i'm looking for a helmet (anywhere under 45 dollars i estimate would be my budget) that is steezy and goes well with my outerwear. look here:
jacket:
thttp://www.predatorwear.com/companystore.aspx?range=49&product=340&color=5&line=6&sizeid=
pants:
http://www.predatorwear.com/companystore.aspx?range=49&product=368&color=86&line=6

my skis are the latest 171 thrusters (salomon) and thats about all you need to know. if anyone has any helmets that would look good with my stuff and function well obviously, then advertise to me.
if you have the colors lime green and grey that are in the pictures then you have a bonus. thanks!

cute thread.


go with a grey helmet, its not likely youd find a lime green helmet and if you did that would be sick..

i have been known to make the absolute worst shopping decisions ever, so i'd like to know what you guys think of the green helmet mentioned above as an option to go along with my outerwear? yay or nay? it's not exactly the same color.

I have the same one and i LOVE it. So comfy. And the color, even though it is not the exact same green, will still look dope.

haha buy those two ^^ and as for the encore idono if id do that.. cause if they dont match right they look like crap IMO so I would just go with like a white or black where you cant really go wrong

then  just tag it with neon green stickers or something

get a RED
a white one and sticker that mofo
would be super sick.
my brother has a Hi-Fi
i think he payed 39.99 for it.
it is a round "mushroom" style helmet.
if that is the look you are going for, then the HiFi is super comforable and RED makes really legit stuff.

Honestly, if you don't like the color of a helmet, paint it. They sell spray paint that bonds to plastic and also spray primer that bonds to plastic. Tape up everything that you don't want painted and put a lot of layers on and it looks great. I've painted all of my helmets and you never know the difference.

And if you crash and the paint chips, just keep the can and spray it again.
