That's fine if you have a Shoei shaped head. Mine's Arai shaped.....

I've an Arai, used to have a Shoei, both good helmets.
Standard test is as they would be expected to perform in a typical m/c accident ie vertical drop about 5 feet.
That's all.
The Arai's have a much much stiffer area in the region below ears whereas most others can be squshed together.
