Im looking at buying a Ops Core Fast high Cut XP but cant figure out what size I need.
http://www.ops-core.com/productFH.cfm?Product_ID=100&Category_ID=20&

They list size ranges for M, L, Xl and XXL
Then the sizes to buy are offered in S/M, M/L and L/XL

http://tnvc.com/shop/ops-core-fast-ballistic-high-cut-helmet-xp/
And then TNVC offers a whole different list of sizes for the same helmet.


FWIW I currently wear a size Large ACH
Head Circumference = 26"
Hat Size = 7 - 3/8
Chin Strap = 26

Also, I will be using Team Wendy Epic Air Pads and Team Wendy Cam-Fit Straps

I no longer have a fast helmet, and I never had a maritime version. My experience is they are on the larger side. I have the long skinny head in their Bert and Ernie description and had a S/M helmet with a L/XL chin strap. The weirdest part is that the non-OCC-Dial chin strap I am a M/L. I would highly recommend taking all the measurements and emailing them to Ops-Core, they are a great company and will get back to you.

I had an issue with a helmet back in 2009 and they paid for shipping it, fixed it, and shipped it right back to me in under a week.

^this.  Unfortunately, when I ordered mine, I didn't think to do this and instead ordered two base jump helmets in two different sizes so I could return the one that didn't fit.  The retailer I purchased from said this wouldn't be an issue since there was no dealer within 300+ miles of me that I could try them on at.

I eventually ordered a fast ballistic and got the size right the first time because of my trial and error I went though lol

I'd have to remeasure.  I was right in between a M/L and L/XL.  I ended up going with M/L.
