to be honest. But overall, this is my favorite helmet on the market.

RBK 6K ice hockey helmet

This helmet is by far the best helmet I've ever had, because it has great protection which is extremely important in body checking leagues. They say you should spend the most money on your helmet, because your head is very important and fragile and that's why this helmet is worth every penny of $115. I have tried on the 9K and 8K and realized that they were quiet a bit lighter, but unless you want to spend close to $50 more, I highly recommend the RBK 6K helmet.
