these answers regarding whether it's an adult helmet or a childs are so confusing ... there are adult men saying they bought one and then a woman saying she bought it for her 4 year old son. why isn't this just made simple and indicates whether this is...

Measure the diameter of his head and pull up the chart, look for men's sizes. Order the closest size to what you measured. The helmet has adjustments for more or less on the size. That's what I did and it worked perfectly. Nice helmet!

it comes in different sizes. I have one with S/M. So, it will go for both adults and youths.

These are mostly youth sized helmets. My daughter is 10 and it fits her perfectly. I don't think it will fit an adult woman unless you are really small.

i don't know if it would fit a 5 year old kid. Most small adult helmets will fit if tightened up and they can grow into it. Unless the kid has a melon head. in that case, it could be too small. lol

it is for adults. My wife loved hers so much my dad bought one for my mom as well.

My 6 year old wears a large and it fits him very well. You might try a small but use the sizing chart as we found it to be accurate. My boy rolled a 4 wheeler over on himself when the helmet was still new and it took the beating without him being harmed. In my opinion it is a very well made helmet. Just like the adult motorcycle helmets only kid sized.

Well if you trust putting it on a child's head, I would assume it's just as safe for an adult as it would I child. Yes the "crash resistance" is the same. Just because you put it on your head or a five year olds head it's still the same helmet.

Since I bought it on line without realizing I bought the small one. I find for adults it is pretty tight to use it. for children it should be alright and also smaller sized adults.

It's built more for a teenager. I'd have to say the average teen between 11-16 would be perfect. It's built big so a small to average adult could probably wear it too. Our son was 9 when he got it and it almost swallowed him up. He'll definitely be wearing it for years it it doesn't tear up. A 4 year old is way too small for this.

I bought this for the same issue. I don't have the actual measurement but can tell you that my 2.5 year old has a head circumfrence that is literally off the chart. I bought this for him and it fits him nicely. It fits my almost 5 year old too, so I ended up buying two. Its a slightly different shape than other bike helmets (this is a little rounder than typical bike helmets), which actually works better for my 2.5 year old son. They used them for most of the summer, left them out in the rain at times and they are both in really good shape - the decal hasn't peeled or scraped off and the buckles and foam have held up well. I would recommend this. I bought this for the same issue. I don't have the actual measurement but can tell you that my 2.5 year old has a head circumfrence that is literally off the chart.

Hello! Sorry, but I am not able to help you with those infos - the box was delivered to a friend and I got only the helmet. But I wouldn't recommend this helmet anyway...

In my review of this helmet, I included Troxel's size chart (see below). While people are saying their young children (i.e. age 4) can wear this helmet, it's waaaaaay too big for my 8 year old & would provide zero protection. Her head measures roughly 19.5" & the size small could not be tightened enough to fit. The Troxel Legacy is smaller & it does fit her. "Measure your child's head & line it up with Troxel's size chart! You can find their sizing on the specific helmet's product page & then select the 'Specifications' tab.

I think it's an adult, because they usually list the kids' items separately. I bought my daughter the women's Small last year because they didn't have any kid sizes available. She normally wears a child's' 10/12, so it was big, but it worked ok for her. She'll probably get a couple more years out of it!

good question - i don't know. i checked both versions and even the adult version says kids age 3 and older.. but i don't think it makes such a big difference since its all natural? i give my kids the adult version too if i am out of the kids one.

Yes i'm 27 and I wear it all the time. I modified it to be a NFL inspired helmet that i wear to games and various events. There's foam head support along with support along the eyes on the inside.

What I did, because I was not sure either, was I went off her hat size (e.g. is her winter hat a toddler size, or child size?) In my personal experience, a small child sized snug winter hat (not knit) meant that a child sized helmet fit perfectly. To double check, a quick trip to the helmet section of a Target or Kmart would probably verify the correct size. Best wishes.

It's for an adult. I have a full size head and it fits perfect, so for someone smaller it may be big
