I tried on several different brands/models and this brand/model fit like me like a glove. I really like the soft back fastener and boa system. It’s not hard plastic like several others and it doesn’t echo in the helmet when you tighten it. Great helmet and the travel bag that comes with it is a bonus!!

FF3 is better than FF2
My FF2 helmet always pushed my Wildcat glasses down my nose. The FF3 does not do this and fits so much better. Comfortable, stylish, safe. Smith helmets are my go to for biking and skiing.

Forefront 3 Mips
Boa design takes getting used to when putting the helmet on, but fit is terrific and easily adjustable
