Overview
The CCM FM580 Cage has many of the same features as the popular FM480, but with a few performance-focused refinements. CCM widened the cage to increase visibility, and they also upgraded to a dual-density floating chin cup with a microwick liner.
| WHICH CCM HOCKEY HELMET CAGE COLOR SHOULD YOU GET? | |
|---|---|
| Black: Reduces visual clutter and can make the view through the bars feel cleaner, similar to eye-black, it reduces perceived glare and helps the puck and ice "pop" against the darker frame. Great for players who want an aggressive, low-profile look while subtly improving contrast. | |
| White: Create contrast against the black puck and darker rink features, which can make the puck easier to pick up in your vision. If you play in bright arenas or want maximum puck visibility, white is a solid choice. | |
| Black/White Combo: The two-tone option combines the visual benefits of both black and white; the white helps puck contrast while the black sections keep the classic "oreo" look. | |
| Silver: Silver offers a neutral, distraction-free view that neither disappears into the ice or competes with the puck. | |
| Chrome: Chrome gives you the same clear, neutral sightlines as silver but with an eye-catching, flashy finish. If you want the performance of silver with a serious style, chrome is your option. |

Customer Reviews
CageI wasn't used to a cage. Took a few games to get use to it. The inner wire is white so that does make a big difference.
Previous Feedback
Comments: I love this cage. It made the transition from visor to cage much easier since it has great visibility and the floating chin cup really works well for my bearded face. Absolutely recommend it.
From: Vik , Norfolk, VA
Comments: This facemask has held up well, I really wanted to play with just a visor but I decided it's not worth the risk. The first game putting this on my v10,took a slap shot to the face from one of the bigger stronger shooters in the league. No dents, not chipped pant, and no pain. The only thing I would like is a better chin cup but it's not that big of a deal. The fit is perfect and the small and medium facemasks fit the medium helmet perfectly, I was impressed enough with mine to buy my wife one aswell for her v10.
From: Kyle, Overland Park, KS
Comments: This is a very nice helmet. I used it to replace my old Bauer cage ind it fit perfectly. It also looks very nice with a black or white helmet and I would definitely recommend this to anybody looking for a new cage.
