Not sure as I sold it last year for an Ops-Core.
Not sure as I sold it last year for an Ops-Core.
Yes, I know, a little late to the party, but hopeful anyway.
Looking for advice:
I just sold my size M/L Ops Core High Cut Ballistic because it was a little too small. I mean I could wear it, but not comfortably and definitely not for an extended period. I have a MSA ACH size Large that fits (in my opinion) perfect. My melon is 24". I am leaning towards the Airframe size Large, but also considering the Team Wendy Exfil ballistic in size 2. I hate helmets that are too large and "weeble wobble" (that coupled with a big head complex anyway) and would almost rather have one that caused fainting from a lack of circulation than one that is too big.
Does anyone have a recommendation on which one may fit a 24" head better than the other. I guess I am looking for one that fits like a size Large MSA ACH or just a little bigger than a M/L OPS Core?
I really have no idea. I haven't worn anything but a stretchy fitted hat in awhile. I'm guessing it would be a good idea to find out?

7 5/8 off the shelf - ubiquitous was a great choice btw.

ok, i have a 7 1/4 hat size and i wear a s/m crye airframe. I would say the fit is perfect for me. no excess pressure from pads. no excess movement from looseness. even without straps buckled it is a perfect fit and doesn't move under shaking.

judging by this chart here you are two sizes larger for an mlb cap. (hopefully you actually went to the store and tried a hat on, sometimes a tape measure doesn't tell the whole story)
http://tnvc.com/shop/crye-precision-...helmet/Medium: (20.5″ – 22.5″), Large: (22.5″ – 24.5″), XL: (24.5″ +)
tnvc gives the following for sizing.
it looks like you're in the middle of the size range for large.

Thanks man. I appreciate you taking the time to look that up. Yes, I tried on about 10 of em'...

I had weeble wobble with my Airframe. I think it all depends on your head shape but I didn't play around with the pad config too much as the stock one was the most comfortable for me.
I like the worm dial system but haven't tried the TW solution (BOA). Have you considered another Ops-Core?
So, what's the difference between the OpsCore and the Maritime? Lighter materials with the same threat level ratings?
