We currently do not make Motorcycle helmets for children. However, size SMALL in our new Bicycle helmet (Hedstrong) may fit some children. 

DOT and ECE are both compulsory certification standards. ECE is certified by the Economic Commission for Europe, whilst DOT is certified by the Department of Transportation for the US. Please ensure that you have the correct certification for where you intend to ride.

Most items in the Sample Sale have a defect and so are sold at a reduced price; please note that the safety of the helmet will not have been compromised. However, not all Sample Sale products will have a defect, some are merely custom helmets that have been ordered incorrectly/returned by customers. (Please see each individual listing for details on the severity of the defect, if any).

All of our colours are hand mixed and so we cannot provide you with an exact colour code. We can however give you the closest matching Pantone colour code (for solid colours only). Please note, we are currently also in the process of trialling/developing home re-touch paint kits, which will be available to customers in the near future.
