ARMAGILLO’S PERFORMANCE

Gillo Dreads
stand out above the competition, keeping the wearer
moving even in the heat of summer. The Gillo head wrap
is designed to be extremely breathable with their advance
(honeycomb-like) mesh. Although Armagillo is known for
their dreads, they also sell a variety of playing gear and
casual wear.
When you first pull this head wrap out of the box you
notice it comes with some pretty awesome Armagillo
stickers. They are high quality headbands that are great
for wicking sweat, helping you get that much needed
bounce, protect your head, and much more! But let’s talk
about the look for a second.
When you look at the Gillo Head Band, you notice the high
quality material it is made of. The head band itself comes
in a couple different colors like different camouflage styles,
red, pink, gold, blue plaid, and black. They also come in
a couple different styles like faux gator and faux ostrich
leather. These headbands are made unique, and are great
for keeping sweat from traveling into your eyes. Every
head band is made with comfort and reliability in mind.
Each head band is Polyurethane coated 500D Cordura
Nylon for maximum resistance against the elements and
physical impacts.
What is the coolest part about these head bands?
Customizability. Every head band from Armagillo can be
sold just as a headband, or can be sold with the mesh
inserts. Now let’s talk about those inserts for a second.
What are they exactly? The Armagillo mesh inserts are
what makes the head band look like dreadlocks. They are
made with a Velcro strip that fit right into the head bands.
You can choose one insert, or more for extra padding,
protection, and style. They recommend 2 inserts for the
best coverage. Each strand offers 3.8mm of foam-like
protection with the best ventilation you can find. The
dreads come in a variety of different colors such as black,
buffalo brown, olive, earth, and white. This makes them
extremely customizable for any player.
Any player on the field knows the difference between
a break and a bounce is a huge one! There are many
different ways you can protect yourself from this, including
body armor and head gear. Armagillo is the best head
gear a player could ask for. They look great on the field,
