Charles Owen Helmets?

I think that I have settled on a Charles Owens helmet for my new helmet. My current one squishes my forehead and gives me a headache. SO I tried on a Charles Owens today, and OMG it was nice and cushy. Is it worth the money?

Yes!! I love my GR8! So comfortable! I have stopped wearing my new GPA because it gives me a migraine, even though it fits correctly.

I LOVE the co helmets. I currently have a GPA for shows which i love and would get another for schooling but they are soo expensive and i have an IRH for schooling that HURTS my head. So as soon as i get my first paycheck this summer i am buying a co helmet

I just got myself a gr8-I was in the tackstore and it was just sitting there. And it was so pretty. And omg. I couldn't resist. So I coughed up the money.

Totally worth it, imo-I forget I'm wearing it when I ride.

Love them! I had a GR8, but I thought it looked a little bulky, and decided I wanted the more traditional velvet look for showing dressage. So I bought a Whitaker (from DiamondRio, actually), and love it. It fits perfectly, the leather harness is butter soft, and it's nice and low-profile while still giving good protection.

I am definitely considering a CO helmet for schooling, also.
