The EPIC™ System consists of a single, one-piece impact liner for fixed protection and 22 additional soft comfort pads for adjustability and customization to accommodate all head sizes and shapes. The pad shape and configuration of the impact liner provides 38-percent more coverage compared to the current seven-pad layout for improved impact performance.
The comfort pads are provided in four shapes and two thicknesses - 3/16-inch "thin" and 3/8-inch "thick." Also included in the system are four Ultra GripTM pads (1/4-inch thick) and two Sweat Bands (3/16-inch and 3/8-inch thick). Any number of comfort pads in any configuration can be used to optimize fit and comfort without sacrificing protection.
