Frequent Questions
Review the common questions we receive below to find the answers you may need. For any other concerns, just reach out to us via our contact page.
What is underneath the hat (cover)?
Under each Bandbox helmet cover, we sell CPSC-approved YAKKAY Helmets (bicycle) and ASTM-approved IRH Helmets (equestrian).
What size should I order?
Use a tape measure to determine the circumference of your head one inch above your eyebrows. Select your size based on the measurement:
Equestrian Helmet:
- XS 19.5"-20.5" (49.5-52 cm)
- S/M 20.6"-21.7" (52-55cm)
- M/L 22"- 23.7" (55-60 cm)
- XL -23.8"-25" (55-63.5cm)
Bicycle Helmet:
- Medium 20-22" (51-56cm)
- Large 21.7-23.2" (55-59cm)
- XL 22.8-24" (58-61cm)
What prevents the helmet cover from flying off while riding? Will the wide-brimmed styles interfere with my vision in windy conditions? Will flowers and ribbons, and other trims be secure?
Our covers are secured either with either channel and drawstrings or elastic hatbands. Wide brim models are wired to prevent deflection in windy conditions. All trim is securely hand-sewn, and all cover designs have been field-tested, riding 35 mph down a 12% grade to assure satisfactory performance.
I have a Bandbox Helmet. Can I still buy covers to fit my Bandbox helmet?
While we no longer sell Bandbox helmets, we still offer covers that fit this design; select the Bandbox helmet option when specifying the size. Should you not get asked for the type of helmet you have, the cover will fit both YAKKAY and Bandbox helmets. ur covers are not designed to fit over other helmet configurations.
