Measure the circumference of your head by placing the measuring tape roughly one inch above the eyebrow. Different helmet manufacturers have different sizing, so consult the size chart for the particular helmet that you are purchasing. Also consider how you will wear your hair in your helmet. If you are planning on wearing your hair up inside the helmet, allow room for this when choosing a size. When you receive the helmet, place it on your head without fastening the harness. If applicable, adjust the dial on the back of the helmet. Make sure the brim is resting no more than one inch above your eyebrows. Gently try to move the brim up and down. If your eyebrows move, your helmet fits correctly from front to back. Next, shake your head side to side, to the left and to the right. The helmet should remain in place. If either of these tests result in movement, you will want to drop down a size. If the helmet seems to be "perched" on top of your head, you will want to consider moving up a size.

"Such a comfortable hat! I had the chance to see how it works when I fell off last month. . . . I hit my head hard on the ground, and really, my head was just fine afterwards! So thankful for this hat. And the vents help keep a little cooler. . . a priority when riding in the Houston summer heat! Also, I love the maroon color. It's hard to find, but Schneiders had it!"
"Great lightweight helmet to use for schooling and schooling shows. Wish it came in other colors"
"Love the fit of this helmet."
"I bought this helmet to replace my Troxel Sierra that was damaged in a fall (holla for head protection!). It's possible I have an odd shaped head, but it does get a little uncomfortable after more than an hour of wearing. Not an all-day leisure helmet. But it's snug and safe which is what I bought it for! Stays put for high performance like barrel racing."
"This hit my daughters temple funny and thus was uncomfortable. We returned and our Chagrin Falls store staff were very helpful finding the right fit for her. This was a present so she hadn't tried it previous to purchase."
