In the world of sports continuous improvement is necessary, and thankfully these sports apparel innovations will keep teams on the cutting edge. The refusal to evolve could end in disaster, and adjustments in sports can range from the mundane such as aerodynamic jerseys, to marvelous concussion preventative headgear.
These sports apparel innovations continue to push pro-sports further into the future. It's hard to tell where sports will be in ten years, but thankfully these developments will ensure better safety for a number of different events. For baseball, non-breakable bats would be a great way for athletes to avoid blinding splints in the eyes, and better headgear will hopefully protect from receiving any concussion at all.
