    I had a similar problem with my helmet. Took one too small as at the shop it felt tight enough not to move on my head but after an hour's riding I felt my brow and temples would be about to implode. After the second washing of the interior padding/lining, the issue seems to have resolved itself. Either the padding shrunk or my head got smaller. ??
