• Body of the helmet isn’t integrated well with the form of the archaic wire facemasks

• External snap-on chin straps are clumsy and visually distracting (and often fail during game play)

• Team branding options are limited to basic paint finishes, topical graphic decals, and limited accent options

• Although not neglected, concussion safety is and will continue to be a challenge for decades to come
