Why players pick it
Shrey's Koroyd Steel is what serious players reach for. The Koroyd core — thousands of thin-walled welded tubes that are 95% air — crumples instantly and consistently on impact, absorbing maximum force and minimising the energy that reaches your head. It's optimised specifically for high-speed cricket-ball impacts.
Those same Koroyd tubes plus large air-intake vents drive the cooling that players rate highly — hot air escapes through the open cells, which matters through a long innings in the sun. The dual retention system lets you choose between a 3D one-hand micro-adjuster and traditional cushion pads.
It's certified to BS 7928:2013+A1:2019 and (EU) 2016/425, and tested with both 4¾ and 5½ oz balls. Worth noting: with the steel visor it's around 930g, so players coming off a titanium-grille helmet may feel a little extra weight at first.

What buyers say
Players report excellent protection and comfort; the Koroyd venting is praised for cooling, though some note the steel-visor version carries a little extra weight versus titanium.

Common questions
Is it legal for SA school cricket?
Yes — it's certified to BS 7928:2013+A1:2019, the standard SA schools and clubs require. Always check your league's specific rules too.
What is Koroyd?
A core of thin-walled welded tubes (95% air) that crumple on impact to absorb force in a controlled way — it also aids ventilation.
Is it heavy?
With the steel visor it's about 930g; players switching from a titanium grille may notice a little extra weight, but it's well-balanced for the protection it gives.
How do I size it?
Measure around your head just above the ears and match to S/M/L/XL; the rear adjuster fine-tunes the fit. We'll fit you in-store.
Steel or titanium grille — which?
Steel is more affordable and very strong; titanium is lighter for the same protection at a higher price. For most club and school players, steel is the sensible choice.
