Saw these "new space age ventilated 13% lighter" CoolFlo batting helmets for the first time today on the Mets and Cubs televised Spring Training games.
Wonder if Mark knows about these and if they're being incorporated into new upcoming figures?
I think they're ugly as sin, especially the Mets two tone version.

11 teams have opted to use these CoolFlo helmets this year, with seven teams using them already in Spring Training (Cubs, Mets, Dodgers, Diamondbacks, Devil Rays, and Angels). The Twins, A's, Braves and Padres will start wearing them when the season opens. Here's pics of the other five clubs:

I'm sure traditionalists are having a hard time with this. Ventilated so that players don't overheat? Is this really necessary with the length of the average at bat?

Maybe they're selling the players on these, telling them that the ventilation will keep their head from sweating, and they'll keep their hair longer...
