Great timing… what’s everyone wearing in the big hunters and eq lately? I feel like it’s still a lot of Kask and Samshield, but open to hearing if anyone is seeing different trends.
My Samshield needs to be replaced after a fall and I’ve been putting it off since I have a backup GPA, but it’s time. I feel like my Samshield Miss Shield isn’t always a perfect fit, so open to new ideas.
I also need to replace my helmet – I’ve had the GPA First Lady (by far my favorite), and the Miss Shield (comfy but not vented enough). So any suggestions of a VERY ventilated wide brim helmet the likes of GPA First Lady would be appreciated!! Bonus if it is on sale this week! 
Because am I crazy or did they discontinue GPA First Lady helmets…?
I just bought the EQX by Charles Owens Kylo wide brim helmet. It has MIPS and with the sale I got it for $135 from Dover with a free helmet bag. I’ve had my eye on it for awhile!
i like the Tipperary Windsor. I loved my First Lady. I’m sorry they no longer make them.
I don’t know if they discontinued it, but I have the GPA Little Lady and LOVED it as an alternative if they still make it. It’s a bit round, but a good solid helmet.
I need a new helmet, same as my old one and it came in and doesn’t fit. Same tags and everything. I guess they updated the sizing or something but it’s really frustrating because it was really the perfect fit. Anyone have recommendations for something that fits like the old OneK? I tried on the new Samshield and it was okay fit-wise but honestly felt cheap.
Bump.
Today is the last day for the sale.
Well, I went and bought a Kask. After years of having GPAs, COs, and Samshields, I can tell you that the Kask immediately fit my head once we got the correct size. I was blown away.
The Star Lady tends to fit a bit larger than the Dogma and the Kooki, so size down in that one.
Happy shopping!
