Daytona Skull Cap Helmet: The Smallest DOT Half Helmet Ever Made
This is the Daytona skull cap helmet riders ask for by name: a genuine DOT half helmet with a hand drawn skull and cross bones graphic over a gloss black shell. Daytona Helmets is a true American helmet brand, and this lid meets and exceeds DOT FMVSS 218 safety standards while staying dramatically smaller than the bulky half helmets you see everywhere else.
No Mushroom Head. Ever.
Most half shell helmets sit on top of your head like an overturned bowl. Daytona solved that with its slim line design, a sleek contoured shell that hugs your head and eliminates the mushroom look. With three different shell sizes across the range, you get a proportionate fit whether you wear 2XS or 2XL. The custom formed interior molds to your head for real comfort on all day rides.
The Cross Bones Graphic
A snarling white and gray skull with crossed bones and red eyes, framed by ghost flame accents and sealed under a clear lacquer finish that protects the artwork from sun and weather. Each helmet is custom designed and may vary slightly in color or composition, which means no two lids are exactly alike.

Rider Questions, Answered
Is this Daytona skull cap DOT approved?
Yes. This is a genuine Daytona helmet that meets and exceeds DOT FMVSS 218 safety standards. It is a real certified half helmet, not a novelty lid.
Will this helmet give me a mushroom head look?
No. Daytona builds this skull cap on its slim line shell, the smallest DOT half shell helmet ever made. With three different shell sizes, the helmet hugs your head instead of ballooning over it.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure your head circumference just above your eyebrows and match it to the size chart on this page. Daytona helmets run true to size with a slim profile, and sizes from 2XS to 2XL cover almost every rider.
Does this helmet come with a visor or snaps?
This version is the clean smooth shell without snaps or a visor, which keeps the lowest profile and lets the skull and cross bones artwork stand out.
What is inside the shell?
A dual density EPS impact liner paired with moisture wicking fabric that keeps your head cooler and more comfortable on long rides.
How does the chin strap work?
It uses a nylon Y strap retention system with a sliding adjuster and a quick release lock. The one finger release lever makes it easy to unbuckle even with gloves on.
What comes in the box?
The helmet ships with a free head wrap and a cloth drawstring storage bag.
Will the skull graphic fade or scratch off?
The artwork is sealed under a clear lacquer finish that protects it from sun and weather. Each helmet is custom designed, so the graphic may vary slightly in color or composition.

You are covered by our 30 day guarantee. If the fit is not right, contact us and we will make it right.
