CHILDREN'S COLLECTION
Kids' Motocross Gear: Fox Helmets, Kits, Boots & Protection
The children's collection at Foxracing.si brings together motocross gear made specifically for young riders — from first laps on a 50cc bike to junior racing. Here you will find kids' helmets and goggles, jerseys and pants, gloves, boots and body protection in youth sizing, all from Fox. It is the place to kit out a child who rides motocross, enduro, pit bike or balance bike, whether you need a single replacement item or a complete head-to-toe outfit.
What you will find in this category
- Helmets and goggles — the core of any young rider's safety kit: lightweight off-road helmets with a peak and open chin bar, plus goggles with tear-off posts and roll-off compatibility to keep vision clear in mud and dust.
- Sets — matching jersey and pants combinations in youth cuts, with ventilated mesh panels, reinforced knee and seat areas and stretch zones for movement on the bike.
- Boots — youth motocross boots with buckle closures, a stiff sole and ankle and shin protection for landings, footpeg contact and rough terrain.
- Gloves — thin, grippy off-road gloves that keep bar feel while protecting palms and knuckles.
- Protection and accessories — chest and roost protectors, knee and elbow guards, neck braces, kidney belts, socks, base layers and spare parts.
- Toddlers (4-6 years) — the smallest sizes for the youngest riders taking their first steps on two wheels.
How to choose kids' motocross gear
- Fit before size label: a helmet must sit snugly with no rocking on the head, and a jersey should be close but not restrictive. Measure head circumference, chest, waist, inseam and foot length and compare them with the size chart for each item.
- Don't buy to grow into: oversized helmets, boots and body armour move on impact and stop protecting. Buy the size that fits now and check the fit every season.
- Protection level: match armour to how the child rides. Roost deflectors handle stones and debris; full chest protectors with back plates suit jumps and racing; knee guards or braces matter as speeds climb.
- Materials and ventilation: look for moisture-wicking mesh jerseys, abrasion-resistant pant panels and leather or synthetic leather heat panels on the inner knee.
- Boots and controls: check that the sole is stiff enough for the footpegs and that the child can still operate the gear lever and rear brake comfortably.
- Season: add a base layer and thicker gloves for cold or wet riding; prioritise maximum airflow for summer training days.

Frequently asked questions
What gear does a child need to start motocross?
The essentials are a helmet, goggles, gloves, boots, a jersey and pants, plus body protection such as a chest protector and knee guards. Many parents begin with a kit and boots, then add protection as the child rides faster.
How do I measure my child for a motocross helmet?
Measure the head circumference with a soft tape about a centimetre above the eyebrows, then compare the result with the size chart of the specific helmet. The helmet should feel firm on the cheeks and forehead and should not move when the head is shaken.
Are kids' motocross boots necessary, or will normal boots do?
Dedicated motocross boots are strongly recommended because they add ankle, shin and toe protection and have a stiff sole designed for footpegs, which ordinary footwear does not offer.
From what age can children wear motocross gear?
The toddlers section covers riders roughly 4 to 6 years old, and sizes continue upwards through the youth range for older children.
Can children wear adult-size gear?
It is better not to. Adult gear is cut for different proportions and sits loosely on a child, which reduces both comfort and the protection armour can provide.
