Riddell Power Petition
 
After hearing alot of discussions on the Riddell Power of the past. I have started a petition to see if people would like to see one made for the present.

I wish they would make stuff, too
 
But as I understand it, Easton bought out Riddell a couple of years ago. I wish they still were in business and made their really cool single bar mask, too.

:(

Strikes and outs!

Huh?????

They still make both baseball and football equipment, as well as equipment for other sports. Riddell Power shoulder pads, for instance, or the new Riddell Revolution helmet. Check them out here:

I know they don't make the mask. I had one of those too. But I do not see anywhere on the site that even mentions Easton. It says that they merged in 2004 with the Bell Helment Company. Please point me to the Easton buyout.

http://baseball.eastonsports.com/new...ails.php?p=154 It is not a buyout but a merge.

I work for Bell Helmets. Riddell is a part of Bell. We make the Football and Baseball helmets at the plant where I work. We stock the Power Pads, both football and baseball in our warehouse. We make the HSM but no longer make the standard mask. Although if you have a Riddell mask we still recondition them.

As mentioned Easton and Bell have merged, so Riddell is now a part of that conglomerate.

Okay, you say that you stock Power chest protectors, but there is no umpire equipment listed at the Easton site. Riddell's web page only show catcher's gear too. We want the Power (I don't care who's brand name is on it) Umpire Chest Protector.

maybe one of those catchers chest protectors is part of the "power" lineup
