I purchased the Amara suede wraparound pads for my mask, and the very first day I wore them, I got beaned with a direct hit fastball to the lower left side of the mask. Catcher didn't even touch it. The pads absorbed the impact. Without those type of pads, I might have been injured. I believe these wraparound pads are the way to go for those who do not use the hockey style helmet masks.
