CraigHew Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 OK, I realise that this might not be to everyone's taste, or even many people's. Bought as a birthday present last December I only got to use it in the Westfield for the first time yesterday morning. 6:15 am and 2 degrees C. For the last 6 or 7 years I've used a variety of beanie hats, the better, warmest ones bought from "Guy Martin Proper" on-line shop. Anyway as I don't really care what I look like so long as I'm warm I ordered this from "greycar" (link below). My god, it's like having central heating for your head. The neck flap makes a difference too. Not cheap but then it is a very well-made quality item even if I do look like Chubby Brown's grandad. Just thought I'd share my findings. https://www.greycar.com/product/long-neck-bomber-sheepskin-flying-helmet/ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labrat Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 My Dad bought on for riding in my Westfield. So far I haven't tried it, sticking with my 'road kill' Yukon hat instead (camo version of the one Rush Motorsport just put up) Warm is warm at the end of the day. I might have to add a neck flap...

Andrew O Byrne White - Ireland AO Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I actually find putting a hood up on whatever jacket I'm wearing is a really effective way to keep warm, but I also wear a baseball cap under the hood, so when I turn my head the hood turns too!
