It is important to know that we sell EUROPEAN sizes, on the internet you often see Arai helmets for sale at a lower rate, these are usually Arai helmets with JAPANESE sizes. The biggest difference is in the inside of the helmet a European has an oval head in the length and a Japanese has an oval head in the width. So when buying a helmet make sure that you follow the correct European dimensions.

If you have doubts about a certain 'authenticity' of an Arai helmet, please contact us as an importer within the BELUX for the Arai motorsport and karting products and we will be happy to help you.
