Giro Revolver Helmet
Description
Designed to protect your head from hard-hitting impacts, the Giro Revolver Helmet is ready for any activity on snow. Offered in unisex sizing, this Giro helmet for men and women is constructed using a durable hard plastic shell that is laminated to an EPS hard foam liner. It is certified to meet CE EN 1077 standards and comes with a Fit Kit padding system so you can customize the fit for a perfectly snug ride on your dome. The interior subliner of this ski helmet is a thin layer of cushioning EVA foam covered in fabric that lines the inside of the helmet and works to alleviate pressure points. Six Super Cool vents are lined with mesh and designed to maximize airflow to keep your head cool and comfy and a special Stack Vent in the brim lines up with your top goggle vent to keep your lens fog free during a hike or while standing in lift lines. Not only is this snowboarding helmet ultra comfy, it has a low profile, mushroom-head-free fit that looks great and it is compatible with Giro TuneUps systems (not included) to keep your playlist pumping in the park.

Good Helmet
I bought one for myself and girlfriend. We both used them this past weekend and they worked great. Overall the helmet is perfect. Two things I would bring to your attention: 1) I was in between a M and a LG (per the measuring requirements listed on this sight) and I went with a LG. It works, but for snugger fit I would go with a M. 2) The Goggles sometime slide up when you position them on the front of the helmet.
I would definitely recommend to a friend. Good quality and great price.

very nice helmet. Fits perfectly and light. I wore it for the first time yesterday and I really liked it. It feels comfortable around the head and I like the design.

Great noggin protection!
This is my second Revolver purchase. The helmet is comfortble and does what it's supposed to do when you wreck. I have taken head shots that shattered my goggles and chipped teeth but this helmet has taken the impact and saved me from a sure concussion. For the price you can't do better.

Great buy!
We bought the small for my 3 yr old (his head is average size). It was a good deal, it fits perfectly and has removable pads to grow with him. He's comfortable and safe for a day of skiing. It's also really cute!

GIRO Revolver Helmet
Nice design with quality construction. Sizing was a bit larger than the head measurement indicated (head measurement indicated size Large but a Medium probably would have been better). The helmet came with plenty of extra pads to customize the fit.

Great Helmet!
I've used this helmet a couple times now, and it's very comfortable. My ears tend to get a little hot though (I have a snug fit). Can't go wrong at this price though!

Good Buy from Altrec
We purchased this helmet for our grandson who is into snow and bicycle sports. It is well constructed and certainly adds to his safety. We inspected the helmet at a local sports store, and then shopped it with this company. Significant savings for exactly the same article. Thanks

Giro helmets come in lots of sizes, so chances are there's one that's going to fit you. A helmet that fits correctly should feel snug, with just a little room between your head and the sweat absorbent headband and pads.
Once you have a helmet that's the right size and has been properly adjusted you can customize the fit with the adhesive-backed sizing pads. Stick them to the helmet shell so that when you put the helmet on, it feels snug but not too tight.
You've no doubt noticed the straps hanging off your helmet. As pretty as they are, they're not there for decoration. If your straps aren't adjusted right, your helmet won't stay on properly. So pay attention. The first step is to make sure the helmet is on your head correctly. That means the front should be level with the back. If the front is too low, you won't be able to see hazards like wayward puppies and cliff edges. If the front is too high, you may look awfully rakish, but your helmet will not protect the front part of your head in a wreck. Once you've got your helmet on right, what keeps it there? No, it's not 'gravity' you smart aleck. The correct answer is, of course, the straps, which have been threaded through the helmet kind of like a shoelace. And just like a shoelace, before you adjust the fit, you want the two sides to be even. If your straps aren't even, tug on whichever of the rear straps is shorter until they are.
Next you'll need to check the position of the Tri Loc strap guides. You want both the front and rear straps to be snug when your helmet sits level on your head with the Tri Loc strap guides positioned just below your ears. To adjust the length of the straps open the Tri Loc and slide whichever strap needs adjustment up or down until it is in the correct position. Any slack in the strap must be pulled through the chin buckle. Now snap the Tri Loc closed and adjust the other side. The loose ends of the straps must be passed through the rubber "O" ring.
Close the chin buckle and tighten the combined straps until your helmet fits snugly. How snugly? You should be able to open your mouth, but only enough to take in carbohydrates. Here's a good test to see if your straps are adjusted right. Try and pull the helmet off from both the front and back. This is important. Grab the helmet with both hands and pull hard. If it can be tipped forward, you need to tighten the back straps. If it can be tipped backward, you need to tighten the front straps. If you want your helmet to stay on in an accident, you need to make sure it won't come off in your living room. If you cannot adjust the helmet so it cannot be removed with the straps fastened or so it does not move excessively, DO NOT USE THE HELMET. Replace it with a different size or a different model.
HOW TO [sel-ect ]A SIZE
A helmet that fits well offers the best protection and the most comfort. That's why Giro has invested so much in the art and science of helmet fit. Our proprietary sizing system was created using data collected by the International Standards Organization (ISO) on head shapes and sizes of the worldwide population. Most Giro adult helmets are available in 3 unique shell sizes (XXS/XS, S/M and L/XL). Our children's and youth helmets are available in 2 shell sizes (XS/S and M/L).
Follow these directions to determine which size is right for you:
- Wrap a tape measure around your head just above your ears.
- Compare this measurement (in inches or centimeters) to the sizing chart for the model you have selected.
- Follow all fit and adjustment instructions in the Giro Owner's Manual.
If you can't adjust the helmet to meet these requirements, exchange it for a different size or model.
GIRO: FIT FOR WOMEN
Fit has always been a hallmark feature of Giro helmets. And our helmets have always been designed to fit both Men and Women. Why do Giro helmets fit better? The difference is in the head-form. Our helmets are built on proprietary head-forms using data collected by the International Standards Organization (ISO) on head shapes and sizes of the worldwide population. ISO data showed that unlike feet, there is no consistent difference between the head shapes of men and women. The only consistent difference is one of size: women's heads are generally smaller than men's. For this reason, all of Giro's adult helmets are offered in 3 unique shell sizes (most of our competitors only offer 2). By building our helmets in more shell sizes, we fit smaller heads more comfortably and precisely.
Our Roc Loc 2 and Roc Loc 3 fit systems are ponytail compatible for long hairs of either gender.
