Matte Finish, Two Tone Chrome Heads

April 12, 2011 / Lacrosse Playground /


Chrome came on the scene around this time last year. We saw chrome in the hands of college players, then pro players and now it is available to everyone. We learned today that chrome will soon be available in a matte finish with tonal colors. Matte finish is also quite popular these days on collegiate helmets such as Duke. The head is coated with a dull, no-gloss finish. As you can see in the image the matte finish makes the glossy chrome shine even brighter. It is really apparent with the Black/Silver as well as the Blue/Silver colorways.

Lacrosse Playground

In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.
