But have nowhere I know of in the Toronto area to go and physically try one on. I love the look of the easton and the allstar, which is good, but right now sadly I know, i like the price of the Pro-nine and Diamond, (Huge sale price on Ebay right now) since I haven't tried one, and can't really go and try them on, the lower price is a good idea for my pocket book if on the off chance I don't like it. I loved the info re the periferial vision as that is my # 1 reason for looking at these items. I love the idea of not having to remove the mask in play as that is my worst habit as an umpire. And I have never really gotten the ability to remove the mask and leave the hat on, and that drives me nuts. Obviously I'm also concerned with saftey, but I doubt there is all that much of a difference between them, obviously with the kevlar one, but the lower end models I doubt it, do you have any other information about this side of things??
