Has any1 ever tried this helmet on? Curious about how it fits. It looks sick in pictures but just nervous about buying a helmet without trying it on first but no shops carry them.

Also, when wearing goggles under your helmet, do you have to wear a beanie under it too?

Thanks yo

hey man, don't know too much about the beanies or the goggles underneath but i tried on a shiv today. super light, pretty low profile, sweet design, can look really cool or kinda wierd based on what you look like (head/face shape). but i think i might get one... if you do plan on doing a beanie underneath go a size up for sure though

you dont need to go up a size if ur rocking a beanie under it, as all the liner is removable to make up for that. it fits well, and wont look weird with the goggles on the outside, with the magnetic goggle holder u can rock it up top like normal, or sag them down to the bottom, or take it off if u want to rock the goggles under.

all in all, dope. rounder fit than some of their other helmets, and no dial adjust, so just measure ur head and size accordingly.
