All helmets that we sell meet NOCSAE standards (National
Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment). The fit is critical and we have supplied you with sizing
charts for each helmet. Some helmets come with a built in inflation
chamber to customize the fit and protection. No helmet prevents concussions,
but the University of Pittsburgh recently completed a study that found that
athletes who wore the
Riddell Revolution Helmet were 31% less likely to suffer a
concussion.
Maintenance of correct fitting is essential to
the use of all protective equipment. Follow these general guidelines when
determining your football helmet size. Measure head circumference using a
cloth measuring tape (or piece of string). Circumference should be
measured about one inch about eyebrows. Take these measurements and refer
to the sizing charts accompanying each product description to determine the
helmet size to purchase. The positioning of your football helmet is also
key. With the helmet on and while holding down, the helmet should fit so
the front edge is approximately 1 inch about the eyebrows.
