“On paper”, it looks nice enough. But in reality I can imagine it making the rider look like a person with a big fat bald head from afar.

LOL!

I don’t normally care for such a far deviation from normal hunter colors, but for some reason I am mesmerized by this helmet.

Get one. Pocket change.

Haha! I’ll probably never be able to afford one of these. I’m quite happy with my OneK!

I think it is probably high time riding helmets started veering away from trying to mimic old black velvet caps at some level and picked up on the styles and colours available in for head protection in other extreme sports. That said, “nude” is beige, and beige around the face is not a good colour for most people. There are one or two tanned blondes out there for whom this might look stunning. The rest of us, not so much.

What would GM say?:lol:

Personally, I do not need to make my head look any larger than it already is thankyouverymuch. I’m down with different coloured helmets - just maybe not that particular colour.

I like it, would be cooler for hot weather riding than a black helmet. I have a white GPA, so not opposed to light helmet colors at least for daily riding.

I happen to look awful in beige-fluish or anemic, take your pick. It also might make me look like I had a large pimple on my head. I love the helmet, but not the color!

I think instead, they ought to make it in various hair colors. That way, it’ll look like you aren’t even wearing a helmet, and I can look like my hair is the color it used to be before going grey! :lol:

I just don’t really like beige anything. “Nude” colored underwear and bras, for example, which is supposed to be wardrobe staple, I’m distinctly “ehhh” about. And those are hidden, so why would I want beige on display?

I think they should come up with dirt colored helmets! That way it’ll match the rest of my wardrobe!

I’m so pale, I usually just go for white. :lol:

This pretty much sums up my thoughts. Plus the fact that I could never keep it looking clean and lovely.

Blech no :disgust:! On another note I think the dark brown Antares helmets are lovely

Ick, not a fan of the dark brown myself

[ChunkyMonkey]

Ew. The leather itself and the design are lovely, but the color is awful. I’ll stick with black, thank you.
