Size/Fit Information

Determine your head shape:

Knowing your head shape is a vital first step in choosing the best, safe and secure fitting helmet. Generally, riders fall into 3 different head shape categories: Intermediate Oval, Oval, and Round Head shapes. Figuring out which head shape you are should be done before shopping online for helmets, as it will decrease unnecessary wait time when having to return or exchange a product. Voss suggests going into your nearest power sport dealer to get properly fit into different helmets and find out exactly what specifications work best for you. Improperly fitting helmets will be less safe, and can leave you with a considerable amount of pain being caused by pressure points.

How to Measure your head:

Use a soft measuring tape to measure the circumference of your head, about 1 cm above your eyebrows. Make sure to measure around the widest part of your head, all the way around the back, and to your eyebrows again. Try to have the measuring tape evenly laid around your head.

**If you do not have a soft measuring tape, use a string in the same way as indicated above to measure your head. Then lay the string straight and measure it with a ruler.

If you cannot measure the head of the person who the helmet is for, measure the inside of a current helmet or a hat they wear frequently.

Lastly, compare your measurement to the Voss Helmets Size Chart found on each product page to determine your correct fit.

If you’re between sizes, we generally recommend sizing down for a more secure fit, as comfort padding will gradually compress over time.

Are Voss Helmets smaller than other brands?

Voss Helmets are designed with a true-to-size fit, but every rider’s head shape is unique. Our fit tends to feel more contoured and secure than some brands with rounder shells — particularly in our full-face and modular models.

If you typically wear a medium in most brands, you’ll likely be a medium with Voss, though riders with round head shapes may prefer sizing up.

How Do Liners Work? (Liner Guidelines)

Our interior liners are removable, washable, and replaceable, designed for long-term comfort and hygiene.
Each liner is made from sweat-wicking, antimicrobial fabric and can be removed for cleaning.
We also offer optional liner and cheek pad sizes to help you fine-tune your fit — for example, a tighter cheek pad for a snug feel, or a thinner one for more room.

Always ensure your liner and cheek pads are fully seated and secure before riding. For step by step liner instructions, email hello@vossdot.com or visit our How to Guides page for a walkthrough video.
