Charles Owen AYR8 Helmet
In the helmet design "space race," the new Charles Owen AYR8 has reached new heights in equestrian cool with its mesh covered ventilation apertures. Other technical features include the Grpx harness and an anti-microbial, silver ion-embedded headband. Riders with narrower, oval-shaped heads love Charles Owens' signature low profile style and gently rounded brim.
The red helmet at left certainly makes a statement, but why stop there when Charles Owen is offering a wider range of custom color combinations than you can even imagine? We'd love to see photos of your most creative custom helmets!

I just got one and the fit is amazing! So comfortable I hardly knew I was wearing a helmet during the last clinic I attended - which means 5 solid hours - and the thing was brand new! Molly you may want to also have a look at the new stirrups I'm sporting: http://www.vtosaddlery.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=VTO&Product_Code=SSSI&Category_Code=SDLFIT
While they look sort of the opposite from the magnetic ones you recently wrote about - they stay in exactly the right position so even if you 'drop' one - it's still right where you left it!

Hi Marti - Thanks for your comment and great to hear positive feedback on the helmet. Helmets have certainly come a long way!
Cool stirrups! I have seen a similar version in the jumper ring.
Most of all, glad you are taking safety so seriously..and that safety and style don't have to be mutually exclusive!
