Bike Helmets That Look Like Hats

Super cool, but too expensive.

Can you get one with a propeller on the beanie? Now THAT would be cool!

My DH found these last night. They only sell them in Germany and Denmark though. We tried to see if we could order one online, but the online company wanted 899 DKK, which is 168 USD, and that was before shipping! No thanks, they're not that cool. Although I'd pay plenty more than that if I thought it would actually get DH to wear a helmet...

They look like rollerblade/skateboarding helmets to me. Maybe they are just calling them biking helmets?

I thought there was a difference in how biking helmets and skateboarding helmets are constructed, to protect you in the different types of impact.

The skateboarding helmets I get to check out at the rink and also my own skating helmet, are quite flexible shells, and the foam in side is a totally different kind of squishy foam from my biking helmet styrofoam lining.

Makes you wonder.

Looks like a BMX helmet to me.

You could slap a Tilley hat on your BMX lid and be stylin' in a Euro way!
