Comments about C.A.M.P. USA Armour Lady Climbing Helmet - Women's:
When my fiance and I decided to purchase climbing helmets, he decided on the CAMP USA Armour men's helmet. It looked like a good helmet, so I decided, being a woman, that I would get the women's version. When our order arrived, mine was too small for my head, while his fit me perfectly. I looked up the specs online and found that the women's helmet fits head sizes 54-57 cm, while the men's helmet fits head sizes 54-60 cm. Yes, that's right: the women's helmet fits a subset of the men's sizes, without going any smaller, and did NOT fit me, although I don't think I have an unusally large head for a woman. On top of that, looking at the two helmets it seems that the interior part that fits around your head is about the same size for both helmets, but the hard shell itself is smaller. With the women's helmet adjusted as big as it goes, the back strap actually seems to sit somewhat outside the shell part of the helmet. Overall, I see no advantage to purchasing this helmet over the men's version. The only difference is that it will fit fewer people.
