Daytona Skull Cap Helmet in Silver Metallic, the Smallest DOT Half Helmet Ever Made
If you have been searching for a DOT half helmet that does not make you look like a mushroom, this is the one riders keep coming back to. The Daytona D.O.T Silver Metallic Cap Helmet is a genuine Daytona Helmets Slim Line design, a sleek contoured shell that hugs your head and keeps that low profile skull cap look while still meeting and exceeding federal safety standards.
Why Riders Choose Daytona Helmets
Daytona Helmets is a true American motorcycle helmet brand trusted by cruiser and Harley riders for decades. Every lid in this line meets and exceeds DOT standard FMVSS 218, so you get real certified protection in the smallest DOT approved package on the market. The glittering silver metallic paint is sealed under a clear lacquer finish and set off by nickel plated rolled tubular steel rivets, craftsmanship you can see up close.
The Low Profile Fit Daytona Is Famous For
Most half helmets use one oversized shell for every head. Daytona builds this helmet in 3 different shell sizes, which is why it sits so close to your head and why it earned the title of the smallest DOT half shell helmet ever made. Sizes run from 3XS to 4XL and fit true to size with a slim profile. Measure around your head just above the eyebrows and use the size chart below to lock in your fit.
Comfort Built In
The custom formed interior is lined with moisture wicking fabric that keeps your head cooler and drier mile after mile. The nylon Y strap retention system has a sliding adjuster for a dialed in fit, and the quick release lock opens with one finger so you never fight your chin strap at the gas station.
