The largest game-worn helmets, heavily padded helmets, or unusually large helmet configurations may not fit.
Before ordering, measure the complete helmet—including the face mask, padding, and attached equipment—and compare your measurements with the interior dimensions above. We recommend leaving a small amount of clearance for easier placement and removal.
How to Measure Your Football Helmet Before Ordering
To determine whether your helmet will fit:
Measure the maximum length of the helmet.
Measure the maximum depth.
Measure the maximum height, including padding and attached equipment.
Compare your measurements with the interior dimensions of the display case.
Leave a small amount of additional clearance for placing and removing the helmet.
Remember that football helmet dimensions vary by manufacturer, model, shell size, padding, face mask, and other equipment.
If your helmet is unusually large, heavily padded, vintage, or game-worn, we recommend confirming the measurements before ordering.

Our premium clear acrylic provides good UV protection to help reduce yellowing, discoloration, and color fading while also protecting your football helmet from dust, fingerprints, spills, and everyday handling.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 58 reviews.
Easy to assemble, and it looks great! Only complaint is the tops of some of the yellow risers had scratches, so you can see silver if you happen to look closely at the risers instead of keeping your eyes on the helmet.
Was so pleased with the first case I ordered..I got another one. I used to prefer real glass over acrylic..but after seeing the workmanship and quality of these cases I will always order from here in the future.. absolutely worth the money spent!
My signed helmet turned out awesome as expected in the case. Additionally, when I lost a piece of the case during a recent home move, the owner went out of his way to mail me a new piece without charge. I highly recommend this company both for the product and customer service.
I've bought several display cases over the years and this by far exceeds them all in every way! Extremely nice quality and workmanship...and as a veteran myself it's nice to support another veteran who is producing such a great product that's being made in the USA!..puts the Chinese made products to shame!.. definitely will always purchase from here in the future!!
I am extremely happy with my display case it came in great condition and very easy to put together. Thank you Mr.Johnson for all your help and a great first impression I will be back to shop in the near future👍🏽
Store owner replied:
Wonderful, thanks so much. The red risers look awesome with the red Giants helmet. I'm a Skins / Commanders fan myself but gotta give you props!! Thanks for being one of our great customers!!
Ordered 6 full size football helmet display cases. Prompt shipping. Amazing product, high quality and easy to assemble. Had a couple issues with a few parts like 1 or 2 risers that were slightly chipped. Mo immediately shipped replacement parts free of charge. Excellent customer service!
Very fast and professional stayed in contact with with me though the whole process. The case is top quality and makes my helmet really pop and look great will definitely buy more one if the best companies I ever felt with.
Store owner replied:
Thank you, helmet with the silver risers looks awesome!
My husband is a die hard Detroit Red Wings fan. He acquired this fully autographed helmet a few years back but it was not protected. He looked around at craft store displays but nothing was quite right. I found your website and immediately knew I had found the right place. I had a couple of questions and was pleasantly surprised by a phone call from the owner himself to discuss what would be best. The risers are the right shade of Red Wing red, too.
The fact this is a Veteran owned, American business is a plus for me, as I am the daughter of an Airman, Crew Chief for a F-100 Super Sabre. Yes, that goes way back.
You have a beautiful product, excellent customer service. I will be back as my husband is continuously adding to his collection. Thanks, again!
Store owner replied:
Thanks and wow, that looks awesome with the contrast between the black helmet and white base. Looking forward to you getting more helmets (and cases) :)

Stare at this every day… couldn’t be any happier !
Love it!. I have several different sports helmets that I wanted to display and received one of these cases as a gift. I loved it so much I am getting a Better Display Case for all my stuff now. Have 5 and counting.
Great cases!. I ordered two cases from this vendor. One for a hockey skate and one for a helmet. They arrived in perfect condition due to the excellent packaging. The cases themselves are amazing. Extremely clear and well crafted. Cannot express how satisfied I am. The owner and packager signed the shipping/info docs. A very nice, personal touch. Will purchase again and so should you. Now I just need a hockey stick display case!
Love My Display Case!. I am so happy with my display case purchase. My Green Bay Packer helmet is signed by # 17 Davante Adams, and I wanted to make sure it was protected from my dog and anything else that could damage it. This display case is beautiful and protects my investment. I bought another Green Bay Packer helmet, this time, signed by # 87 Jordy Nelson. I can't wait to order another display case, so both of my helmets can be displayed together. Thanks so much for this great product!
Thank you so so very much.. Good Morning Guys,
Received the display with no problems and I am very happy with it, extremely excited about the way it showcases the gift it self and the overall look is amazing, it's funny how one thing can dramatically change the way something looks...in a way it refines in a deluxe kind of way..its no longer just a helmet...it has become a showpiece.
Thank you so so very much.
Warm Regards and Happy Holidays,
Suad
