Get one of these and the ground will be too afraid to even think about touching your head again

Smith maze MIPS. Most important that the helmet fits properly. Sorry no beanies allowed underneath unless they are extremely thin.

Another for the Giro Ledge mips. Fits well and the adjustable portion makes it super snug. Can buy Bluetooth headphone chips that fit in the ear slots which have decent sound, take phone calls well, and last all day in any temps. The most I've needed is a skull cap but half the time it's warm enough without anything.

I have an Oakley Mod1 and love it. Whatever you get, make sure it has MIPS. MIPS helps save you from rotational impacts which are incredibly dangerous and can leave you paralyzed and shit. Also replace the helmet every 4-5 years even if you never hit your head, and ALWAYS replace it after it takes a good hit.

If the goggle strap come between the foam and your dome, it could theoretically cause an issue. Helmets and goggs fit everyone differently though
