if you like the baker take a serious look at the salomon brigade helmet. i just got it (have had a bern baker for the last 4 years) and its a perfect helmet IMO if you like to take the liner out and wear a beanie under instead.

the salomon beanie comvertable system is awesome. no tacky velcro to fray your beanie. they put the hooks side of the velcro on the liner pieces instead of the other way around like most helmets do.

i'll look into that but does anyone know the helmet that is covered in like a red denim and is literally like a baseball cap. i think RED makes it but i cant find it anywhere. i saw it at mount snow. it literally is a visor helmet with like a reddish denim over it that is supposed to replicate a bb cap

Go to a shop, try them on, remember to bring your goggles and a beanie if that's how you plan on wearing it, and see what one fits and looks the best.  Just my two cents.  I have a Bern Baker and I love it, I have crowbars and they fit and look fine with it.  I've taken quit a few falls and have been fine.  It's a good helmet, got it for $50.
