I need a new one - I like my brain! :)
Pref a skull cap.

I just havent a clue where to go to get a decent range to choose from and a PROFESSIONAL fitter - Not someone 'opinion' whether it is too tight or not!!!

I actually live in West Ox - but would be happy to travel.
Can anyone reccomend somewhere!?

I also would like to try a HS1 (OH says if I get the best saftey equipment I'm allowed to carry on jumping!) (Fit depending obviously)
 
I wind up having to trawl around quite a few as I seem to have an odd shaped head!

Whatever you try - make sure you walk around with it on for a good 20 mins and also put it on and take it off yourself so that you are happy with the feel of it.

I have been happy with the service I recived at Mangam and webb in stroud, derby house at moreton, countrywide in bourton on the water and also colne between tewksbury and glos. Maybe take a look online and see where stocks what you want (and call to confirm they have stuff you want in your size to try) before you set out!
 
We've had hats fitted in Jods Galore in Henley and Robinson's in Basingstoke, both stores v impressed with proper fitters who were clearly well trained, although Jods Galore didn't have the range in the right size they admitted they didn't have anything that fitted my daughter (she has an unusually large odd shaped head, but a HS1 did fit), likewise Millwheel in Binfield nr Wokingham also had a fair range but again nothing in the right size that fitted at the time we went. Robinsons do have a very wide choice of hats.
 
I've had great hat fitting from Country Equestrian in Poundon (although I think they only sell the Champion range) and Two Times Tack just outside Long Crendon. Both have really knowledgeable staff who took extremely good care of making sure my kids and I were properly fitted. Hope this helps
