Daytona Skull Cap Helmet in Red Metallic, the Smallest DOT Half Helmet Made
If you have been searching for a daytona skull cap helmet that gives you real protection without the mushroom head look, this is the one riders keep coming back to. The Daytona D.O.T Red Metallic Cap Helmet is a genuine DOT half helmet built by Daytona Helmets, a true American helmet brand trusted by cruiser riders for decades. The Slim Line shell is the smallest DOT approved half shell ever made, so it hugs your head with a clean low profile instead of sitting on top of it.
Why Riders Choose Daytona
Daytona Helmets builds lids that meet and exceed D.O.T. safety standard FMVSS 218, then refines the fit until the helmet disappears on your head. Three separate shell sizes mean a 2XS rider and a 4XL rider each get a proportionate fit. The deep red metallic paint is sealed under a clear lacquer finish and set off by nickel plated rolled tubular steel rivets, so it looks as sharp rolling past a diner window as it does in the driveway.
Comfort Built for Long Miles
Inside you get a custom formed interior with moisture wicking fabric that pulls sweat away and keeps your head cooler on hot rides. The nylon Y strap retention system has a sliding adjuster for a dialed in fit, and the quick release lock opens with one finger when you pull up to the bar. A removable gloss black mini scoop visor snaps on for sun control and snaps off for the clean shell look.
Fit and Sizing
Daytona helmets run true to size with a famously slim profile. Measure around your head about one inch above the eyebrows and match your measurement to the size chart below. If you land between sizes, most riders prefer the snugger fit since the liner breaks in with wear. Sizes run from 2XS through 4XL.
