Description
Hi Density (HD) Ice Halo for figure skaters, curlers and anyone wanting extra head protection while enjoying the outdoors.
The Halo HD is the sleekest, slimmest, coolest Halo! The self adjusting interior high density foam padding actually conforms to the head shape - you will forget you are wearing it! No Velcro closure, slips right on like a ballcap.
Note, the Halo we sell does not have the big logo on the back.

Sizing instructions for the Ice Halo HD
To measure head circumference, you’ll need a soft measuring tape (like a tailor’s tape). Here’s how to do it:
-
Position the tape
-
Place the tape just above the eyebrows.
-
Wrap it around the widest part of the head, passing above the ears and around the back of the head where it sticks out the most (the occipital bone).
-
-
Keep it snug but not tight
-
The tape should lie flat against the skin or hair, without compressing it.
-
-
Read the measurement
-
Make sure the tape is level all the way around.
-
Record the number where the tape meets itself, in centimeters or inches.
-
-
Check twice
-
For accuracy, measure two or three times and take the largest consistent number.
-
Use the chart below for the correct sizing - bearing in mind there is a 1.5" variance with the internal elastic material.
If you are on the border of two sizes, order the larger size.
Sizing Chart for the Halo Hi Density
Sizes are based on head circumference.
- Small - fits 19.5 up to 21 inches (49.5 to 53.5 cm)
- Medium - fits 21.5 up to 23 inches (53.5 to 58.5 cm)
- Large - fits 23 up to 24.5 inches (58.5 to 62 cm)
How to wear the Ice Halo HD
Put the Halo HD on the same way a ballcap is worn – start at the back, slide it over the head to the middle of the forehead, making sure the back is covering the widest part of the back of the head and the halo ‘bump’ is pointing up, not down. It should rest just above the tips of the ears, not covering or sitting on them. If it feels snug when first put on or at any point during use, gently tug at the two points of the Halo HD just above the eyebrows and release again. This will adjust the inner workings to fit properly once more.
Washing instruction for the Halo HD
The Halo HD should be hand washed in lukewarm water and air dried. Do not use fabric softener.
The foam is wrapped in a 95% cotton, 5% Spandex fabric.
Ice Halo Impact Safety Testing - Canadian Standards Association Approved!
Ice Halo Products are tested in one of the top impact testing facilities in the world, using the Hockey Helmet Standard (CSA Z262.1-09 (April 2009) Annex A, Impact Drop Testing). Ice Halo products pass the standard requirements for front, side and back impact. Ice Halo products out-rank the lesser valued ones on the market every time!
Ice Halo products are designed to reduce the risks of impact to head during participation in non-contact sports and activities. They cannot and do not prevent all risk of head injuries. Participation in curling, figure skating and other sports exposes the participant to the risk of injuries, and participation in such sports implies acceptance of such risk.
Made in Canada. Hooray!
