Measure circumference around child's head starting at the forehead above the eyebrows.

Get a flat tape measure (like your granny used in sewing) and measure your head right above the ears. A lot of hats sold have a size chart. And if you have thick curly hair take accountability for that in your measuring. Most one size fits all is for small heads....hint.

I would go to the Triple 8 website, once there look under product and you will find a chart with directions on how to get the best fit for your child. I measured both of my childrens head circumference and bought the size recommended and both fit perfectly. If your child's head circumference is between 20.10-20.50 inches then XS size would work.

Yes, I'd say the same as TT, you need to measure the head. Then I looked around google for sizes regarding head size when trying to fit our daughters helmet.

What I would do is I would measure the circumference of your head at your forehead. Take a tape measure and wrap it around your head at the forehead and go down to the top of your neck, then go off of a helmet sizing chart that you can either try to find on amazon or the internet.

I got size information from the product website. It tells you how to measure your dog's head to determine what size to buy. Works well for us.

It may be a bit big, but you could probably adapt it by adding some elastic or velcro. Of course it depends on the child's head size.

It fit my 2 year old pretty well. Her head is about average. I don't know what age it tops at but can only assume a 4 year old would be covered. There is an adjustable strap.

I think if you go to the Troxel website they will give you information about sizing. We were buying a starter helmet for a small head. The band is adjustable but you need to make sure that you are starting in the ballpark.

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 head. If you find you are between two sizes, then I recommend her the bigger one. Brainsaver Rubber Helmet Sizing Chart: To ensure a perfect fit, measure the circumference of your head starting in the middle of your forehead and match it with the sizes below. XS 20.10 in - 20.50 in (51-52cm), S 20.60 in - 21.30 in (52-54cm), M 21.40 in - 22.00 in (54-56cm), L 22.10 in - 22.90 in (56-58cm), XL 23.00 in - 24.00 in (58-60cm)

Measure or get a measurement around his head right above the ears and that number will help you determine. That's how I measured and ordered my daughters and her helmet fits perfectly.

You need to measure his/her head. Small is 20 3/8"-21 5/8", Medium is 22"-22 3/4", and Large is 22 3/4"-24 3/8". Hope this helps.

Not sure that it would. I guess it depends on the size of your child's head. The size small fits my 8 year old daughter, but we do have to tighten the chin strap as tight as it will go. Her head measures approximately 19.5-20". The size small fits up to 21 5/8" according to Troxel's website, but I don't know the lower end of the range. I suggest fitting in a store.

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.
