If they would be in local store... :( When I was looking for helmet I tried something like 15 brands. Somehow very few fit my head (only 2 out of those 15, and all very expensive $300+ I tried for interest felt just horribly)... :)

oh i'm sorry!

would you consider buying a helmet online?

I had that same problem, but with jeans. I'd try numerous pairs on and like only a few would fit me.

You'll find a good one Kitten_Val!

No, I'd stay away from online hats (as well as for boots - same issue - never can fit them). I ended up with Troxel Orion. It's comfy, but just doesn't look western. I'm sure people at the show gonna roll when I'll show up! :P

It's a nice one you could find on-line. If it would be somewhere around (even with some further drive), I'd try for sure.

in the first website it said it's coming out in April, so i'm guessing sometime after that it will hit the stores.

that stinks. It is expensive. If i rode western, i'd save up my money to get it. Or wait for my next pay check.

very true. I do know some people on here were talking about a western helmet. It's a good idea.
