Fits great
I bought this helmet for my son and it fit perfect. He loves it especially with all the padding inside. All the other helmets he tried on didn’t fit too good
Helmet that saved the season
Ordered this helmet for my nephew who is in GA! With the pandemic this year he had to get his own helmet in order to play. Having just moved there from Texas finding one was hard. Ordered a white helmet to match the teams color. Also had to order a facemask to match. Came quick and was an absolute perfect fit. He said the fit was better than the temp Riddell helmet his coach was letting him use. Got this as it rates high on the VT helmet list. Nephew it barely feels like he is wearing anything on his head. Will definitely look to Xenith again if he or any other player I know needs a helmet.

Tried one on and love it
Tried one on at a store and fit better than any helmet I've ever worn. Only problem is they have been out of stock for a looooooong time and I just want to be able to purchase one.....

Fits great and works awesome
I got this helmet last year and it was so easy to find my teams colors and I didn’t even feel like I was wearing anything. But when I got hit I was expecting it to hurt but I didn’t feel a thing

Community Q&A
- Is the Xenith X2E+ a good youth football helmet?
- Yes, it's highly recommended for its 5-star safety rating, comfortable adaptive fit, and lightweight design.

- The integrated chin strap can break and requires a full helmet swap; ear pieces may cut ears if not fitted properly.
Compared To
vs Schutt Vengeance A3+
The X2E+ uses adaptive shock absorbers and a floating suspension, while the Schutt uses TPU cushioning and an inflatable liner. Personal fit preference is key.
vs Riddell
Riddell is preferred by some for tradition and fit variety, but Xenith is favored for easier, quicker fit, especially for odd-shaped heads.

Helmet choice discussion with mixed experiences on Xenith X2E+
We have Xenith X2E+ for our youth team. Parents love the fit and safety... but we had issues with the ear pieces cutting ears and kids not tightening chin strap enough.

Xenith X2E+ is praised as a lighter youth helmet with adaptive fit.
Xenith X2E+ youth is one of the lightest 5-star helmets. My 9 year old says it’s way more comfortable than his old Schutt.

Comprehensive helmet buying guide mentions Xenith X2E+ pros and cons.
Xenith X2E+ is great for hard-to-fit heads, but the integrated chin strap means if it breaks, you need a whole new helmet. We keep one as a backup because it adjusts so fast.
