What is the smallest head circumference this is recommended for? My son is right at 21 inches so trying to decided on youth size or this one.

I just tried my son's on my tiny 20" head and it fit perfectly w/ plenty of room for adjustment so this one should fit your son perfectly and will be able to grow with him.

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!

We've only used this one however last winter my son used it at 5 and it was fine. It's better to get one a little bigger that your son can grow into.

I went directly to the luckybums.com website for sizing information. They show the sizes and what they work out to in circumference measured in cm. There is even a cm to inches conversion chart if you don't have a metric tape measure. Measure your head (or your son's) and now you can match up the size. Easy! This form of "Showrooming" works well for amazon providers who don't give much relevant information on their products on the Amazon site.

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...

I haven't officially worn the hat yet, I've only put it on my head briefly when it first arrived. If my memory is correct, it felt a little big but would be OK to wear. I'm sure you're OK but i don't think it would work for your son. An option would be to wear a light weight knit hat under to help it fit him.....

I was wondering the same thing but if you visit their website, then it tells you how to measure their heads. I just measured my almost 9 year old sons head and he is a 21 1/2. Measure right above the eye brows. My son would be an xtra large youth.

I think small one is good for him. My son is 1,5 years old and I bought him both small and bigger ones. Big ones are too big, small ones are really good and I think will fit for a long time.

My daughter is 27" now, and she is at the very top level. I think if your son should be fine using this one depending on how fast he grows. I would hate for you to waste money because your son shot pass the 32" quickly.

My son has a small head so I had to get the youth. if he can fit the adult I would get the adult. Not sure there is much difference.

Most recommend 12 months and up, and up to 40 lbs. My daughter was 18 months and 21 lbs when we started using one - so weight-wise your daughter will be fine but the hard part might be finding a helmet that fits. We had to adjust the smallest one we could find even smaller for her (average size - 50% percentile) head. The 12 month age recommendation is probably for head/neck control - much like a forward facing car seat the main concern is safety in the event of an accident. The "seat" itself is more like a hammock or sling - just a piece of fabric - so if the child can't sit up properly the seat won't work well.

I would measure head, and get the largest size that will still fit. These helmets are awesome and to be able to adjust it with a turn off a knob, brilliant. That way your able to make it bigger as he grows.

I would recommend 21 or 22 inches. When i was looking for my boys i investigated sizes and i remember that for 5-8 normally thats the size used. Hope this helps

I would probably go with a larger one, my grandson is 14 months and he is extremely little (5% in the height category) this size fits him well.

If he is a larger kid then I would say this headgear would be fine, otherwise I would purchase a youth size if possible so that the head gear will have a more snug fit.

I bought this for my 3.4 year old and it fit him well. Although it fits a little loose, my 1.4 year old can also wear it without appearing too big. I would say overall age 1-4. Note: my kids are slight above average height and slightly below average weight. And in my opinion have small heads.

My head size is 21 inches and would also fit someone with 19 inches comfortable. Any head size small might feel loose especially if doing sports.

My son is 7 and I bought him the small. They have the head measurements for each size listed.
