Since proper fit is important for the comfort of the person wearing headgear, measurements should be determined by professional personnel.
Measure the head circumference (A) at eyebrow level. Occipital measurement (B) is taken from eyebrow level to the back of the head at the point that the helmet is to end. Over the top of the Head (C) to top of ears.
If for some reason the measurements do not fall within the above guidelines, or if there are other considerations to be taken into account, please contact Rehabmart Quotes, quotes@rehabmart.com, with your measurements to receive a Custom Helmet quote. When contacting, please include measurements above and measurement "D" which is taken from the eyebrows to the bottom of the chin. Measurement "E" is taken from the eyebrows to the top of the head, at eyebrow level following the contour of the head, to the point where it intersects with the ear-to-ear measurement. For ear coverings "F":": Height of ears, "G": Width of ears, "H": Extension (distance that the ears extend from the head). See below for chart.
