EvoShield makes protective gear for athletes as part of the Wilson family of sporting goods brands. It produces and sells gloves, elbow guards and head and rib protectors for sports such as lacrosse, football and baseball. It was established in 2006 by a group of former collegiate and professional athletes, doctors and chemists. The group recognized the need for an evolution in protective equipment. Protective gear was, generally loose-fitting, and ironically, not protective. Many athletes didn't wear it until they were either hurt or forced to don the clunky equipment. The company went to work researching, designing and testing its flagship product, gear that provided form-fitting, impact-dispersing protection to the athlete. It created a gel that begins soft and pliable but becomes hard and protective with exposure to the air. This unique technology allows the protective gear to mold to the athlete's body contours, providing an individualized protective experience. Top athletes such as Cody Ross of San Francisco Giants and Josh Hamilton of the Texas Rangers endorse these lightweight, protective shells. The company believes that an athlete's confidence is 50% of the game. Without the fear of injury, they can play with power and freedom other players don't experience.
