Not as easy to find as they used to be, the Bauer 4500 helmet is one of the most popular and iconic pieces of equipment in hockey history. Still popular with the pros, the design is timeless, and gearheads are snapping these up and hoarding them, or selling them for absolutely ludicrous prices online.
This helmet is 9.5/10 condition. All interior foams are fully attached, not crusty or hard, minor markings from about 4-5 uses. The shell is 10/10 - no cracks anywhere, minor wear on finish from being in my bag, all certification stickers are still attached, and this helmet is still HECC certified until December 31, 2026 if your league requires a certified helmet. Can also include the original earguards if you want them.
Compatible with all current visor and cage styles on the market, and I’m not charging $150 like some jokers on this site. Last one sold in 80 minutes, let’s see how long this one lasts!
