XLV SIZE: interesting of all the the good reviews NOT ONE mentioned the SIZE of their HEAD dah, what's large or extra so . . . . . do they sport an 8 or 9 size head ?????????????

it seems that would be a good assumption to make, Allan, since a "8 or 9 size" is considered "large" by most manufacturers

I have had them only a week! I think that an over the head type may be better..I bought these because I ride the train to work and back, and in the winter I wear a big furry hat!So over the head type was not practical.

No... these headphones are only for pinheads. Just kidding, I wear a size xl motorcycle helmet and these are plenty big for me. I bought a second set for my son... he's 10 and these will fit his little head too. The only thing that I find too small about these is the earcups, they are on the small side... but they fit my son perfect and he says they are his favorite pair.

hahaha mate without knowing your head size it would be unfair of me to comment on this, but they are very flexible for my medium sized head ha so should be OK!!

Sorry so late to reply, but I just now saw this. I have a pretty big head (hat size 7 3/4) and these fit fine. They go around the back of your neck, not over the crown of your head. It's possible your head might be too wide, ears too far apart (everyone's head is shaped differently), but they work fine and are very comfortable on my big head.

They're adjustable, so fairly long. Big heads run in my family, so much so that during my last year in pee-wee football I had to get my helmet from the highschool. If it can fit my head, they're long enough.

My son has a normal to large head. I measured it today at 23 3/4". Given the amount of velcro on the straps, 21" would fit. It's just a matter of adjusting all the straps to get the best fit. I looked everywhere and couldn't find a sizing guide for their headgear, but here's the one for every other thing they make http://www.cliffkeen.com/Catalog/Global.aspx?PageID=SizingInformation I'd call them direct for more info 1-800-992-0799. I called, but the office was closed. Good luck!

I ordered the infant pair (small) for my 1 year old. His head circumference has always been in the 80th+ percentile. I don't remember how much he weighed last summer when I bought them, but this summer he is 2 years old (March) and weighs 30lbs. They still fit him comfortably. At first he wasn't coordinated enough to really keep them on, now that he's older he actually enjoys them. (If the kids are really young I'd recommend getting some with a head strap, however the upside is that these are pretty much indestructible as many of the reviews state). Good luck!

I just asked a co-worker to try them on (asking him first if he thought he had a big head) and he said they were fine. I guess unless you are say a troll they will probably be OK. I purchased them to be used by middle school and high school students, and even the trolls among them have not reached full size. I hope this helps you!

I didn't measure--I just know that I have an unusually large head! So, XL was the obvious choice. Wish I could tell you more than that. Susan D.

Every kid's different. I bought my six year old (a bit bigger than normal) a medium and he instantly complained that it hurt his head. I measured -- which I should've done in the first place -- and he's more like an XL. Big headed kid I guess...

It says 5+. Because of these answers, I bought it for a 4 year old with a large head, and it doesn't fit.

I found that these helmets run large in half helmets . I own full face LS2 and this one also . Now the full face seemed to run true to size but the half helmets seem to run larger . I usually wear a medium helmet to accommodate a turtle fur underneath , but in this helmet the medium was way too loose for me even with the turtle fur underneath , So I had to go to a small . Again everyone's head is a bit different so sizing may vary per individual . In my case the medium was one size too large and I downsized to a small which still is roomy even with the turtle fur underneath . I probably could have went with the X-Small but didn't feel like returning it again to change sizes again . Hope this helps . I found that these helmets run large in half helmets .

It depends on how big your 8 yr old's head is. There's a sizing guide available - you'll need a cloth tape measure to measure around the head/face of the person you're sizing.

The person I bought them for has a very average size head. They fit him perfectly. I have a smaller head and they fit well but not snug.
