A hockey goalie type helmet with a shell which wraps fully around the face, jaw and chin, with a face opening covered by a cage, wherein the shell is formed with a recess around the face opening adapted to receive the cage in a recessed fit such that the cage edges lie below the adjacent primary surfaces of the shell to prevent blows from pucks or sticks from catching the edges of the cage. In a preferred form the recess extends fully around the face opening to receive and recess the entirety of the top, side and bottom edges of the cage. The recess further includes a reinforcing ridge formed into the helmet shell in a manner which creates a bend or fold in the shell overlying the recess and cage edges, and to increase the strength and stiffness of the shell around the face opening.
