| A soft measuring tape is an excellent tool to determine the correct circumference of the user's head in centimeters and get a rough idea of what helmet size will fit them best. If you do not have a soft tape, use string. Do not use a metal tape as it will not give an accurate measurement. | |
| 1.) Have the user stand facing you while looking straight ahead. If you don't want to make direct eye contact stare at the uni-brow and try not to laugh. (Tip: when fitting small children it is helpful to kneel in front of them so you are at eye level.) |
|
| 2.) Using both hands, hold the measuring tape at each end with the centimeter marks facing away from you. If you are using inches here is a centimeters conversion chart. |
|
| 3.) Place the fit tape behind the user's head just above the ears. This is where it starts to get a little intimate. |
|
| 4.) Wrap the side in your right hand around to the front of their forehead so the end of the tape is centered between (and just above) the eyebrows. |
|
| 5.) Wrap the side in your left hand around (just above the ears and brow) to overlap the end of the tape with a snug fit. Read the measurement at the end of the tape to determine circumference measurement in centimeters. |
|
| 6.) Remove measuring tape and record the measurement. This number can be used to narrow the helmet size selection using the helmet-sizing chart above. |
