DescriptionThe whole story▼
Please note: sale to France is prohibited.
Achieving a correctly fitting helmet is a genuine safety matter — not just a comfort preference. The Shoei Cheek Pad Insert Set Soft (XPRO) Type-P gives X-SPR Pro owners a precise, manufacturer-engineered method of refining the fit in the lower facial area, ensuring the helmet retains its certified protective geometry against the face as intended.
Key Features
- Manufacturer-designed tuning inlays engineered specifically for the Shoei X-SPR Pro to maintain the helmet's certified fit characteristics
- Soft foam construction, approximately 2 mm thick, delivers a gentle increase in cheek contact without introducing uncomfortable pressure points
- Self-adhesive backing allows straightforward self-installation directly onto the reverse face of the existing cheek pad
- Supplied as a matched pair — one left, one right — for symmetrical or selective adjustment
- Maximum one insert per side limits overfitting and preserves the structural intent of the pad system
- Removable when no longer required, allowing the interior to be returned to its original configuration
Why Correct Cheek Fit Matters
A full-face helmet performs to its ECE certification only when the shell and interior padding maintain the designed contact with the rider's head and face. Excessive play in the cheek area can allow the helmet to rotate or shift under impact loads, reducing the effectiveness of the liner system. Shoei's Type-P inlay system addresses minor gaps in the lower facial zone without resorting to a full pad replacement, making it the correct first step when slight looseness or asymmetric pressure is detected.
Soft Variant — Comfort-Led Correction
The Soft version of the Type-P inlay uses a slightly more yielding foam compound compared to firmer alternatives in Shoei's range. This makes it well-suited to riders who need a modest increase in cheek contact — for instance, where there is a small amount of lateral movement during brisk cornering, or where cheek geometry is slightly asymmetric. Touring riders and everyday commuters who prioritise all-day wearability will find the Soft inlays deliver a meaningful improvement without the fatigue associated with overly firm padding.
