I am looking at upgrading my show helmet over the winter to prepare for the '22 show season. I tend to be pretty conservative, but my horse is naturally blingy (chestnut with four white stockings, a big blaze, and a belly splash). I will going traditional with my apparel - white breeches, black coat (maybe a touch of sparkle on the collar), black tack and boots. I’d love to put some bling on my helmet, but keep the base black.
I tried on the One K Defender Celestial at Equine Affaire and the fit was pretty good, so that is currently at the top of my list. I also fit well in the Charles Owens helmets. A friend sent me a link to the Harry’s Horse helmets that are much more comfortably in my budget, but I wonder about fit.
