VICIS ZERO2 Trench Elite Football Helmet
Description
The VICIS ZERO2 Trench Elite is football's first-ever position-specific helmet, purpose-built for offensive and defensive linemen who take repetitive, low-velocity helmet-to-helmet contact on every single play. Ranked as the top OL/DL helmet by both the NFL/NFLPA and Virginia Tech safety testing, this helmet sets the standard for linemen's protection at every level of the game. The Trench Elite package comes fully loaded with a titanium facemask, an Oakley Edge clear visor, and ANKR Locks for a chinstrap that stays exactly where it should. Built on the proven ZERO2 platform, it features a deformable outer shell that absorbs impact forces at the point of contact - before they ever reach the athlete's head. Whether you're anchoring the line of scrimmage or rushing the passer, the ZERO2 Trench Elite gives you elite-level protection and confidence that no other helmet can match.
Key Features
- Position-Specific Design: Football's first helmet engineered specifically for OL/DL, with additional offset in the front and upper sides to mitigate repetitive low-velocity impacts (2-4 m/s) that linemen face every play.
- NFL/NFLPA Top-Ranked: Earned the top rating on both the NFL and NFLPA's OL-Specific and DL-Specific helmet lists for five of the past six years.
- Virginia Tech 5-Star Rating: Scored 0.52 - nearly 2x better than the average 5-Star helmet. The Riddell SpeedFlex earned only a 3-star rating by comparison.
- Titanium Facemask (SC-223): 60% lighter than carbon steel, delivering maximum durability with significantly less weight on the field.
- Oakley Edge Clear Visor: Included with this Elite package, providing top-tier optical clarity and impact resistance for every-play visibility.
- ANKR Locks: Ensures the chinstrap stays firmly secured throughout play, preventing unwanted movement or dislodgement during contact.
- Deformable Outer Shell (RFLX 2.0): Flexible shell technology deforms like a car bumper to absorb impact forces at the point of contact before reaching the head - exclusive to VICIS helmets.
- DLTA Pod Fit System: Interchangeable pods snap into and out of six locations with five thickness options, delivering virtually unlimited personalized fit and comfort without air bladders.
- Lifetime Shell Warranty: All VICIS ZERO2 shells carry a lifetime warranty based on the helmet's current 10-year lifespan as mandated by NAERA and the helmet's Initial Season of Play.
- Ships Within 1-3 Business Days: In-stock sizes ship fast; built-to-order configurations ship in 2-3 weeks.

Why You'll Love It
The ZERO2 Trench Elite is trusted by linemen from high school programs to the professional ranks, and the numbers back it up - no other OL/DL helmet has held the top NFL/NFLPA ranking as consistently. The DLTA pod system means equipment managers can dial in a personalized fit for every player without the headache of air bladder maintenance, making inventory management genuinely easier. The titanium facemask and Oakley visor aren't add-ons you have to chase down separately - they come ready to go, so your athlete steps onto the field with a complete, premium setup from day one. VICIS engineered the Trench to handle the grind of the trenches specifically, not as a general-purpose helmet adapted for linemen. With a lifetime shell warranty backing every purchase, this is an investment in long-term protection you can count on season after season.

Manuals & Guides
FAQ
What makes the ZERO2 Trench different from a standard ZERO2 helmet?
The ZERO2 Trench is football's first position-specific helmet, designed exclusively for offensive and defensive linemen. It features additional offset in the front and upper sides specifically engineered to mitigate the repetitive, low-velocity impacts (2-4 m/s) that linemen experience on every play. A standard helmet is built to handle a broader range of impact types, while the Trench is optimized for the unique contact patterns of life in the trenches.
Does this helmet come with the Oakley visor and titanium facemask already installed?
Yes. The ZERO2 Trench Elite package includes the titanium SC-223 facemask, the Oakley Edge clear visor, and ANKR Locks all as part of the complete helmet. There is no need to purchase these components separately - your athlete gets a fully equipped, game-ready helmet right out of the box.
What is the DLTA pod fit system and how does it work?
The DLTA pod fit system is VICIS's proprietary alternative to traditional air bladder padding. Interchangeable foam pods snap in and out of six locations inside the helmet, with five thickness options available. This gives each athlete virtually unlimited fit customization without air pumps or maintenance. For equipment managers, it also simplifies inventory since pods are interchangeable across helmets.
What does the lifetime warranty cover?
All VICIS ZERO2 shells carry a lifetime warranty based on the helmet's current 10-year lifespan as mandated by NAERA and its Initial Season of Play. This means the shell itself is warranted for its expected usable life. For specific warranty claim details or questions about coverage, contact VICIS directly or reach out to our team at service@omahasportsandgames.com.
How do I choose the right size - Large or X-Large?
VICIS provides a detailed size chart and a fitting video to help you find the correct size. As a general guide, measure the circumference of the athlete's head just above the ears and eyebrows, then match that measurement to the VICIS size chart included in the product images. When in doubt between two sizes, it is recommended to try both and use the DLTA pods to fine-tune the fit. You can also email us at service@omahasportsandgames.com for sizing assistance.
Can I customize the facemask or shell color beyond what is listed?
VICIS offers a custom builder on their website where you can design your own Trench with a wider range of facemask styles and color options. The configurations listed here (Molded Gloss Black and Molded Gloss White) are the standard in-stock variants. For custom builds, please note that lead times will typically be longer than in-stock orders.
