The AllStar Sports Adult Umpire Throat STD Guard is a protective throat guard designed to shield the vulnerable neck and throat area from foul tips, wild pitches, and errant throws during baseball and softball officiating. This single guard is worn by attaching it to the bottom of a traditional umpire mask using the included rubber button straps, with the contoured molded plastic piece extending downward to cover the throat and upper chest gap left by standard face masks. The tough plastic construction absorbs and deflects impact forces while maintaining a lightweight profile that does not impede head movement or the umpire's ability to track plays behind the plate. Rubber button straps ensure a secure, adjustable fit on virtually any additional umpire mask, allowing quick attachment and removal between innings or games. Ideal for adult baseball and softball umpires at the amateur, collegiate, and professional levels who require reliable throat protection to complement their existing mask equipment and maintain safety standards during plate assignments.
