Crash Hats

[connie1288]

Having somewhat squashed my old one at Brigstock I am looking for a new one.
I know it all depends on the shape of your head but was just after peoples experiences of the different makes.
My old one was a champion ventair but it seemed to sit very high on my head, although pushed down properly but was very comfy!

I just have a bog standard (kids) Champion, but Re the ventair sitting high up - I got measured for a new hat by the Champion bods at Badminton, and they said that the Ventairs do sit like that- but that doesn't mean it didn't fit. I prefer a hat that sits a bit further down.

Yeh it fits but just never felt 100% secure, i have the problem that dont like them too far down due to the glasses!!

Being a hat squasher too, I like my Charles Owen J3. In fact the new one is even more comfy than the last one.

I really think I should be getting a loyalty bonus from them! 3rd hat in as many years!!! (or maybe I should stop landing on my head)

Really like my HS1 find it really comfortable and forget I am wearing it, but as you say everyone is different

I love my champion ventair because it is so light and airy and comfortable, but OH loves his HS1. Horses for courses I suppose. I just happen to have a 'champion' shaped head, but its not for everyone.

I;ve got a Charles Owen Pro II and love it, but i think people either have Champion of CO shape heads (champion just ont fit me) so might not work for you.

i love my HS1 too, enough to have 1 for the yard too. LG one is fab for xc but not everyone's cup of tea...!

I love my HS1- actually wore my glasses with it xc schooling today and it didn't squash them!
