Helmets are one of those pieces of kit can add a lot of utility to your loadout. While most people think of them to keep your head safe, they can do so much more. Helmets can serve as a way to mount night vision, communications equipment and more. Due to their size and shape, they can make you stick out, which is why you should have a cover on your helmet to break up your silhouette.
To help blend in, I tested the Predator Ghillie Helmet Cover from Beez Combat Systems. What I like about this is that it helps break up the shape of the helmet unlike a traditional cover. Putting vegetation or other materials on your helmet to help camouflage yourself isn’t a new idea, but this takes the concept and applies modern materials.
First and foremost, the quality of the Predator Ghillie Helmet Cover is outstanding. The materials used are top-notch, and the craftsmanship is evident in every detail. Beez Combat Systems uses a lot of laser cutting in their products, and even small cuts that are close together are clean and sturdy. The cover fits perfectly over my helmet, with some room to spare if you have helmet mounted accessories like strobes, counterweights, or night vision mounts.
The cover is held on by a piece of elastic running throughout the edge of the fabric, which can be tightened to make sure the cover stays tight and works with a variety of helmets. I looped mine through the hardware of my helmet to make sure it’s not coming off. The Predator Ghillie comes in options for low and high cut helmets to insure it fits well.
One of the standout features of this product is its camouflage effectiveness. The natural-looking synthetic foliage blends in well, and the laser cut material helps to break up the helmet’s shape. The Predator Ghillie Helmet Cover comes in more than a dozen camouflage patterns to match the rest of your gear. I like this a lot because it helps at games that are green vs. tan uniforms, and this is another way to clearly mark what team I’m on.
The helmet cover comes with several “dreads” of laser cut material that can be woven into the cover. spreading these throughout the helmet helps to break up its shape, and there is still mounting points left over for natural vegetation if you’d like to add that as well. The Predator Helmet Cover also helps reduce your signature on thermal devices, which is helpful as this technology becomes more common at larger airsoft games.
In terms of durability, the Predator Ghillie Helmet Cover has held up exceptionally well. It has shown no signs of wear and tear. The materials are robust and can withstand the rigors of airsoft. I’ve run through brush several times with this cover and never run into any snagging or damage to the cover.
In conclusion, the Predator Ghillie Helmet Cover from Beez Combat Systems is a wonderful addition to any helmet set up. Its exceptional quality, effectiveness, and versatility make it a valuable addition to your helmet set up.
