Comfort strips are available to help achieve a fit that offers maximum comfort and stability for smaller and in-between head sizes and shapes. Gath Convertible Helmets are fitted with a unique, soft foam peel-and-stick comfort strip to provide a secure, comfortable fit. Choose a helmet size and comfort strip combination that provides a snug fit. With the chinstrap firmly tightened, test for movement. The helmet must not be loose. When fitting, allow a little time for the soft foam comfort strip to compress, then determine if the fit is firm with no uncomfortable pressure points. The helmet you choose should fit firmly enough to prevent ease of movement while still remaining comfortable. If you are unable to obtain the correct fit, contact your local distributor regarding special fitting kits and techniques. Gath foam comfort strips are held to the helmet liner by pressure sensitive tape. If the comfort strip is removed or becomes loose, it can be re-attached using super-glue. Simply glue between the outside edge of the comfort strip and helmet liner comfort strip trench. The location and thickness of comfort strips can be varied to accommodate head shape. For a “long” head, use thicker strips on the sides and thinner strips on the front & back. For a “round” head, use thicker strips in the front and/or back, and thinner strips on the sides.
