When trying on helmets, take your beanie, goggles and whatever else you would usually wear on your head, to get a good idea of how your helmet will fit with your gear.
Wear your hair the same way you usually would with a helmet, too. The last thing you want is to get home and realise your helmet and goggles aren’t compatible, leaving you with a massive gap.
If it’s your first helmet, try some different goggle/sunglasses/beanie/ear-flap combos to find the most comfortable (and aesthetically pleasing) fit.
Some people wear their goggles over their helmets, some prefer them under – it’s totally up to you!
Don’t feel like you need to leave the ear-flaps in either – the chances of getting a tree branch through the ear canal are pretty minimal, and you can usually hear better with a beanie under your helmet instead.
