Bern makes some decent ones with mips

MIPS isn't objectively better. If you have hair, the helmet can slide, which is what MIPS does. As long as you're not bald, you'll likely be better off with more foam/cushion instead of the MIPS layer taking up that space.

Got to meet one of the head engineers at MIPS and he confirmed hair and a beanie is fine under a helmet and adds less friction in addition to the MIPS. So anyone who said different is a nerd.

I wear the new Oakley Mod that looks pretty skate style.

Previously had the Giro Ledge, looks good too.

Pro Tec obviously looks the coolest but probably doesn't do much...

Cool to know might just go Protec snow or Macon
 
Oakley mod1, smith maze, giro ledge, poc fornix. Just take out the ear pads of whatever helmet you get and you basically got it. Poc fornix comes with vents that you can open and close but it’s def more $
 
Giro Ledge. I’m on my second, the first one did its job and saved by brain housing group when I bumped into a tree.
