Hi Julie, I bought this helmet for my 18 year old. We ordered a large which I think will fit 7 1/4 to 7 3/4 head size. We love this helmet my son is a bull rider and when needed we will order it again. I would go to a sporting goods store to get measurements because I don't think Amazon offers them. We went to a western store to get the size we needed. Good luck!!

There are some adjustments that can be made after you determine the approximate size but fit also depends on the shape of the head as helmets all fit a little differently. One manufacturers product will fit just fine and the same size from another will be uncomfortable.

I wear a 7 3/4 hat size, and this helmet fits me fine after adjustments. The only think is, I can't wear my glasses with it (the ear pieces fit too tightly around the temples).

I think the safety rating is the same, it's just sized smaller. A large youth size might not fit you, so check the fit/sizing info to be sure.

It will fit you. My son is 5'9 and it fits him, so it may be a little big on you. He loves his. Good quality, easy to put on and take off. But, there are no instructions that come with it, so you have to figure it out on your own. It's pretty easy to figure out though. Have fun with it. My son uses it to play air soft with his friends. Not sure if playing paintball in it is good because I'm not sure if the paint will come off. I hope this answer helps you!

They ran VERY small. My son is 7 yrs old and wears a kids size 8. I bought a kids size 10 so he could grow into it. It was so small, that it barely fit. I don't know if the adult sizes run the same, but Iwould go a few sizes bigger for sure.

I bought a size small (5/6) for my 5yr old grandson. The jersey top was a bit short wasted but he is tall for his age. The pants were fine as they are capri length anyway. The helmet is one size fits all so for little guys may bit a bit big. Hope that helps.

It fits my 9 year old -- he is quite tall but on the thin side. He wears a boys size 14.

I also purchased the size small youth for my grandson last year who was 3 yrs old. It was a little big but useable, he's now 4 and it fits him perfectly. The pants are snug and the top is still roomy. I would guess it's about a size 5T to a 6T. I was also confused with the sizing, normally it would be in the "T" sizes, 2T, 3T, etc. So I took the chance that the small would fit him and I was pleased with the fit. The helmet was big and still is but he loves it and I'm getting ready to get him a size Medium. Hope that helps a little.

My opinion: Fits my 9yr old. He is on the smaller side of 9. Yes, it IS big for him. It is really seems to be made for an adult, but the straps are adjustable. He uses it for school and it works fine for that. Military style and camo were the key here for him.

I purchased the small for my 9 year old and the medium for my 16 year old. Hope that helps.

I bought the medium size for my daughter, she is 7 years old and thin. It runs a little bit big but she wears it with a long sleeve t-shirt. But If the boy is 9 years old and big I think that it will be narrow, particularly the pants.

Hi Annie. I would buy your son the Youth size. He will actually use that size up to middle school. I bought the collegiate size for my son as he is a rising college football player. Good luck to your son! I think he'll enjoy the sport as my two sons have. :^)

Well they are not large in size. My son is 10 and he wears a shirt size 10/12 and I got him the extra large and it is not too big. It is big enough that he will be able to wear it next fall too but the sizes do run small.

these run very small for size description given... the medium fits my 9 year old grandson who is about 4'6" or 7" and he weighs only about 85 pounds I think you would need to go up at least two sizes

My son wears a 9 wide, and I got the L/XL. It barely fits, very snug. Seems to work adequately well.

Last year I bought my 11 year old stepson a medium. It was too small for him but fit my 5 year old. This says it's a youth jacket but it's more child sized. My advice is to either get the biggest size they have, or go with a different vest altogether

best answer I can give is the product is very adjustable. My son is normal height(50-55 in) and weight(~75lbs) for a 9 year old. The product currently fits well around his arm and shoulder. I believe it will work well for him growing up. I use it myself and I'm 5' 9" 200lbs. I purchased additional ice packs/cooler to extend it's use as games. My son is a pitcher/SS. Hope this helps.

I would recommend a small. My son is 9 and 90lbs and the small fit him snug. We recently move up to a medium which provide more room.
