Info
Head the ball like the pros.
Heading is central to soccer — but standard protective headbands add padding that alters the ball's trajectory, forcing players to choose between protection and precision. That's why many serious players go without.
The 2nd Skull® Pro Band ends that trade-off with a patented Precision Heading Panel. Field-tested with professional players in Europe, it's built for serious soccer players — trusted where heading the ball is part of the game.
For players at the level where heading is part of the game. The Precision Heading Panel acts as a built-in target for the ideal contact point, making it a helpful training aid for proper technique.
The 2nd Skull® Pro Band is a patented protective headband with 360° Impact Absorbing Technology in a soft, lightweight feel. At the front, the ultra-light, carbon-inspired Precision Heading Panel is engineered for the header — so the ball meets a true touch, not a bulky pad.
Ultra-lightweight, under 1.5 oz. The 4mm design uses a spandex blend for a comfortable, compressive fit that keeps the band in place. Professional soccer players have trusted the 2nd Skull® Pro Band in live games.
For soccer, basketball, volleyball, and more.

FAQ
Got quick questions? Here is everything you need to know about 2nd Skull protection, fit, and care.
How does 2nd Skull® Technology work?
2nd Skull® uses an independent floating protective layer nested between two fabric layers. Because this protective layer floats independently rather than being fixed in place, it allows slippage on impact—which is what lets it guard against both rotational impacts (angled or twisting forces) and linear impacts (direct, straight-on hits).
The protective layer itself is made of XRD® Extreme Impact Protection material. The advanced material is soft and flexible during normal use, but upon impact, it instantly hardens to absorb and dissipate the energy from the impact. It then returns to a soft state.
Can I use it for multiple sports?
Absolutely. While it is designed for soccer, you can wear it for other non-helmet sports like basketball, volleyball and more.
How do I wash and maintain it?
We recommend hand washing it with cold water and a mild detergent, then letting it air dry. Do not put it in the dryer, as high heat can damage the protective XRD® material.
