Abstract
A helmet for protecting the head of a wearer includes a helmet body including an outer shell, and a strap for coupling the helmet to the head, the strap being secured to the helmet body. A piece of material is coupled to the helmet body proximate an edge surface of the helmet body and arranged to lie between the helmet body and the head of the wearer. A means is provided for attaching a portion of the strap to the piece of material at an attachment point distant from the edge surface, such that the strap adjacent the surface edge is pulled towards the head of the wearer. The piece of material is flexible, thereby allowing the attachment point to move relative to the helmet body.
