Are there any custom lacrosse facemasks, like they have in football?

I know it probably wouldn't be practical, but I would buy one just for looks sake, and was curious if there were any out there.

Edit: Not visors. Facemasks.

Im pretty sure there arent any. They have to make them so that a ball doesnt get through. The only difference would be from the designs companies have. But you cant change them for different company's helmets.

there is no way what so ever that's a hockey facemask, the puck would fly right through it

Wrong, there are. Give the boys at Otny Wire a holler and they'll do anything.

Yes, several times on several helmets. His helmet at the World Games in london was a viking/cpro combo

So then if something breaks, you just put it back on the original helmet and send i in on warranty.... pretty simple.

Exactly. That's how it's done.

They'll make custom facemasks? Do they have a website?

Edit: After spending 2 seconds searching, I found it myself. :-P

The custom lacrosse cages don't look too different, but there are "more cages in the works"

That would be cool to have a revolution type of facemask, but make it with added bars obviously. That way it would be safe, because Revolution Facemasks are sweet.
