shadow47 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Is there a 961 "look" mask that fits a larger head well? I want to wear the style for a tribute set but I have heard they are a narrow fit and I usually wear a 7 3/4 or bigger hat size. It seems like every company has their own version of this mask shape. Just wondered if anyone knew of one that might work for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the exact profile of the old Itech models, but it may be close enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagoal Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 (edited) I too wear a 7 3/4 hat and I have an NME mask in fit 3 that fits great. I also have a Sportmask in size L, 60 cm size...not that a Sportmask is 961ish, just for reference though. Are you one or two snap dots from the end on typical snapback hats? I'm two.

Chenner29 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 If you're not married to Bauer but want the same styling, the Otny CC has a very generous fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a one or none when the hat wants to The Otny CC may be what I'm looking for. Anything but the one size fits most. I tried a Protechsport version but it wasn't a match. Haven't tried on the newest Bauers but assumed they were about same fit wise. Edited November 11, 2021 by shadow47 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Coveted 906 is similar. Comes in an XL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAngle41 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I'd usually be in a 960 as my face is slim (hat size is 7 1/8)... but I picked up a Fit 1 NME VTX and it's been fantastic. Jaw portion is a little wider than it would be on a 960... but no issue with range of motion against C/A and visibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beansbats Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 The Itech / Bauer Profile 9601, if you can find one, does better with larger heads than the 961. I believe it is what Price wore early in his career. They have become a bit of a collectors item in the last few years. -steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoalNet Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Have you tried the new Bauer 960 Size L? They have S, M, L and now. The L is big. OG 960 did not fit me great. I have a big head. the M is great is the and the L is too larger. NME family is the next logical choice, but that is more for a wider face 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
