How to Measure
- Use a soft, flexible measuring tape (not a rigid ruler).
- Wrap it around the middle of the neck — roughly where the Q-Collar will sit.
- Pull the tape snug, with zero slack between the tape and the neck, but not tight enough to feel restrictive.
- Note the measurement in inches or centimetres and match it to the chart below.

Fit Tips
- A properly fitted Q-Collar should feel snug but not restrictive — you should be able to breathe, swallow, and turn your head comfortably.
- It's normal for the fit to feel slightly firm in the first practice or two. Most athletes report they stop noticing it after that adjustment period.
- If it feels too tight, causes pain, restricts breathing, or leaves marks that don't fade quickly after removal, size up or contact us for guidance.
- The Q-Collar should sit below the helmet and above the shoulder pads, without interference from mouthguards or other gear.
