Use as an everyday helmet??

Absolutely. It has the added bonus of giving added coverage from rain if that is a concern where you live. I was very happy when I first got this helmet and I have only come to like it more with time.

I haven't worn my other Giro helmet since I got this one for $119. I wore it today in 32 degrees with a thin skull cap. Was awesome. I think it is a great lightweight helmet. The looks are not for everyone. The shield is not for everyone, and I wear my sunglasses sometimes instead of the shield. I tend to wear the shield when it is getting dark soon because it's easy to snap back on upside down and have it out of the way.

Yes I use this for all my rides, minus mountain biking. Light weight, great with the shield, feels better than previous helmets!

Use as a everyday helmet with sunglasses and no shield and with shield on races or just when I want to show off � seriously...you can use it as an everyday helmet. ..Best helmet I ever had !!

This helmet is NOT for active football play and would provide no protection from hard contact. It is only a replica and in my opinion primarily for display. My 8-yr old had to remove the decorative padding to put it on and there was quite a bit of jostling once on. As costume wear it's fine but not for football play.

I would consider your riding conditions ( traffic, city or country ) and your riding skills. Then make your own determination as to which helmet would better serve your needs.

It could definitely be used for skiing both with the head strap/helmet mount or the chesty mount as done by most of the team athletes. If you go any lower where it will be constantly exposed to the snow like on a ski or the side of a boot, you would want to keep it dry so the waterproof housing would be a better choice. Depends ultimately on whether or not it will be getting wet.

It is definitely not a mini helmet. It is just for play, shouldn't be used for serious football game. I have about a 60 cm diameter head and it is pretty tight going on but I get it on and it feels good. Your size might be questionable if it would fit. Hope this helps.

I would look for another option like something designed for a helmet. Some of these comments made me laugh--funny:)

I think a small would fit. It is supposed to push your checks up a bit but my helmet does not do that at all. I mean I wear it and its comfortable as long as I dont go over 100mph because if I do the helmet pushes the front of my face in. I even think if you get a medium that it would be fine and possible a little more what you want but dont take my word for it. I will not buy a helmet offline again. I would suggest going to an actual store and trying one on to get the perfect fit. I hope this helps.

I have. The other day it was 92 in the valley out here in so cal and I wore this helmet. It felt slightly warmer but I think my biggest issue was when my head got itchy there were no vents to scratch. They do have a new helmet coming out in the fall called the Giro synthe. It's a semi Aero hybrid between the air attack and aeon. It offers ventilation and an aero feel with a less comical look. I would hold off to get that helmet (and am going to add that to my repertoire when it's released).

I'm not sure they'd be good for athletic use, especially under a helmet. They're a little bulky. Also, depending on your how large your ears are may determine how secure they'll stay on. I have smaller ears and find that they don't stay on as securely as I'd like.

I wouldn't wear it in place of a helmet and I don't think it will fit over top of a helmet......I used it solely for splatter protection.

Yes, you could wear these under a helmet. Decent sound, easy to set up, easy to operate once you get the buttons down.

Just go buy some strong velcro. I got some at Home Depot. The helmet clips don't work well and are prone to break. I've been using the velcro for 2 years now and it's still working great.

Yes, I would suggest the miller helmet over a cheap one. And yes, I own both a miller and a cheap one from HF.

I wear a cheap $20 Schwinn helmet with these + glasses for over an hour ever day. I find it pretty comfortable, but my gf didn't like wearing these with her sunglasses, which have chunkier arms around the ears.

probably not... as I understand it, the helmet is to be quite form fitting to be effective & purposeful. That is how mine is I mean. The head phones do sit of my skull about a 1/2" - 1" but stay in place because of how the ear pieces are designed. I guess someone with a larger head might feel these are tight??? I just think they'd be uncomfortable under a helmet. Also, I would not want to loose that much hearing from using the headphones while riding. These are pretty powerful. Strong & sound great. But I would use some judgement on making sure I can still hear in most circumstances. I guess I'd say one would have to try them on....

I wear it under my helmet, it's great for that. Since I have an expensive college degree and years of useless trivia buried in my brain, I always wear the helmet over the skull cap, smooths out the bumps on the road better.

It would allow space to fit some light padding and still fit. i also have a large head and its plenty roomy without the padding. the plastic is actually pretty stiff and durable. shouldnt bend unless you apply a lot of pressure. I would think it would crack if you tried to bend it. but its decently strong. not safety helmet strong, but strong for a look alike helmet.
