    A note for parents

    For children aged 3-4 and up, our small size (49-55 cm) should fit well. Always measure your child's head before purchasing, as head sizes can vary considerably among children of the same age. The beauty of SafeFit is that it can grow with your child, adapting as their head shape changes.

    Remember: the safest helmet is the one that fits properly and is worn consistently.
