Better than competitors!

My son got 2 of the shirts from Titan and he likes them better than the previous ones he had from a different brand. Says they fit better and are more comfortable around his neck, while still keeping him protected!

Great feel & fit

Got this for my rising 9th grade son and he loves it! It's literally the only protective neck LS shirt he will wear! Definitely going to get another!

Well made-good fit

Seems well made. Very lightweight but solid. Cuffs hold position well. Was a bit concerned about the feel of the neck closure but I didn’t notice any discomfort during play. Elbow ‘gel pattern’ keeps pads in place.
Sr-Large fits well for my 5’-11”, 165 lb frame.

Disclaimer: Products offering 'cut resistance' and 'cut protection' are not foolproof in preventing or eliminating cut injuries, especially against powered blades or sharp equipment. The information provided by Titan Battlegear is based on current knowledge and is intended as guidance for your decisions or product selections. Titan Battlegear's cut protection products are highly resistant to cuts, but they are not completely cut-proof.

Despite their high resistance to cuts, there is always a possibility that objects could penetrate these products under certain circumstances.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Makes Titan Battlegear The Safest?

Titan Battlegear's Senior hockey neck guard shirt short sleeve utilizes advanced American-made cut-resistant materials and a unique collar design to maximize coverage of critical zones.

Other Brands Use Kevlar®, Why Is This Better?

Most Kevlar® fabrics offer an ISO 13997:1999 blade cut resistance level 2, and in very rare occasions level 3 (on a scale of 1 to 5).

Titan's Senior hockey neck guard shirt short sleeve utilizes proprietary, American made fabrics, delivering the highest cut-resistance: level A9, which makes it 200 stronger than steel, and almost 5 times more cut resistant than Kevlar® products rated level 3 at 5N.

Are there certifications for the USA Hockey mandated laceration protection?

Unfortunately USA hockey does not have any certification requirements currently.

They state “Players are required to wear a neck laceration protector that is commercially designed and manufactured for that purpose.”

We are eager for them to enforce stricter guidelines around the level of protection to qualify as “neck laceration protectors” for the Aug 1, 2024 mandate.

In our testing of other products available in the market, we revealed a very low level of cut resistance due to materials such as Kevlar®, which only provide a level 2 or 3 cut-resistance, depending on fabric weight.

Titan shirts achieve up to a level A9 cut-resistance, the highest level of cut protection in the world.

How Safe Is The Shirt After Many Washes?

We tested cleaning with cycles across TEN Durawash twin-tub industrial machines. This is equivalent to 50 washes in a domestic washing machine.

The cut resistance level, following this washing process increased by 4%. Test reports from INTERTEK are available upon request.

Where Are Titan's Products Produced?

Titan was born in South Florida, and Built in the Americas. Our factories are in Winter Park, Florida, and Colombia. We source material from premium partners in the USA.

The mass market and other independent brands produce in China, with questionable labor practices and superficial cut resistance certifications.

Can I Customize Titan's Hockey Neck Guard Shirt With My Team Logo/Colors?

Yes, Titan's TeamWorks program offers custom gear for teams, as well as personalization by player, including name, number, and even their country flag to represent their nationality!
