Boxing Head Gear is a padded sparring helmet made for boxing practice. In play it is light head protection that also gives a little warmth. It comes in two colours with the same stats, Red and Blue.
Its main strength is fair protection for the head at almost no weight. Its main cost is that it cuts both sight and hearing by a quarter. It also takes the full head slot, so no hat, glasses or mask can be worn with it.
Boxing Head Gear is found in boxing gyms, sports storage rooms, changing room lockers and gym storage. Some zombies wear it as well. The Tailor is the best occupation for protective gear. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
Boxing Head Gear stops about three in ten bites on the head and half of all scratches. It keeps the head a little warm but blocks very little wind. That makes it a fair choice in mild weather.
The padding cuts how far the wearer sees and hears by a quarter. Zombies come into view and earshot later, which matters when moving through the open.
The Hockey Helmet and the Football Helmet both stop far more bites, at seven in ten. They carry the same or a larger cut to sight. The Football Helmet is also much warmer but heavier and less comfortable. Boxing Head Gear is the lighter, weaker option.
The head gear takes the Full Head slot. It cannot be worn with hats, glasses, eye masks, face masks, breathing masks or anything with a hood.
Variations
The Boxing Head Gear comes in 2 versions with the same stats. Only the look changes.

Notes
- Some zombies wear it, so it can be taken from bodies.
- It blocks glasses, so it is a poor fit for a character who needs them.
- Boxing Gloves and Boxing Shorts turn up in the same rooms.
- Boxing gyms hold it far more often than any other place.
