High Cut Helmet Size and Weights
- Circumference is measured around head, similar to hat sizing. All sizes are measured in inches.
- Start with a measuring tape (or a piece of string you can measure later), and wrap it around your head. Place the tape where your helmet will typically sit at the middle of your forehead and about 1/8″ above your ear. Hold the tape firmly, but not uncomfortably tight. Find your size using the chart below.
- If a measurement falls on a dividing line between sizes, select the larger of the two sizes.
| HELMET SIZE | HAT SIZE | HEAD CIRCUMFERENCE | SHELL WEIGHT | TOTAL WEIGHT |
| Medium | 6 3/4 to 7 1/8 | 21.9″ to 22.7″ | 2.6 lbs | 2.8 lbs |
| Large | 7 1/4 to 7 1/2 | 22.7″ to 24″ | 2.7 lbs | 2.9 lbs |
| Xlarge | 7 1/2 to 7 7/8 | 24″ to 26″ | 2.9 lbs | 3.1 lbs |
