The Vision
The innovation journey began when Ozhan Akcakaya, frustrated by traditional face saver headguards that limited his agility, approached Dr. Turker Biyikli. He emphasised the urgent need for a lighter design with improved visibility, stating, "We need something that doesn’t just protect but enhances movement." Dr. Biyikli recognised the potential for innovation, aiming to keep the headgear's weight under 14 ounces to significantly improve athlete performance.
For Boxers Who prioritise impact protection without sacrificing their vision.
The HIT N MOVE Face Saver boxing Headguard marks a significant advancement in protective sports gear, developed by Ozhan Akcakaya, a dedicated martial artist, and Dr. Turker Biyikli, a leading expert in sports safety technology. Their shared vision was to create a headgear that not only offers superior protection but also enhances mobility and vision for athletes when sparring.
