My husbands head measures 22 inches should I stick to 1 on the helmets or go to 2?

personally, I would go with the 2. If he decides to climb in the cold, it will be able to adjust larger so he could still wear a beanie under the helmet. But it will also adjust smaller if he decides to shave his head for the summer.
