Thanks for the information Nates.

I have one more question about sizing, on the reviews I read the size is not easy to determine. Some people say they bought what they thought was the size as per the chart but it finished been too small. In your case the measurement you toke was right with the size proposed in the chart?

I measure 22.75 inches. As per the chart I need a Small but the truth is I would rather think I would be Medium because I don't have a tinny head not really big but... Could you compare the measure in your case ?

Thanks

Rosie

Rosie,

The short story is my head measured 28 inches around or 14 inches half-way and the Large non-adjustable fits me perfectly.

For the longer story, check your PMs.

Best regards, Nate

The Ultimate Chinstrap works!! It is the only thing that does, and I have tried most all of them including Papcap.
