Find Your Perfect Schutt Helmet Fit
Proper helmet fit is critical for both safety and performance on the field. This guide will help you measure and select the right Schutt helmet size for maximum protection and comfort.
How to Measure Your Head
- Get a flexible measuring tape - Use a soft fabric measuring tape for accurate results
- Measure the circumference - Wrap the tape around your head about 1 inch above your eyebrows, across the widest part of your head
- Record the measurement - Note the measurement in both inches and centimeters
- Measure twice - Take a second measurement to ensure accuracy

Proper Fit Guidelines
A properly fitted Schutt helmet should:
- Sit level on your head - The front edge should be about 1 inch above your eyebrows
- Feel snug but comfortable - No pressure points, but shouldn't move when you shake your head
- Make contact all around - Padding should touch your forehead, sides, and back of head evenly
- Allow proper vision - You should have full peripheral vision with the facemask on
- Not slide or rotate - The helmet should stay in place during movement
Adjustment Tips
Most Schutt helmets feature adjustable padding systems. Here's how to fine-tune your fit:
- Use inflation systems (if equipped) to customize fit around your head shape
- Adjust chin strap to ensure helmet doesn't tilt forward or backward
- Replace worn padding to maintain proper fit and protection
- Re-check fit at the start of each season as head size may change
Youth Sizing
Youth helmets follow similar sizing principles but are designed for younger players. Always prioritize safety over aesthetics - a helmet that's too large or small compromises protection.
