How does a hockey helmet fit?

A well-sized helmet fits snug enough so that it doesn’t shift during play, but not so tightly that it pinches or presses uncomfortably. Helmets are made in sizes XS–XL, regardless of the player’s age. To find the right helmet size, measure your head circumference about ½”–1” above your eyebrows, and then refer to a size chart; see our guidelines on how to fit a hockey helmet.

How do I attach a visor to a hockey helmet?

They’re all a little different, but the installation is always designed to be logical. Search your model and you’re likely to find a video tutorial. One good tip is not to seat any of the screws all the way until you have the visor situated exactly how you want it—then tighten them all down. We offer detailed instructions for attaching visors and cages in our How to Fit a Hockey Helmet guide.

Can I wear glasses with a hockey helmet?

Yes, but you’ll want to select the glasses and the helmet carefully. Choose a sturdy pair of glasses with full-rim frames. Some players prefer sports goggles with shatterproof polycarbonate lenses. Try on helmets while wearing your glasses or goggles to evaluate the fit, and use no-fog spray on the lenses.
