Published in Helmet Fitting 1 min read

Fitting a Schutt helmet involves adjusting its components for a secure and comfortable fit. Based on the provided reference clip focusing on the Schutt F7 2.0, a key step involves adjusting the upper straps after routing them.

Adjusting Schutt Helmet Straps

Properly routing and adjusting the helmet straps is crucial for a good fit. The reference highlights the adjustment of the upper straps as part of this process.

Steps Mentioned in Reference:

  1. Route the Straps: Ensure the straps are routed correctly.
  2. Initial Tightness: Get the straps "nice and tight" initially.
  3. Adjust Upper Straps: Loosen or "let out a little bit on the uppers" to get the "upper set".

This adjustment ensures the helmet sits properly and is secure after the initial tightening of the strap system.

  • Note: While the reference specifically mentions adjusting upper straps, a complete helmet fitting typically involves checking overall snugness, position on the head, jaw pad fit, and chin strap adjustments. However, the provided clip focuses on the specific action of adjusting the upper straps.
