This is a VERY well made ballistic helmet. With the daunting task of finding a reputable ballistic helmet that is quality and at a great price, this helmet fit the bill!! Paint is very well done, padding is very good, the ratcheting system make this helmet fit like a glove! Some say on the "heavy side" but I've wore it for 10-12 hours training and after about a hour I forgot it was even there. Super good quality compared to others on the market, plus the cost is very fair. Granted, it may not be a USA made shell, it is still manufactured in Europe (people may criticize me but that's MILES better quality than ALL helmets made in Asia and I'd say probably better than US made helmets seeing first hand the lack of quality and care put into manufacturing here now days.) Made in a state of the art facility using the same ballistic fabrics and bonding agents as the US military and the top name helmet manufacturers. Helmet is painted, assembled, packaged, and shipped in the USA! If you're on the fence about this helmet, take the leap. I'm VERY pleased! Granted, I haven't been or plan on being shot in the head, but the quality alone gives me a solid piece of mine if/when that were to ever happen.

Helmet is more comfortable then expected. Very pleased with the craftsman ship and finish.

If you are reading this I have no doubt you have also looked at all the "other" ballistic helmets on the market. I own two other ballistic ones that cost big bucks, and see absolutely no advantage to them over this one! Since they're all only Handgun rated (99%) why spend four figures on the "other" brands when you can have all you need in this awesome helmet! Right out of the box this lid offers fantastic comfort and adjustability. Sizing is spot on and there was no doubt I ordered the correct size based on their specs. The shroud perfectly fit my NODs without having to spend even more money. The rails seem larger than "other" brands which is awesome - I was able to add both Peltor Comtac Ear Pro and a Princeton Tec Light on these rails without difficulty. The best feature is the OCC/BOA Dial in the rear of the helmet strap. This thing can crank down the tension on your head flawlessly and by simply pulling it out, enables you to loosen it as well. Hands down best fitment out of all 3 ballistic Lids I have. I'll reach for this helmet before any of the other big name brands by far! Thanks for such fantastic customer service and shipping folks! Semper Fidelis!

Best helmet for the price and all that comes with it. Comfortable and well made.

Absolutely love this product. Extremely comfortable. Only negative I have is the helmet pad Velcro wouldn’t stick at all. But besides that I give 5 star!

Just recently recieved my shellback tactical ballistic helmet the other day. Shipping was fast which is greatly appreciated. I'm very impressed with the quality of this helmet. It's very comfortable and it's clear shellback has an awesome quality assurance team. I highly recommend this helmet and guarantee it will not disappoint. I a little butt hurt I never had a ballistic helmet this nice during my Army career. Job well done ShellbackTactical; you have gained a forever customer.
