Schuberth FIA Approved Racing & Karting Helmets

Schuberth helmets are built for one thing: racing. Every Schuberth helmet from Fyshe is engineered for competitive motorsport and built to meet current FIA and SNELL homologation standards. The shell is formed from advanced carbon fibre and composite materials. The structure is tested for impact resistance and fire protection. The shape is refined for stability at speed. The result is a helmet that works with the driver and the machine. Lightweight construction reduces fatigue over long stints. Balanced aerodynamics limit lift and movement at high speed. The interior is shaped for a secure, even fit so that focus remains where it belongs. German engineering. Track-proven design. Kart helmets are built from the same racing DNA. The same commitment to protection. The same pursuit of stability and clarity at speed. For many drivers, karting is where the instinct is formed. Our karting range, including helmets and spares, brings professional-grade engineering into a more accessible arena, without losing the standard. Because racing doesn’t start in Formula cars. It starts at the first apex.

Why Choose a Schuberth Motorsport Helmet? The Fyshe Advantage

Schuberth is made for racers. 

We understand that equipment must support instinct, not interrupt it. A Schuberth helmet is relied upon every time the car leaves the pit lane. 

Protection is fundamental. Every helmet we supply meets current FIA and SNELL homologation standards required for international competition, including the SF4 ABP helmet which complies with the FIA 8860-2018/ABP standard required for F1. Each model is tested for impact absorption, penetration resistance and the racing helmets for flame protection. 

But certification alone is not enough. A driver must feel stable at speed. 

Schuberth shells are developed using wind-tunnel testing to manage airflow and reduce lift. Stability reduces neck strain, which in turn improves endurance and concentration. 

The interior is anatomically shaped and lined with flame-resistant materials. Padding can be adjusted or replaced to maintain a precise fit over time. Even pressure distribution prevents movement under braking and cornering loads. 

When protection, balance and fit align, the helmet becomes part of the driver. That is the invisible line. 

Helmet Fit, Sizing & Comfort: Your Definitive Guide 

Fit determines performance. A helmet that shifts under load cannot protect as designed. 


Measure accurately

Use a flexible tape measure. Measure around the widest part of your head, just above the eyebrows and ears. Record the measurement in centimetres. 

Consult the model-specific size chart

Each Schuberth model has its own sizing guide. Always match your measurement to the correct chart before selecting a size.

Expect a close fit

A new full-face FIA and SNELL helmet should feel firm and evenly snug. Your cheeks should be lightly compressed. There should be no gaps at the crown or sides.

Test stability

Secure the chin strap. Move the helmet from side to side and forward and back. Your scalp should move with the shell. If the helmet rotates independently, it is too large. 

Assess comfort over time

Wear the helmet for several minutes. It should remain secure without creating pressure points across the forehead or temples. Slight initial tightness is normal. Sharp discomfort is not.

If you are between sizes, get in touch for direct advice. Correct fit is essential for safety and compliance.
