Ballistic Helmet Shell Cuts

Made in US Helmet Shell CutsThere are three shell cuts to choose from when choosing your ballistic helmet. The regular cut offers the most protective area by fully covering your ears but is the least compatible with headsets and hearing protection devices. The mid cut offers a balance while the high cut offers the greatest compatibility with communications gear.
