I am thinking about getting the Smith I/O goggles with a Smith Holt or Maze helmet for the upcoming season and I am wondering if anyone else has a good set up that I should consider getting, money is not an issue as long as the goggles aren't like $400+. +KKKK for comments!

Dragon APXS with a white smith maze. I don't like the regular APX because they're just way too big

I find that bern fit my head the best. I got a hard hat without the brim for this year, and I'll go with my all black splices

I am a proud owner of a POC Receptor Bug helmet, but I'm looking at a pair of Electric EG5's for next year.

I have the protec classic and don't mind it, especially because it's cheap as shit. My goggles are the older Oakley THalls.

Yeah they're sweet, but they looks better with different lenses. I didn't get the black ones.

Agreed, i'm in the same situation with my canopy's and my giro g10's. Looking to replace the helmet with a lower profile one.
