Hi all as the fielders mask option is becoming more popular with players I have noticed the hats are being left in the equipment bags.
Obviously not a great option on the hot sunny days. I do remember Rip-it had an attachable sun shield but, I haven't seen anything else.
Is there a cap that fits over the mask?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Have them wear their hat backwards and then the mask over the hat. The bill of the hat will keep the sun of their neck which can be a real positive with these upcoming summer days.

Back on the dirt...
Ive seen some football helmet shields fitted to SB masks but Ive also seen ups make them take them off if they are reflective citing it as a distraction to the batter. (Load of crap IMO but...)

One of the dads on DD's team would bend the bill of a visor so that it could stick out of the top hole of the (Rip-It) mask. Not attractive but helps with the sun.

DD used to use the sun shade but it doesn't offer much protection so now she just wears her sunglasses.
