Abstract
A protective headgear comprising a helmet and a face mask of flexible material secured to the helmet. When a force capable of causing injury to the headgear wearer is applied to the face mask, the mask deflects to a significant degree, without fracturing, with respect to the helmet. The deflection may take place entirely within the material of the face mask, or the deflection may in part take place within the attachments resiliently securing the face mask to the helmet. The face mask is preferably fabricated of an elastomeric material.
