This review is from: K2 Jr. Varsity Boys Helmet (Sports)
I bought this helmet for my 8 year old cousin for his birthday. The helmet fit really well due to the dial adjuster on the back. Before I bought the helmet I measured the circumference of his head and compared it to the size chart on k2's website. The k2 size chart can be a little confusing because they only listed children's ski helmet sizes, but the bike and ski helmet sizes are the same.
It would be good if the helmet came with a second set of thinner foam padding so it would last a bit longer as he grows, but this is not really an expensive helmet and I didn't expect it to come with any. So, functionally it is a great helmet, it looks nice, and is comfortable enough that he doesn't even try to get away with not wearing it. Best thing is he also got another bike helmet as a present with a dinosaur face protruding from the front (admittedly pretty awesome), but he still wears this one instead.
