Fitting Guide - Shadow
CHOOSING THE RIGHT HELMET SIZE
A proper fitting helmet is integral to a helmet’s performance. Please follow the instructions below to be sure your Xenith product is fitted properly. Measurements for helmet size should be taken 1" inch above the eyebrow around the circumference of the head. The size chart is recommended as a guideline only. Individual head sizes may vary.
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
Follow these steps to ensure your Xenith Shadow fits properly or reference the videos and additional tutorials on this page. Accessories such as Sizing Pads, Comfort Pads, and Jaw Guards are available to enhance your fit.
1PLACE THE HELMET ON YOUR HEAD
Unbuckle the straps and place the helmet on your head so the front edge rests just above your brow. Then pull the lower chin straps outward until the chin cup slides up to meet your chin. The internal suspension system will tighten until it feels snug and secure around your head.2ADJUST THE LOW BUCKLES & SECURE
Slide each buckle along the chin strap until you can snap the buckle into place on the outside of the helmet with no discomfort or slack in the straps.
3ADJUST THE HIGH BUCKLES & SECURE
Pull the high chin straps upwards so that the chin cup sits comfortably under your chin. Repeat Step 2 on the high straps, snapping them into place once the helmet is secure and fits comfortably – again making sure there’s no slack in the straps.4CHECK FOR PROPER FIT
With all four buckles snapped into place, apply mild force to the facemask in multiple directions. If there is excessive movement, tighten the chin straps and readjust the buckles until you’ve achieved a snug, secure fit.
5LOCK THE BUCKLES IN PLACE
Once your helmet is comfortable and secure, feed the end of the chin strap through the second slot of each buckle to lock in the fit.
