THE ROLE OF HEAD SHAPE IN FITTING AN ARAI® HELMET
The relationship between length and width – are as important as head size in properly fitting a helmet. Arai® now offers three interior fit shapes for full-face helmets, based on the following:

“Long Oval”, The traditional Arai® fit — in which the head length is distinctly narrow side-to-side, combined with a longer front to back measurement. Arai’s® Long Oval shell shape is currently available in the Profile series.

“Round Oval”, The transitional fit — in which the head is distinctly rounder, length and width being almost even. These shapes are typically very easy to see when you are looking straight at the mirror, as well as from the profile. Arai’s® Round Oval shell shape is currently available in the Quantum series. (Fit well for most people)

"Relaxed Round-Oval", Similar to "Round Oval" but not as pronounced. Arai’s® Relaxed round-oval shell shape is currently available in the RX-7 series (Fit well for most people)

“Intermediate Oval”, The bridge fit — a round shape, but with considerably more forehead length in it. This shape “bridges” the gap between the two previous shapes. Arai’s® Intermediate, Oval shell shape is currently available in the Vector series.

Arai’s® Motocross and offroad helmets as well as our three-quarter open-face helmet lines do not share the multiple-fit packages. These are built on a single-fit package that runs in the middle of the shape range.
