Description states "exceeds DOT standards," but is this helmet DOT approved?

It has the DOT sticker on the back of the helmet...I realize it's still up for debate if it is legit but the helmet seems well made for my purposes. I bit bulky but light enough.

I don't know about the applicable DOT regs on this, I bought it because it is a very safe, affordable, useful and convenient way to signal a road hazard.

KPS safety certification passed item(Not DOT). This product is a product produced Korea. kps than a DOT approval is difficult.

CERTIFICATION: ASTM 1492, CPSC 1203, AS/NZS, refer to the protec website. Also checked the sticker inside the helmet, it says the helmet complies with the CPSC standard for children's helmets for kids over 5 yrs of age. Hope that helps with the decision.

Absolutely NOT! This helmet is plastic, meant for paintball and airsoft ONLY. This piece will not save your life. Also, if you have a small head, you will have a hard time fitting into this.

There is no leather on it. The inside, straps, and brim are all different material. Somewhat expected from an inexpensive, non-DOT approved, novelty helmet.

Good news! It's Shiny and not matte!. It fits the best I've seen of all the DOT helmets! It sits super low!!! It had a funny smell when I got it but a small odor killer works just fine. It sits very nice on the head.

The piece securing it is a very elastic rubber. It can probably be tweaked to fit most helmets.

It tells you in the description I didn't see qualifier on the list of helmets.I'm going to say it doesn't

I'm guessing they are supplied by different vendors. Probably both the same size, just labeled by the vendors differently. Great helmet by the way.

I don't think it is a certified helmet, but it works great and I would still recommend using it to save you from cracking open your skull...

Sure. If you live in a state with no helmet law you can any kind of stupid hat you want while you ride. If your state has helmet laws your hat stack will neither protect you nor meet the laughable DOT standards. Seriously, no one should buy this thing unless it is as a joke. It is terrible.

Mine had the correct DOT markings. I simply exchanged the tank at my local welding shop.

Don't get the helmet. It is just too damn big. I still use it. I feel safe with it. I am too cheap to splurge on a new one yet but it is dorky bigggggg. i am not sure about the size and I am too lazy right now to check for you. Good luck. If you do get it, it is a decent helmet.

It does not say. It just says Snell DOT. It may have been on the box but I don't have that anymore.

Hi John, Yes, right. The description doesn't have the information. As far as I remember, the age printed in the product tag was 7~8. (I don't remember exactly). My daughter is 5 and the helmet is a bit big for her. We added extra padding inside the helmet. Hope this helps! Dookun
