This is the key, Janice - head shape.  I really like my Tipperary but
Karen, who has a rounder head, doesn't like it as well as others.  I
was lucky being at Equine Affaire in April because I could try on
every kind of helmet made (and did) and was able to find the one that
fit me best.  I have a long head from forhead to the crown and usually
have to wear a man size hat - most helmets look like a huge bowling
ball on my head.  The Tipperary was the best for me.

Hi:

I like the Troxel Dakota.   It's so light weight & comfy for my head that I
don't even know it's there.   It also sits lower on my head so I don't look
like I'm wearing a mushroom.  They have a lighter sand color which is cooler
for the summer  & a "grizzly" which is a darker taupe for the colder months.
My head is more oval shaped BTW.   The women in customer service at Dover
are great & clued me in to the different head shapes & fit in the different
brands.  They are the ones who steered me to the Troxel Dakota 3 years ago.
