Daytona Skull Cap Helmet with Barbed Wire Heart Graphic, the Smallest DOT Half Helmet Ever Made
If you have been hunting for a DOT half helmet that does not turn your head into a mushroom, this is the one riders keep coming back to. The Daytona D.O.T Barbed Wire Heart Cap Helmet pairs the famously slim Daytona skull cap shell with a barbed wire heart graphic wrapped in purple roses and silver wing artwork, all sealed under a clear lacquer finish on a hi gloss black shell. It is a genuine certified helmet with real attitude, built for riders who want protection without the bulk.
Why Riders Choose Daytona
Daytona Helmets is a genuine US helmet brand that has been building DOT approved lids for decades. This skull cap meets and exceeds D.O.T. safety standard FMVSS 218, so you get real certified protection, not a novelty shell. The new slim line design offers a sleek contoured profile that hugs your head, and the custom formed interior delivers all day comfort on long rides.
A Proportionate Fit in Every Size
Most half helmets use one oversized shell and stuff it with padding. Daytona molds three different shell sizes, so a small head gets a genuinely small helmet. That is how this became the smallest DOT half shell helmet ever made. Daytona helmets run true to size with a slim profile. Measure around the widest part of your head just above the eyebrows and match it to the chart below, with sizes from 2XS to 2XL.

Rider Questions, Answered
Is this helmet DOT approved?
Yes. This is a genuine Daytona helmet that meets and exceeds D.O.T. safety standard FMVSS 218. It is a real certified half helmet, not a novelty lid.
Will it give me the mushroom head look?
No. This is Daytona's slim line skull cap, the smallest DOT approved half shell helmet ever made. The contoured shell hugs your head for a low profile look.
How do I pick my size?
Daytona helmets run true to size with a slim profile. Measure around the widest part of your head just above the eyebrows and match it to the size chart in the description. Sizes run from 2XS to 2XL.
Why does Daytona use three different shell sizes?
Instead of one big shell padded down, Daytona molds three separate shell sizes so smaller heads get a genuinely smaller helmet and a proportionate fit.
Does this helmet come with a visor?
No. The Barbed Wire Heart graphic version comes without snaps and without a visor for a clean uninterrupted look at the graphic.
What comes in the box?
Your helmet arrives with a free head wrap and a cloth drawstring storage bag.
Will my head get hot and sweaty?
The interior uses a moisture wicking fabric liner that pulls sweat away and keeps your head cooler and more comfortable on long summer rides.
How does the chin strap work?
It uses a nylon Y strap retention system with a sliding adjuster and a quick release lock. One finger on the release lever and it pops open.
Is the graphic a sticker that will peel?
No. The barbed wire heart, roses and wing artwork is finished under a clear lacquer coat, so the graphic is sealed and protected.
What if it does not fit or I change my mind?
You are covered by our 30 day money back guarantee. If the fit is not right, exchange the size or send it back for a full refund.
