General Sizing information

If you are unsure about your size, compare your body measurements to the charts provided to determine the correct fit. These charts will give you a good idea of the size to order, but be sure to read special sizing information that may accompany an item description. Some merchandise dimensions may vary from the averages charted here.

Head Measurement

Measure your head size by wrapping a cloth tape measure horizontally around your head at a height of roughly one inch (2.5cm) above your eyebrows. This will give you a measurement of the largest portion of your head. Select the helmet that is closest to your head size. Oftentimes your head measurement may fall between two helmet sizes, if this occurs, try the smaller of the two sizes first.

Check for Proper Fit

With the helmet on, go through the following checklist:

Does the inner lining fit snugly around your entire head?
Does the top pad press closely around the dome of your head?
Are your cheek pads in contact with cheeks?
Does the brow lining fit snugly against brow (you should not be able to insert fingers between the lining and your brow)?
Take hold of the helmet with a hand on each side. Without moving your head, try to move the helmet up and down, side to side. You should feel the skin of your head and face being pulled as you try to move the helmet. If you can move the helmet around easily, it is too big and you should try a smaller size.

killer deal

Review by peter from sand point, ID on 7/14/2011

I just got a killer deal on my Shoei by calling Chaparral’s order desk, I saw the internet price and thought wow they sure are proud of them helmets, but then I read at the bottom to call for Chaparral's price. When I called they explained that Shoei controls the advertising price online but they can discount over the phone and I got a Shoei Qwest Airfoil Full Face Helmet. It is the best helmet I have ever worn. The padding and vents make the helmet for me.
