Abstract
An adjustable helmet includes a first shell, a second shell, and a size adjustment mechanism. The first shell includes a first side portion and a second side portion. The second shell is positioned between the first side portion and the second side portion. The first side portion and the second side portion of the first shell (a) at least partially overlap the second shell and (b) are laterally flexible with respect to one another to facilitate adjusting a size of the first shell between a minimum size and a maximum size. The size adjustment mechanism includes a tensioner extending between the first side portion and the second side portion. The size adjustment mechanism facilitates ratchet-less and infinite adjustment of the size of the first shell between the minimum size and the maximum size without requiring user manipulation of the size adjustment mechanism.
