The price doesn't really matter I just want a helmet that looks good and isn't really tight. I usually put a hat on under it and sometimes headphones..... Any ideas?

just bought the Smith Maze for the same reasons :) Good room for fitting a hoodie underneath because you can take out a lot of the "stuffing" in the helmet

Helmet is really individual item, because you must have 100% compability of shape of your head with inner shape of helmet.
Don't buy this item with prepaid and post delivery, you must try it before paid.
You can find hyper tech helmet for super price but it doesn't fit well for your head.
Most helmets that I tried in shop was tight for my head, only Salomon Bigade is fit well and comfy for me.
And IMHO most helmets of all brands are small-fit, for example my head is 57-58cm, but for comfortable using I need to buy 59.5-60.5 cm helmet.

personally, I like the poc receptor bug. it's kinda expensive, but is definitely the safest and best looking park helmet you can get IMO

I've had a few POC receptor bugs and I like them a lot. I say "a few" because I've used them in the summer and the heat caused the foam to detach from the outer shell. BD warrantied and replaced them for free of course. And when that happened I got to choose a different color and size if I wanted to.
Goggles fit perfectly under the helmet too.

Looking at the receptor bug when they come into my town. They look really good. Got a Salomon one, can't remember the name, but it's pretty good
