I am looking for a lightweight riding helmet for hacking and schooling at home. The Tipperary sportage, troxel intrepid carbon or aegis safety helmet for starters look of interest. Just wondering where to buy from. Most web links I find are in the USA and involve international shipping! Not ideal if the hat is not the right size and needs returning/exchanging. Experiences and advice on where to buy in the uk appreciated please! Thanks
 
I completely love GPA. so lightweight and cool plus no more hat hair haha! Our car got broken into recently and my old trusty GPA was stolen (who does that ?!) and I bought a new one from Style Equitation and they were fantastic. I ordered the wrong size but returning and swapping for another one was no problem. Really helpful staff, prompt delivery and there was a sale on so bonus!
 
On the troxel website there is now a link to battles, which are distributing some of the troxel helmets in the UK. I have a troxel spirit and love it! Like the look of the intrepid too.
 
I have a Casco that I love, really lightweight and comfortable.

Easily bought via Ebay from Germany, they are adjustable and thus buying the right size is easy.
 
I have an intrepid that I bought from the states, but you can get them on eBay. Sizing wise, they're probably the best ones to order online as being adjustable they should fit! :)
 
Don't laugh, but my friend uses a cycle helmet at home. It has the same safety standard as a riding hat. The air goes through it and keeps my friends head cool, plus it is so lightweight.
