Excellent combination of features for low price. Very light weight. Easily adjustable for a wide range of head sizes and hat/balaclava thickness (underneath). Headlamp attachment simple and straightforward. Comfortable chin strap system. There are a few vent holes designed into the shell to let some air in, but not so much that it lets in too much wind on a cold day. I have nothing bad to say about this helmet. It even looks pretty good in a trad sort of way. I wear it for all my ice and alpine climbing and I just put it on and forget it's there.

BE CAREFUL with the plastic part that holds your head - in the back by the tightness adjuster... mine broke after a little bit of banging about in a back-sack. I reattached it with some super-glue, but I was pretty shocked that it snapped it off so easily. Similar Products Used: None |
