Great alternative to standard bike helmet
I'm from the old school when you didn't wear a helmet riding bikes/scooters but then again drivers weren't out to try and kill you when you did ride back then. Hence the purchase of the helmet. I personally do not like the style of bike helmets so I wanted one that looked more like a hat and this works perfectly.
Helmet has a nice leather like feel, is lightweight and fits my head with a scarf on. The strap adjustment was a bit tricky but I finally got it to fit firmly.
The padding is comfortable and didn't make me sweat during use. I haven't fallen with it on so I'm not sure how well it will protect you head but the inner shell is similar to that of the hard hat baseball helmets so I know they can take a ball being hurled at about 80 to 100 mph, I'm pretty confident it can handle a topple off a scooter going 20 mph... I personally don't want to find out... Lol.
Overall item is well made and I believe it is a good purchase.
UPDATE : JULY 16, 2021
Fell off my scooter on June 15th face down. Helmet took front fall pretty well (front of rim is scrapped up but my head is OK... My hands and knees are jacked up but my head is A - OK👌🏾) Glad to know the helmet works.
