Until setting eyes on the Michael Princip Bulwark helmet, I didn’t realize that football helmets needed a redesign. A self-initiated project, Princip's helmet is definitely worth taking a look at.
Inspired by the vintage MacGregor E & H model helmet and modern rugby helmets, the Michael Princip Bulwark helmet utilizes the best in anti-concussion helmet technology. Of course, as an independent entrepreneur, he won’t be able to compete with established companies. Instead, Princip hopes to sell or lease the Bulwark concept.
