The Vision
The innovation journey began when Ozhan Akcakaya, frustrated by traditional face-saver headgear that limited his agility, decided to create something entirely new. He recognized the urgent need for a lighter design with improved visibility, stating, “We need something that doesn’t just protect but enhances movement.”
Determined to push boundaries, Akcakaya focused on engineering headgear that maintained maximum protection while reducing weight below 14 ounces — significantly improving athlete performance.
For boxers who prioritize protection without sacrificing their vision, the HIT N MOVE Face Saver Headgear represents a breakthrough in protective sports gear developed through Akcakaya’s relentless pursuit of innovation and perfection.
The Testing
Prototypes were tested by a network of athletes, yielding overwhelmingly positive feedback. Users reported exceptional visibility and comfort, with one fighter stating, "It’s like I’m not wearing anything at all!" Continuous feedback facilitated further refinements, ensuring a balanced integration of protection, visibility, and agility.
The Launch
The culmination of months of development was celebrated at a launch event that captured the attention of the sports community. Ozhan and Dr. Biyikli showcased the HIT N MOVE Face Saver's lightweight design, innovative Air Armor micro padding, and enhanced vision capabilities. Ozhan emphasized its unique benefits, declaring, "We’ve created a headgear that doesn’t just protect; it empowers."
A New Era
The HIT N MOVE Vision Face Saver establishes itself as the gold standard and choice for athletes who prioritize protection without sacrificing vision. Its successful blend of lightweight construction, superior visibility, and innovative micro padding technology marked a significant shift in sports safety gear.
The Design
Through extensive research and testing, it became evident that existing designs restricted peripheral and vertical vision, hindering athletic performance. This led to the development of the Air Armor model, which introduced the groundbreaking micro padding technology that inhibits impact from traveling throughout the structure. This lightweight cushioning solution maintains robust protection without added bulk. The design also incorporated FlexFit technology, allowing for adjustable components and a customizable fit, enabling athletes to mold the headgear to their preferences.
