Description
Big Foot Strike Steel Mesh Mask with Ear Protection (Urban Grey)
The Big Foot Strike Steel Mesh Mask with Ear Protection is a lower-face mask in urban grey with integrated ear covers. It protects your mouth, teeth, cheeks and ears from BB hits, all areas that goggles alone leave exposed and that are painful to be hit on, especially at close range.
Lower-face protection is one of the best investments a new player can make, and steel mesh masks are popular because they are light, cool and inexpensive. This Big Foot version adds mesh ear covers, so the ears are protected as well as the mouth and cheeks.
Design
As the name says, the mask uses steel mesh, which stops BBs while letting air move freely. You can breathe and talk to your team easily, and because warm breath escapes through the mesh, goggles are less likely to fog than with a solid mask.
Mesh ear covers on each side protect the ears, which are easy to overlook until you take a hit there. Check the product images for the strap layout and to see how the mask will sit with your goggles and headwear.
Wearing it
Put the mask on before your goggles so the two sit together without a gap, then check you can turn your head and bring a rifle up to your cheek comfortably. The ear covers slightly muffle sound, but you can still hear calls and conversation; if you use a radio headset, try it with the mask before game day.
Colour
Urban grey suits players who play a lot of CQB, urban and building-based sites, and it pairs well with grey and black kit or urban camouflage patterns.

Compatibility
Designed to be worn with full-seal, impact-rated goggles or glasses, which most sites require. It works with most caps and many helmets, but masks with ear covers can sit differently under headsets and helmet straps, so try your full setup together before you play.
Care and maintenance
Rinse or wipe the mask after use to remove sweat and mud, then let it dry fully before storing so the steel mesh and any metal fittings do not rust. A soft brush clears dirt from the mesh without damaging it.
Look over the mesh and straps before each game day. Replace the mask if the mesh is dented, split or pushed out of shape, and avoid crushing it at the bottom of a kit bag.
Who is it for?
