Batting and Catcher's Helmet Sizing Chart To find a player's correct head size, measure the circumference of the head just above the ears and refer to the chart below for accurate sizing Size Hat Size Head Circumference Extra Small 6 3/8"-6 1/2" 20"-20 1/2" Small 6 5/8" - 6 3/4" 20 3/4" - 21 1/4" Medium 6 7/8" - 7" 21 1/2" - 22" Large 7 1/8" - 7 1/4" 22 1/4" - 22 3/4" X Large 7 3/8" - 7 1/2" 23" - 23 1/2" 2X Large 7 5/8" - 7 3/4" 23 3/4" - 24 1/4" For catcher's gear The Batter's Box recommends you use the age chart below.  It usually is more effecient than trying to measure your chest or shins.  The description for all catcher's gear we list will have either T-Ball, Youth, Intermediate or Adult.  Age recomendations for Catcher's Gear: T-Ball = ages 4 - 9 Youth = ages 9 - 12 Intermediate  = 12 - 16 Adult = 15 and up Chest Protector Sizing For chest size measure from top of breast plate or sternum (the bone under the chin) to the waist or belt buckle area to give length required for proper fit and match to size given in the description. Leg Guard (Shin Guard) Sizing* For leg guard size, measure from center of the kneecap to bottom of shin  and match to size given in the description. General Rule of Thumb:  Adult sizes are basically designed for catcher's 15 years old and up and 5' 7" and taller.  And a note to youngsters and new catchers: Protective gear takes some getting used to.  It needs to be broken in like a good glove before it feels comfortable.  If your measurement does not comes out right, go by the age recommendation.  If you need more help, please call us at 1-843-477-1874.  Back to Catcher's Gear Back to Batting Helmets
